Hello, hello! Come in, come in! Don’t wipe your feet, there’s no time. And actually, don’t come in either, you know, lockdown stuff. But we can do this quicker by just shouting at you on the driveway anyway. Utilising the government tier system might actually benefit this speed edition of the rankings anyway, it fits with the LOC nicely, so;
- Tier 1 – the lucky bastards somehow escaping most of the madness
- Tier 2 – the vast majority, enveloped in chaos, scared and confused
- Tier 3 – f**ked
And if you want any more information on the tiers, please visit the government website. It doesn’t exactly relate to the LOC, but its doesn’t really seem to relate to anything else either, so can’t hurt.

- Tier 3
12. The Tuckfards (3-8) Non-mover
Said they were out last week, unsurprisingly they are still out. If we were in Scotland, they’d be rocking tier 4. And, unfortunately, it looks like they are ending 2020 with a bit of a whimper. Bring on 2021!
11. Gridiron Gang (4-7) Down 2
Not mathematically out as such, but equally pretty darn far from in. With Ekeler back and the Lions both close, they could still ruin it for someone else though – and that is basically what being in tier 3 is all about, right!?
10. Patistan (5-6) Up 1
I thought they were out a couple of weeks ago, but they keep surprising me with wins. Much like the team below them though, they seem to be too many wins and too many points scored behind. They got kicked out the club they were in, but found another one open just down the road (yeah, I’m still doing the nightclub thing, even when in a rush).
- Tier 2
9. IKSAN (5-6) Down 1
They were really close in a week with a few good matchups. You feel they needed this one, but the early season form keeps them hanging onto contention. It’s never too late. Unless they lose again this week, then it’s too late.
8. Bear Necessities (5-6) Up 2
Massive win, was fully ready to Tier 3 them, until last week. What a time to turn up and, as the second-high scorers in the league they are still very much (just about) in the running.
7. The Dream Team (6-5) Down 2
And the losses keep coming. The change from early season consistency to just not being able to find the points has been drastic. They only lost by just over a point this week, and posted a good score, but that could be the result we look back on at the end of the season.
6. Tom’s Tyrants (5-6) Non-mover
Ran out of momentum, despite actually having a decent week. The lose doesn’t take them out of the running, but they need a few things to go their way now. Their destiny is no longer in their hands. If they keep scoring the way they have been the last few weeks, it’s possible.
5. Burdettinators (6-5) Down 3
Wow, talk about close. Reckon either coach will look back on that result at the end of the season and realise how critical it was? Burdettinators needed it more and got it, they stay a game away from the division and the wildcard. Seems a harsh drop, but it’s more about what other teams around them did.
4. Buccing the Trend (7-4) Down 1
Not a good score to put up on the eve of the tier system coming into place. Despite the win, league joint record, and holding the wildcard spot, they stay in tier 2. They can’t afford any more sub-80 weeks already having notably less points than their nearest rivals.
3. His Dak Materials (6-5) Up 4
Good win, rest of the division lost, and another great entry to the team name list- pretty much a good week all round. High scorers in the league and now atop their division, they are very much looking good.
- Tier 1
2. U R Gould (7-4) Up 2
The message is easy here, keep winning ad you’re in. This team deserve their spot in the top tier as they have looked a consistent threat since getting healthy, putting together a string of good weeks.
1. Forge Flyers (7-4) Non-mover
Clinging onto the top spot, although they’d probably
have the tier all to themselves if they’d managed another yard. No one is more than a game outside the playoffs, and that includes them. Their points for is just enough to provide a slight buffer.

Right, if I don’t post this quickly, you literally won’t have time to read it. Although, as this is the end of the article, you’d presumably already know whether you had time or not. Unless you read things in a weird order? Now I’m just rambling, definitely no time for that. We’re done here.
