Little Bowden
NPE
Pollard Crusaders (E FC )
The Firs Old Boys
The Wheel
White Eagles

First Season in this division after a dramatic fall after our first year in the alliance. Whats everyones opinion?
Who are the stand out teams to look for? Who could struggle?

Ive heard mixed things about firs old boys, are they black dog? are they last years aylestone?
Heard Little Bowden meant to be pretty decent and friar lane will be ones to watch

From the teams i know......

Komrska - are a good footballing side, better than last years relegation showed

Kibworth - have a lively strike force, aging a bit at the back, were going well last year until the wheels fell off late on

Hotshots - Some decent players, add some consistancy and cut out the silly red cards they could do well

Little Bowden - good Re-building season last year, if they keep hold of Barby up top will score plenty with a few additions could be one to watch.

EFC - If they still have Kyle and Reece not to be taken likely, good set of lads, were disapointed last year and looking to re-group, i'm sure they'll bounce back this season if they get a bit of confidence.

The Wheel - from our games against them last year i'd expect them to struggle, managed just one shot in the two games against us, but that said they didn't conceed too many and picked up points from somewhere

Firs OB are ex-Black Dog lads

I think friar lane look like they've got a set up similar to oadby owls. So will have plenty of youth. Time will tell but very much looking forward to the new season

Little Bowden - A good side, expect them to do well if Simon Barby stays.

Hotshots - Very good team, they COULD do well this year.

Kibworth - Tale of two halves they started well, finished terribly. We beat them 4-1 at the end of the season.

NPE - Don't let the fact they are from New Parks scare you, they are a great bunch who will compete for the title this season.

well said hellboy

FC Kibworth - When they settle into a game they are a great side but when they are up against it they become a very dirty team.

Harborough Hotshots - I agree with Fish, if they cut out the stupid red cards they will do well. They had a strong start and finish to season but in the middle they were in a bad way.

Little Bowden - Top for 5 months last season, tailed off towards the end of the season due to a big confidence knock from 15 point deduction from resignations but will push for promotion next year.

NPE - Very strong, vey solid at the back. They struggle for goals from what I remember, so if they bring someone in there then they will be pushing for the title.

Not too sure about the rest!

Not sure you can blame the 15 point deduction for your blip at the back end of the season. i think everyone of the top 3/4 must have lost a similar amount of points but still carried on.

Think you will do well this year if you show the consistancy you did over the first half of the season.

Also think hotshots will do well. cant comment on the new teams

Just waiting to see if anyone out there wants an aging goalkeeper (Pez) and an even older centre midfield (me).

Will keep in touch when we are sorted.

Kibworth FC, the signings they've got coming are ridiculous!

What do you mean by ridiculous??

Must mean younger than their 90 year old defence!!

Couple Kirby Muxloe lads, one lad who played in Div 3 for Foxes, couple ex Kauto/Willows

interesting to see how many of them want to travel the best part of an hour to a home game every few weeks

Moving grounds...

To Kibworth?

I don't think Kibworth will be playing in Kibworth next season, there aren't any pitches spare! Interesting to see where they play though. Kibworth will be a good team though this season. Bowden could be good too if they can just hold on to some early season momentum. Hotshots could possibly be in the title race. And I expect Friar Lane to be a good outfit too! NPE are a good bunch of lads too and have every chance of going all the way if they can just improve their goal difference a bit!

The black dog did become the wheel but one of the lads last season wanted to start his own team with his brother there has only been 2 wheel lads left to join the firs so the wheel is still the original lads from last season with a few added lads . i know iam bound to say this but i think we will be challenging for the title this season we got off to abit of a rubbish start last season and never really recovered plus we chucked no end of games away from really positive positions but thats all being sorted over pre season and with the few new lads we have managed to get signed on things are looking good for us needless to say i for one am looking forward to getting the season up and running.

fc kibworth to win minimum two trophies, they have some quality coming in definitely

I know a few lads going to Kibworth, will be a force trust me, lol.

Oooo hell boy that wud be just our luck. Leaving last years joke of div 3 to div 6 full of hunters :$

SAFF LOUNGE DRAW WITH ROYAL OAK IN CUP, YET LOUNGE GO DIV 3 AND ROYAL OAK DROP TO DIV 6, TOTALLY OUTRAGEOUS

We did only get4 points all season, losing key players in process

Plus I heard ur boys have got some quality in this summer. That game was way back before.xmas
