Dortmund II gets promoted in the 4th division West, having battled Lotte and Gladbach II the whole campaign. Most of the other clubs fell off the pace early and basically had a whole season worth of “garbage time”, since nobody is getting relegated this year. Of course this is the league of the legendary Wuppertaler SV, who unfortunately sucked right out of the gate. Towards the end, WSV at least showed some signs of life, and forward Christian Knappmann topped all German 4 divisions with 30 goals. Next season, the West clubs will form a traditional Nordrhein-Westfalen based league, and the Südwest clubs will move to a seperate division. This promises to be fairly attractive for the fans.
