Report

Republic of Ireland international Robbie Keane played in 3 matches for Los Angeles Galaxy in the 2013-14 CONCACAF Champions League, one in the Group Stage where he scored two goals to give Galaxy the win at home to CS Cartagines Deportivo of Costa Rica. He did not play any further in the Group Stage as Los Angeles Galaxy qualified for the quarter-Finals with ease, finishing with 9 points from 4 matches, 5 points clear of both CS Cartagines and AD Isidro Metapan of El Salvador.

In the Quarter-Finals LA Galaxy met Mexican team Club Tijuana Xoloitzcuintles de Caliente from just South of the border from California in Baja California. Despite winning the first leg 1-0 and 2 goals from Robbie Keane in the return leg in Baja, LA Galaxy succumbed 4-2 to go out 4-3 on aggregate. Robbie played in both matches.

Three Mexican teams reached the Semi-Finals and the dominant country in North, Central American and Caribbean Football won the CONCACAF Champions League Trophy again as expected with Cruz Azul FC of Mexico City defeating Deportivo Toluca FC, from a small distance west of Mexico City, on away goals rule after both matches were drawn. The only non-Mexican team in the Semi-Finals, Liga Deportivo Alajuelense of Costa Rica went out to Deportivo 0-1 and 0-2.

Report

Terry McFlynn played in four matches for Sydney FC in the AFC Champions League in 2011. The Northern Ireland National was sent off in the first group game against Suwon Samsung Bluewings FC of South Korea after 33 minutes of a 0-0 draw at home. Missing the next two matches due to suspension Terry returned for a 3-2 victory away to Shanghai Shenhua of China, although he was again cautioned, this time getting a yellow card after 19 minutes. He played in the next two matches, losses to the Suwon Samsung Bluewings FC in Korea (1-3) and Kashima Antlers FC in Japan (1-2) as the Australian team crashed out of the competition in the Group Stage. Terry was substituted after 81 minutes of the loss to Kashima Antlers FC. Suwon Samsung Bluewings FC won the Group and Kashima Antlers FC also qualified for the last 16.

Sadd SC Doha from Qatar, who had to go through the Qualifying Rounds to qualify for the Group Stage, eventually won the competition 4-2 on penalties in the Final versus Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors FC of South Korea, after a 2-2 draw. Sadd SC had some good fortune along the way, however, as a 1-0 loss away to Foolad Mobarekeh Sepahan FC in the Quarter-Finals was overturned and awarded 3-0 to Sadd SC due to Foolad Mobarekeh fielding an ineligible player. Having lost the second leg also 1-2 at home, Sadd FC would have been eliminated if it was not for the 3-0 awarded victory.

The Atlantic League (6 teams from France, Denmark and Netherlands) was won by Dragons Rouen of France with 18 points from 10 games, well ahead of second-placed Flames Bleues Reims, also France. The East European Hockey League played a 28-game schedule between 8 teams from Belarus, Ukraine, Latvia and Lithuania and was won convincingly by the Belarussian side Neman Grodno who won 26 of their games.

About

European Inter-State Ice Hockey Leagues give teams in smaller countries a chance to compete at a higher level on a regular basis as well as playing in their own National Leagues. The East European Hockey League (Ukraine, Belarus, Latvia, Lithuania), Alpen League (Austria, Italy, Slovenia), Cup of the Lowlands (Belgium, Netherlands), Atlantic League (France, Netherlands, Denmark), and Balkan League (Romania, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia) were the European Inter-State Leagues of 1996-97. Each of these countries had either competed in the World Championships in 1996, either in Pool A without qualifying for the Final Stages (Italy, Austria, France), Pool B (Latvia, Switzerland, Belarus, Denmark, Netherlands), Pool C (Ukraine, Slovenia, Romania) or Pool D (Lithuania, Yugoslavia, Belgium, Bulgaria).

Report

With the USSR already breaking up, CSKA Moscow won the Supreme League in 1991, and Rotor Volgograd the First League. The Second League was broken up into three zones, the winners being Asmaral Moscow (Central), Okean Nakhodka (East) and Karpaty Lvov (West). The Third League was divided into 10 Zones – The Last winners of Armenia (Syunik Kapan), Azerbaijan (Kazar Sumgait) and Ukraine (Neftyanik Aktyrka) as parts of the USSR or Russia were decided that year.

