After 30 rounds in the league and 5 in the play-offs, we have our first Home & Away champion.
Fittingly, the Grand Final was fought out by the top 2 in the league: Jalfrezi Rs and kensalr.
Both had Newcastle for their away win but they only drew at Leeds. So no points scored. Jalfrezi Rs had Chelsea for the home win but they only drew with Forest. kensalr had Crystal Palace who beat Bournemouth thanks to 2 goals from our very own Eze.
So kensalr wins 1-0 and takes the crown. Congratulations. Commiserations to Jalfrezi Rs who was top of the league but couldn't bring that form to the play-offs (apart from beating me in the eliminator). kensalr actually beat Jalfrezi Rs twice in the play-offs so no-one can begrudge him the glory. Well-played.
That brings our first season of the new Home & Away format to a close. Thanks everyone for playing. I hope you enjoyed it and I look forward to running it again next season.
