Sporting league: Results Game 6
Pointeso continued their process in the art of myth creation with a sixth successive which kept them two points clear of nearest rivals Bayerns and Tranquilayers.
Sporting Radio Pundit P: ‘We seem to be getting to a point (no pun intended) where Pointeso are becoming a signifier for hipster chique – and their performances continue to cement what I would call a self fulfilling myth. Their logo in combination with the signified of ‘Pointesoness’ all combine to create a kind of mythic beast that we haven’t seen since the heady days of the 1980’s.’
Red Star continued their positive start in spite of limited resources to move up into forth position with a one goal to nil win over Olby.
Red Star gaffer: ‘I was just sayin’ the other day to our board that they need to give it to the summer before we make any decisions about our league status. I mean this is supposedly our last season as we’ve been runnin’ on empty for too many years now – but I really hope we show some resilience in this campaign and prove that we can survive the financial trap door.’

Pointeso showed their new defensive credentials with a plucky performance away to Novia.
Novia boss: ‘We threw all but the kitchen sink at ‘em but they’ve got a much tighter back four this time around. We can take a lot of positives from our performance…I still can’t stand those pretentious Pointeso arty types though…’
Universo held Bayerns one all at home.
Sporting Radio Pundit X: ‘Those two clubs need to be playing for their lives out there, but I couldn’t help but feel that they were content with the draw. I’m telling’ ya…those Pointeso kids are going to be a dot on the horizon. Lets just say I’ve got more than a few spondoolies on ‘em to take the top honours this season.’

Sporting League Results: Game 4
Universo Collunteen made a sensational comeback in a game in which they’d been completely outplayed for a good eighty minutes
If the Universo boss was surprised, that was nothing compared to how the Green Tree army felt. Five goals in the final minutes turned the game on its head, giving Universo Collunteen the three points.
Sporting Radio Pundit X: ‘I’ll tell ya…those Uni supporters were getting pretty wound up throughout the game. I guess they felt frustrated with the dominance of Tranquilayers and Bayerns last season and are desperate for a good start to keep them in the hunt come the business end of the season.’
Novia made easy work of it against the struggling Yop Lane securing a comfortable three goal win.
Novia boss: ‘I’ll be content if we can gets ourselves a top five finish. The league is all about the money…make no mistake about that man. The Novian philosophy will always have a countercultural core but we’ll graft as much as the next team.’
Pointeso shot themselves to the top of the table after putting seven past Haaveno who were left in tatters propping up the table.
