Gothmog has only played one season, in Division 3. On average, it crashed in about one game in each four-game match, and lost most of the others. It was lucky not to be demoted to Division 2 or to be disqualified from the tournament. How you can describe this as "racing up to Leo's Premier League" is hard to understand. Also, BigLion, playing in Division 4, still has a long way to go before ending up in Division 6. I haven't been very lucky with my bets lately, but I am willing to bet another beer that it is never going to happen. :-) Tord
