The Super Cup 2016

By  Marc Renshaw 2016
Axisweb is the official platform for the Biennial Super Cup 2016 Knockout. Over the next two weeks, I'll be posting all the latest news from the tournament which has all the markings of the best yet. Sporting Radio Pundit X: 'It's gonna be a real coupon buster and you can hear it all here on Sporting Radio. I think Pointeso are the favorites with their hi-net worth...' 'Tranquilayers', 'Universo Collunteen' and 'Pointeso' may sound like international football teams but in fact belong to a fictional football super league. The Sporting League was formed in 1985 when Renshaw developed an interest in the production of league tables and statistics. 'From 2002 - 2014, I transcribed results from the leagues onto a series of panels using biro on paper, the resulting data was shown in an exhibition at The National Football Museum , Manchester. ' He goes on, 'Since that time, the league has faded from my consciousness. I do however, keep tabs in a preripheral sense via a biennial knock-out tournament - The Super Cup, This event is an amalgamation of The Sporting League, The Colbreck league and a selection of invited teams from further afield.' The Super Cup champions and holders are Pointeso who lifted the trophy in 2014.' 'It's good to keep tabs with the project, although I've been working on other projects, this tournament gives me an opportunity to re-engage for a short time. I was 28 in 2002 and now I'm 42, so I feel two/three weeks on every two years is suitable.' Sporting Radio Pundit X: 'Aye, this is gonna be a coupon bustin' tournament if I ever saw one. Mark my words, those Colbreck League teams have been around for a lot longer than their affluent adversaries of The Sporting League. I think I'll put a few quid on Breckindale reachin' the semi's, but I can't really see beyond Pointeso or Bayerns at the mo to be honest...'
