There are so many things I can see happening here, but the more likely of scenario's IMHO, have the I-Ties repeating as side 'A' leaders. Here is where it goes off the map. Firetown and Trollups could be right there, but both are notoriously poor finishers (according to last couple of years) to the season. Sporting, I fear, may face the same post Nationals rash/demises Peg faced unless they've picked up some much needed bench strength. If Sporting were forced to put a cramping JB back into the finals over anyone they had in uniform tells me they're thin. No knock on JB but he's mince. And ugly.... possibly retarded with a slight case of turrets and a hint of A.D.D but I don't want this it to get personal. There isn't a guy on that team I don't like so I wish them all the luck this October. Except, of course, for JB. (see above) That said; they are much, much younger and probably more willing to play it out than Peg seemed to be last year.
I haven't seen Indo/Akal in a year and have no idea who is there, coming back or going. MF have "supposedly" picked up a few players, but that is according to Fletcher and we all know he is a lying wank. Will YBK be back? They did get Emilio(sp) from Sapperton who is a pretty good player and I think started for Sapp last year. Their back line is still on the weak side and I haven't heard of any replacements.
Westside, if the TTP rumours are true, and we all know they are 99% of the time rolleyes: )are in the biggest trouble. No Keeper, and what 7 guys leaving? Ouch.
This year will be tough to gauge as many teams seem to be in trouble and others losing and picking up players. It is almost like there is a salary cap in place in the VMSL, which would make KNVB one of the lowest paid players (waterboys) in the league. I am not going to get into this name calling game with some guy who seems to be whiter then I am even after having a tanning bed at the local ladies fitness world which he belongs too.
As for Side A I would have too but us up in the mix somewhere with some key pick ups and some more on the way after the college season. Near the bottom my prediction is westside as well with how many people have ship off to other pastures.
