What the record shows
No founding year, no champions and no former clubs are published. What is documented is the ending: the league's domain frames a host that returns a permanent redirect to a vendor's homepage.
That is a history of a kind, and it is the one most amateur leagues end up with. The seasons happened, the records were kept on somebody else's server, and the server changed hands. Every season recorded on High Cheese stays at the league's own address, which is the difference between a league with a past and a league with a dead link.
