Congrats on promotion! Any chance of a look at how the other English leagues ended up at the end of the season?
Appendix: The Year in Football/Futbol/Fußball/Calcio/Soccer, 2014-2015
League Two:
One reason why I feel good about not getting kicked out of the Football League next year is that only two teams get relegated in League Two.
League One:
Yeovil, Gillingham, Accrington and Bradford will be joining us in League Two next year.
Championship:
Bolton had ten points deducted for going bankrupt. Sorry Bolton fan who reads this! Leeds is finally back in the Premier League, though.
Premier League:
That's just a weird table. The top 3 look normal, but wtf happened to Tottenham and Arsenal? And Everton has been really good in the last few years, but better than City? And Wigan better than Man City? Also, only 64 points needed for a Champion's league spot, that's the lowest since 2005.
In Spain Real Madrid won the league while Barca finished in third behind Granada. Really?! It's Granada's third year in La Liga! Less than a decade ago they were so low in Spanish Football you wouldn't even be able to play as them!
In Germany Bayern Munich won (of course) over Dortmund and Schalke.
In Italy Juventus won Serie A by just two points over Fiorentina, and Roma finished fourth while those fascists Lazio finished seventh.
Atletico won the Champion's League on penalties over Bayern Munich, which is surprising given that Atletico was pretty mediocre otherwise in La Liga.
