Very
little change in playing personel but the addition of Martinelli is
sure to strengthen the defence. In past seasons the 1st half of the
season has been their weakness and if they are to challenge for the
title they will need to reverse that. They do own 5 of the 9 skill
level 10 players in the top division so the quality is
there.

Most sides winning Division 1 have
performed very well in the top division. Delnoch's performances in
the League cup last season suggests they could follow the trend.
They have been steadily building for promotion to the top flight for
a while so they should be well prepared. Whether the lack of any
real star players is a help or a hindrance only time will
tell.

Last season was just minutes
away from being the most successful in their history. Braindead's
men were denied the title in the 90th minute of the last game of the
season but they showed they are now ready to step upto the plate and
challenge White Riot's dominance. They also reached both cup finals.
They appear to have a good blend of youth and experience so expect
another good season.

After another
pre-season re-shuffle the Gunners will be looking to launch another
title challenge. Last season they were well in contention until they
faded to 6th in the final few weeks but their produced their best
performances in both cups. The goals of Milhazes will be missed but
the defence looks strong, superbly marshalled by skipper Önder
Özgültekin. Confidence will be high after some good pre-season
results.

Last season was a bit of a
transition season for the Hotshots. As a result though, with their
large group of emerging, talented 19-24 year olds, very few sides
can rival their strength in depth. In Martyn Lines they also have
the striker with the most league goals to his name out of anyone in
this division.

Having spent 7 seasons trying to reach this
division, Smallville's first priority will be to avoid relegation.
Their hopes are likely to be based on a strong defence. The big
question remains over their front line. Will Martin Romlin and Rob
Sully be good enough to cut at the top level?

The
rejects made an excellent start to life in the top flight last
season, out performing the quality of their squad again! Their
success has been built around their almost unbeatable home form and
if they can maintain that then they will be pushing towards the top
half. If they can't they could struggle. Midfielder Archibald
Fletcher is likely to be the key man.

Likely to be the
force to beat yet again. Ultimately White Riot only missed out on a
"dream treble" thanks to a 2nd half comeback by Dutch Warriors in
the league cup final. Despite getting closer to total dominance of
all the major honours, there were signs that other teams
(imparticular Dutch Warriors) were starting to catch up. They still
poses an unbelievably strong defence based around the inspirational
Carl Kit. Can they make it 4 titles in a row and can they break
their league title
duck?
