A new and worthy Champion! <--Back
picA new and worthy Champion!

With the Norwegian League being one of the toughest in ManagerLeague, it was only a question of time before the great trophy of Champions League would be brought up north. And for those of us who have been around for a while, the team Skjoldar is not exactly unheard of.
Prior to this latest trophy, Skjoldar ((TEAM: 3969)) has already won 4 Platinum Cups, 2 Golden Cups, 2 Silver Cups and 7 Bronze Shields, making the team one of the truly big ones.
Skjoldar, managed by PlayRoy, has been playing since season 2, so he is definately one of our veterans.
I am very proud to call him a true Champion, and I think I speak for everyone when I call him a worthy champion.

His run towards the finals included defeating the champions from the previous season, Milky Way ((TEAM: 11078)) from the English league, in the semifinals.
He then went on to meet Real Boludos ((TEAM: 12150)) in the finals, a match he won 4-0, but the match was more even than the result would indicate. Both teams were producing chances, but only one of them managed to get the ball into the net. It is also rumored that trying to take Skjoldar on with a 5-3-2 formation, and kicking the ball high upfield, was not the best tactic Real Boludos has chosen.

Skjoldar is also the current leader of the Norwegian League, but he was knocked out a bit early in the league cup, which means he might take home 2 trophies this year, but not 3. We see it as a good thing, so he still has unfinished business here in ManagerLeague.

Congratulations, PlayRoy, with a great achievement, and we will mail you the trophy during the coming season-change.

pictureI hve to admit there asnt much of a match in that final particulary compared to the past finals as ony one team really turned up a 4;0 win in the final is somthing to be proud of though and after this team constantly reaches the champions league it was certainly Skjolders turn to be the champs good lcuk to both teams in future seasons

picturei think then 4-0 its strange on a champion league finals...
it should be 3-2 or penalty/extra time or something else NOT 4-0.
the shame...