There were also two Central Asian Zones which would soon gain independence as five separate countries: Uzbek/Turkmen/Tadzhik Zone won by Traktor Tashkent and a Kazakh/Kirghiz Zone won by Aktyubinets Aktybinsk. The Siberian Zone was won by Lokomotiv Chita and the four European Russia Zones won by Zhemchuzhina Sochi, Spartak Anapa Rubin Kazan and Prometey Dynamo Sankt Peterburg.

With Georgia, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania already independent and running their own leagues, the USSR Football system would break up fully at the end of the year along with Communist Europe itself. The only league which geographically belongs here of those Nations is Georgia, which was won by Iberiya.

Points Sytem: 3 Pts Win, 1 Pt Draw, 0 Pts Loss (All Leagues except Reserve Leagues). 2 Pts Win, 1 Pt Draw, 0 Pts Loss (Reserve Leagues).

Report

Liverpool FC won the Football League Division 1 in 1982-83 with 82 points. Champions of the Lower Divisions were Queens Park Rangers (Division 2), Portsmouth (Division 3) and Wimbledon (Division 4). The top Non-League Football Champions were Enfield (Alliance Premier League).

Reserve League Champions were Queens Park Rangers (Football Combination), West Bromwich Albion (Central League Division 1) and Nottingham Forest (Central League Division 2). These were Professional Leagues for Reserve Teams of Football League teams.

Amateur Non-League Football Champions were: AP Leamington (Southern League Premier Division), Cheltenham Town (Southern League Midlands Division), Fisher Athletic (Southern League Southern Division), Gateshead (Northern Premier League), Halesowen Town (West Midlands League), Burscough (North West Counties League), Blyth Spartans (Northern League) and Wycombe Wanderers (Isthmian League).

There was no automatic promotion and relegation between the Football League Division 4 and the Non-League Football Leagues. By this stage the Alliance Premier League had become the basis for the National League as we know it today (Level 5), sponsored by Nationwide (previously Vanarama) and in between known as the Conference (sponsored most famously by Vauxhall).

It worth noting that the Football League (still known as such rather than English Football League) and Amateur Leagues had gone over to 3 Points for a win, whereas the Reserve Leagues still operated under the 2 Pts for a win system.

Report

Dundee Storm and East Kilbride Pirates both put their perfect records on the line in the Final of the first Scottish Claymores Flag Football Association Youth League for 14 to 18 year olds in Meadowbank Sports Club, Edinburgh on 20th October 1996. The Storm emerged victorious thanks to two unconverted touchdowns in the fourth quarter from Quarterback Adam Smith, which helped the Storm come back from 8-0 down to lead 18-8. East Kilbride’s Quarterback James Keogh (an Irish name) scored a late touchdown himself, but it was not enough for the Pirates as the Storm won 18-14 to take the title. Roddy Greig scored East Kilbride Pirates’ other touchdown in the first quarter, with 2 safety points their other score. Storm’s Wide Receiver Graeme Anderson had given them hope by scoring on a long pass for the best touchdown of the match in the third quarter.

Ireland’s Emmett Waldron, born in Cork played for the Scottish Claymores in the World League of American Football / National Football League Europe League from 1996 to 1999, and part of the role would have been helping out with the Youth Programme of the NFL, including the Scottish Claymores Flag Football Association Youth League.

Season Information

Points System: 3 Pts Win / 1 Pt Draw / 0 Pts Loss / -4 Pts Forfeit #

Tie-Breaker: head-to-head aggregate score over two matches. (C) Champions (R) Relegated to Division 2.

Report

St. Vincent’s of Glasnevin, Dublin, were the dominant team in Irish Women’s Water Polo from 2016-17 to 2018-19, winning all their league matches every year, indeed their B team, promoted at the end of 2016-17 from Division 2 proved even more formidable than their A team, having won all matches in Division 2 in 2016-17 they proceeded to win all their games in Division 1 in 2017-18, including their A team, defending Champions, twice. With the teams shuffled around for 2018-19 and one of the St. Vincent’s teams back in Division 2, they again won all games that year.

St. Vincent’s were finally defeated in 2019-20, in their fifth game of the season, 9-10 by Clontarf, although held an advantage over Clontarf of a 9-0-1 Wins-Draws-Losses Record to Clontarf’s 4-0-2 Record when the League was cancelled due to COVID-19 Coronavirus Pandemic government restrictions. The winning streak lasted 40 games over 3 and a third years, including the B teams’ dominance of 2017-18, although technically they were separate teams, albeit from the same club.
