Before moving onto the 09/10 season, let's congratulate Stuart Harding on winning last season's league. It was a closely fought affair with Stu overhauling Yu right at the death by 34 points after Yu had lead for so long.
So moving on, what thrills and spills will the new season bring? Will it be another 2 horse race again with Stu and Yu or can Ando, Scottie, Roundy and Lun make a challenge? Or could there be a surprise package to challenging the big boys.
MANAGERS IN SO FAR:

Yu Kung's Saucepan*** -
Will be looking to get over the disappointment of coming runner up to Stu yet again. Losing by 34 points this year and a ridiculous 1 point the year before. He will be one of the favourites again, just has to keep focused especially at the tail end of the season.

Stuart Harding's White Line's FC -
Champion for the last 2 seasons, Stu will be trying to make it a hat trick but like his height, he'll probably come up short as fired up arch rival Yu is unlikely to let it slip away this season.

Anthony Cousin's Roundy's Rompers -
Will be looking to get over a bad season. An experienced campaigner, Roundy's ability to romp ended limply when he found himself unable to take a rampant Ando from behind. As for this season, there will be a lot of fire in Roundy's ample belly. He wants to prove that he belongs amongst the elite.

Scott Eddington's Tinkerslucky 11 -
It was a bit of a yo-yo season for Scottie, bouncing up and down around mid table. He's started pre-season early this year with some serious scouting and we're not talking the Baden Powell kind that you normally associate with Scottie. Will this extra homework bear fruit, we have to wait and see.

Sophia Luvara's AC Sophia -
We welcome newcomer Sophia to the league. She says that she'll be bringing a bit of Serie A sophistication to the league. Which probably means picking 11 defenders. It will be interesting to see how well this debutant does but her presence will add extra pressure on the other managers as they will not want to get beaten by a girl.
Neil Maguire's Macca's Team -
Joined Meadvale mid season, Neil, the mystery man of the league, thought he would do quite well according Roundy but found it tougher than expected. Lets see how he copes from the start.
Looking at how everyone is scoring in the early stages of the season it looks like it will be close at the top.
