2024/25 Co-Ord Round-up Part Five - 13th-16th

My annual assessment of the WSFFL teams starts with the bottom four.

13th: YTFIB (up three places on last season)

Never looked like propping up the table which is an accomplishment for Julian's outfit. YTFIB were even chasing a top ten place for the first time in six seasons but faded badly with just four wins in the second half of the season. Now that Julian's transfer policy has moved on from York connected players they're could be more to come.

Star Player? Jamie Vardy (11 goals)

What happened to last year's Star Player? Injury robbed YTFIB of Joe Gomez for much of the campaign.

14th: Nil Satis Nisi Optimum (up one)

Never out of the bottom five, a late flurry of wins kept Paul off the foot of the table. Never one to change his team much (see also Wheel Madrid) if his starters aren't firing (or playing) the boss seems happy to keep it that way. An Everton revival was jey to the improved form and will probably be key to next season's finishing position too.

Star Player? Vitali Mykolenko (one goal, 12 clean sheets)

What happened to last year's Star Player? Jarrad Branthwaite had another solid season

15th: Mega Buck Bandits (down four)

Dave's team were bumping along in the bottom four all season and eventually dodged last position with a last day win. It’s 15th place twice in the last three seasons for Dave though. It’s not a positive trend. The Bournemouth connection (Evanilson and Kerkez) served the team well but the boss needs more players to step up.

Star Player? Milos Kerkez (two goals, eight clean sheets)

What happened to last year's Star Player? It was an injury hit season for Nathan Ake

16th: Wheel Madrid (down two)

The Wheelmen were bumping along in the bottom three all season and eventually succumbed to last position for the first time. It's five out of the last six seasons in the bottom three though. The signing of Chris Wood shows that Paul can spot a player and isn't afraid to splash the fantasy cash where needed. Needs to do more of it though.

Star Player? Chris Wood (17 goals)

What happened to last year's Star Player? Thiago Silva left for Brazil.
