Hence our withdrawal before any of our games were scheduled to have started.
Don't try to wiggle out of it. You withdrew *after *a very lengthy series of decisions about the structure of the league. *After *the divisions were formed, a division made based on having you as a top team in one of the divisions. *After *the first fixture was released, and thus the league in full effect. Just because you got a bye on the first fixture does not mean that you somehow pulled out early enough to not fuck things up.
