Nailed on for relegation this season in my opinion based on their performance last season and signings so far this year. Assume we'd have had some interest in Dylan Wilson if we thought he was capable.

Mason Thomas has been turning out for Bugbrooke in pre-season.

from the match report I have just noticed that R & H keeper was Kyle Swailes whom we had as our back up keeper last season. Going on his display Saturday just as well we never needed him!!!

He was R&H goalkeeper last season and we had him on a dual registration. I would imagine that he was signed as a back up because he is local and would have been difficult to find a keeper if we needed one at short notice

Dylan's got the best chance because he's young, rapid and very coachable. He was part of the Community teams a few seasons ago.

Ty I know well from Irchester, he may be a bit of a step for him but he's another lad who wants to get better and is coachable.

Mason has played for the first team, he has always been really unlucky with injuries.
