Southern Central League Predictions

Post by updiamonds »

Love predictions, :D

Southern Central League (next season) where do you think we'll come.

I think around 7th/8th but challenging the play offs.

If we bring in a few good additions to bolster the squad going forward then I don't why we can't at least be in with a playoff shout come March/April 2016, the vast majority of the current squad has plenty of experience at this level, and plenty of teams seem to come up from step 5 and do well in the first season at that level, I think both St Neots and King's Lynn achieved promotion in their first seasons at step 4 didn't they? And other teams this year like Spennymoor, Spalding (well all right, they've thrown money at it) and Larkhall Athletic as well in the South and West have all done well and have been in or around the playoffs in their respective leagues, so that leads me to believe there won't be a huge step up in quality, though I admit I haven't seen much step 4 football.

So yeah, I'll predict we'll be there or there abouts in terms of the playoffs come April. But we'll see come August where we stand won't we :D

Obviously it will be a lot tougher at a higher level, and I think we'll discover that in the first few games next season.

But I think with a few additions we will finish in a respectable position, maybe even a play-off place.

If K*ttering can win the league, it can't be that difficult can it?!
