And the season has ended! A win for the 2s and losses for the 1s and 3s ends the season, though all three teams scored relatively well in terms of fantasy team points. It has been a battle of the Sparks for the last month or so and in the end, Lewis comes out victorious by just 5 points. He also claims Manager of the Month for August/September. The battle at the bottom was even closer. Luke Desave dragged himself
In the penultimate week, a high scoring week bodes well for Lewis Sparks as he stretches his lead to 23 points, while Arron Campbell slips into third place – though really it’s a two horse race for the win between the Sparks. Meanwhile, at the bottom Luke Desave has finally overtaken Chairman Mark Salter to scrape himself off the bottom – however, with just 2 points in it, that’ll still go to the wire.
