ICC Fantasy League 2016 Overall Standings

Gornall's Gonads have shot to the top of a very close league table, with Over The Wall in hot pursuit after this week's round of fixtures. Sam McAdam and Callum Cook's sides are less than 100 points behind, whilst the rest of last week's top 10 play musical chairs. Luke Brooksby returns to the top 10 after a bad week for Kieron, Forever The 12th Man?

Sam Starsmore continues to show his immense strength by holding everyone else up once more at the foot of the table.

Paul Roberts and Max Dawson's sides are the biggest climbers this week, climbing six places each. Meanwhile, Andy Dixon fell the most places apart from the aforementioned team managed by Jason Green and Kieron Horsfall.

May Manager of the Month Standings

Ben Clarke keeps his place at the top of the leaderboard as we head into the final weekend of May. However, his lead has been halved after Week 6, with Phil Smith enjoying a brilliant weekend. Declan Rothery maintains a top three place, and these three look like the only challengers for the crown this month.

To put it into perspective, the difference between 1st place and 4th place is 600 points, which is the same as the difference between 4th place and 31st place.

Kieron and Jason's plight in the Overall Standings is highlighted by their position of 34th place in the May Standings.
