2019/20 Co-Ord Round-up Part Eight - 1st-4th


1st: Trusted By Millions (up 13 places on last season)
Eventually a big turnaround after last season's poor showing. Twelfth after week 11 with half the points of the leaders then only lost three league games after that. That level of consistency ground down and eventually saw off the other contenders. It’s Beef’s third title and coincidentally each one of them has been secured on the last day of the season.

What happened to last year's star player? It was another good season for Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Star Player? Gabriel Jesus (12 goals)

2nd: Stanley Athletic FC (up one place)
Taking over from Athletico Phoenix in mid-season new boss Aaron made the FA Cup semi-final came close to taking the title. Will surely be a formidable opponent next season.

What happened to last year's star player? He was this year's Star Player too.

Star Player? Virgil van Dijk (five goals, 13 cleans)

3rd: Claymore Athletic FC (up six places)
A big improvement on last season, the PCMT and the FA Cup on the Chippenham Park sideboard but it could have been better. Seemed set for the treble but a seven point pre-lockdown lead wasn’t enough after Sergio Aguero was injured.

What happened to last year's star player? He made it his again for the sixth straight year.

Star Player? Sergio Aguero (18 goals)

4th: Aardvark Abacus (down two)
Still in the top echelons but 'never nearer' as they say in horse-racing. A late charge fell six points short but Ady will go into next season in optimistic mood after his post-lockdown form.

What happened to last year's star player? Jordan Pickford had competition from Dean Henderson.

Star Player? Son Heung-Min (Ten goals)
