OlympicIRL 4,826 Posted July 31, 2019 Author #2 Share Posted July 31, 2019 I wasn't sure whether to make a general thread for the European Team Championships or one specifically for the First League. But as I want to have somewhere to discuss the First League, I opened one anyway, so I'll let the admins decide. Anyway, the First League contains the nations of quite a few Totallympians so should be good scrap.... expecting @Werloc @hckosice and @heywoodu, to be interested at least Werloc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlympicIRL 4,826 Posted July 31, 2019 Author #3 Share Posted July 31, 2019 (edited) So it's more complicated than usual this year. Instead of the 3 up, 3 down in terms of promotion / relegation, with changes in the amount of teams in the Super League for 2021, it means only 1 team will be promoted, and 5 teams will be relegated to the Second League. This makes it much harder for nations like Ireland to stay afloat this year. Russia also are still ineligible to compete so they will be one of the 5 relegated teams and only 11 teams will take part. So you need to be in the top 7 to remain in the First League for 2019, the winner gets promoted to a new 8-team Super League, and positions 8th-11th fall through the trap door to the Second League.... God help us @Werloc and @hckosice European Team Championships 2019 - 1st League Rk Nation Pts 1 Belarus 0 2 Belgium 0 3 Hungary 0 4 Ireland 0 5 Lithuania 0 6 Netherlands 0 7 Norway 0 8 Portugal 0 9 Romania 0 10 Slovakia 0 11 Turkey 0 - Russia - Edited July 31, 2019 by OlympicIRL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wumo 2,808 Posted July 31, 2019 #9 Share Posted July 31, 2019 I wonder how many of you I will see in the Second League in two years? Spoiler dcro, hckošice and OlympicIRL 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis 600 Posted July 31, 2019 #10 Share Posted July 31, 2019 (edited) Just posting some predictions without even really looking into the teams. I think it will be pretty close though between the teams. Norway might have the advantage from the home crowd.
