Predictions for the season

Premiership
1. ADVANCE COURIERS
Still the team to beat and whoever finishes above them wins the league
2. STAR & GARTER
Will push Advance (and the others) all the way and Himan’s goals will see them go close

Division 1
1. NRI
By all accounts they have strengthened, and they have a strong winning mentality at the club. I see their consistency as the key to them winning the division
2. FC AZZURRI
Think they will go close in their first season, I take them to chase home NRI
3. LEICESTER FOXES
Would have held their own in the Premiership this year, but still a strong bet for promotion

Division 2
Not including Polska’s chances in this as don’t want to tempt fate! So…
1. AYLESTONE 2012
Don’t like listening to rumour so loath to tip them (only 2 of the ‘star’ players mentioned all summer have so far signed on) but if the club resembles anything like Robinson’s Garage then they should be strong enough to do a Foxes
2. HUNCOTE SUNDAY
Showed their class last year with their run to the Billy Walton Final, and having added to the squad I fancy them to go close

Division 3
1. ST MARKS
Will romp Division 3 and go on from last year. Club on the up with a winning mentality, it will start getting serious next season…!
2. SEATON
Should do well in Div 3, calibre of players suggests they will more than thrive in this division

Division 4
1. HARBOROUGH HOTSHOTS
One of the most consistent sides last season, play for each other and strong going forward. My tip to win Div 4
2. NPE
Will renew their rivalry with Hotshots from last season, I think they might just be pipped for the title based on what I have seen in the summer


Division 5
1. HUMBERSTONE 2000
Always a threat with Gifford up front, his goals worth a 10 point start. I think they will storm this division
2. WIGSTON RANGERS
Have goals in them with Dan Mitchell up front, but also have plenty of other talented players in their ranks, can’t see them not finishing in the top two.

Division 6
1. INTER MIVAN
Strong summer for them and they have impressed a lot of people, will be a force going forward, and more than capable of keeping things tight at the back
2. SPORTING BIRSTALL
Have seen a lot of them in the summer, and they are a good, young side full of attacking intent. Slight worry that inexperience will cost them in some games, but they will score plenty of goals and will be entertaining to watch this year

Division 7
Know next to nothing about this Division, so a bit of a stab in the dark:
1. THE HARROW
2. FRIAR LANE

Not including Polska’s chances in this as don’t want to tempt fate! So…

theres a reason for that mark, how do you think they managed to get downgraded from 1 to 2, you will soon see who starts signing for them once the season starts

ha ha wouldn't be the biggest surprise in the world would it? let's hope they can't afford their pitch fees then because doubt the star players would pay their way or am I wrong?

all about opinions mark but us lks will finish higher than birstall ul c that after we played em sunday

Div 7, friar lane have got a lot of new players and now play some very good football, are also a lot more physical. Can see them winning div 7.

true. to be fair i know nothing about your team even though you have developed a strong reputation!

will b up there m8 am surprised u fancy birstall even above other sides like white eagles and red admiral they got gd side 2

don't doubt it just seen Birstall few times this summer and impressed every time

took few beatings though mark havent they?

other week 8-1 just seen all bout opinions though il know more sunday

That was against a higher division team though so i wouldn't read too much into that

cheers for the confidence

Hopefully we can go far, having older players will help us develop a bit of maturity!

Division 3

Will romp Division 3 and go on from last year. Club on the up with a winning mentality, it will start getting serious next season…!



nopressure then mark lol hope we can live up to the billing , tbf dont think we will romp it tho

Birstall been struggling with some games pre season because of numerous injuries to key players and work commitments. Only had 11 players for most friendlies and even then some of those players were friends of players who played so we didn't have to cancel. Still got a few missing injured on Sunday, but also got some quality coming back. See what happens on Sunday, carn't wait. Cheers for the comments mark.

ul give us a gd game sunday then pal
