I'm a little bit confused by the following:

3 players, same record in terms of wins and losses, but the scores are not proportional to the "Difficulty"

Code:
          Record    Difficulty       Score
Coach A   n/0/0        1.00          xx.27
Coach B   n/0/0        1.06          xx.25
Coach C   n/0/0        1.02          xx.17

(these numbers taken from the Championship page - I'm not about to go an calculate what the difficulty is for each coach by checking on the actual matches).

This just strikes me as a bit odd when I look at the formula that is used to determine it. Anyone got an explanation for why it would be the case?

(an explanation other than the fact that I like pie .. which could just be the reason Razz)

The difficulty displayed is calculated by the TS scores of the teams you've played against (their total ts/your total ts).

However the difficulty actually used to calculate your score also includes (their total CR/your total CR). This explains the differences.

At least that's what I assume is the case, I noticed this discrepancy the first day after the implementation of the new formula.
