Season 75 - Are you ready?

Palace Casuals Season 31 Review.

After the relative success of the Runner-up spot in last season's League competition, the Management set a relatively easy target of promotion in a Champions League slot as the main target for Palace Casuals for this season. The first half of the season was characterised by a set of very erratic results, and after the 11th Round of matches Casuals were in 5th position, and facing a couple of difficult matches to round off the first half of the League season. Victories in those two matches started off a run of one defeat in the remaining 15 matches, which saw Casuals rise to the top of the table and hold that position until the end. Although it could be said that Casuals attained their final position with the assistance of the leader for the first 3/4 of the season, whose season ended disastrously, gaining a paltry 4 points out of their last 7 matches.

Casuals Champions League campaign saw them win their first 5 Group matches before losing the final match to the best-quality team in the Group, but they still won the Group outright. The 'Top-16' round proved their undoing, as they came up against a team with slightly better quality and their run ended there.

Relative success in the Cup, a rare progression past the Preliminary Round was followed up with a win in the Qualifying Round and defeat against a fellow League team in the Play-off Round.
