Harrowby, and Oadby join along with us and Bugbrooke stay in div 1.

Looks like a good few games next season, 19 in the league 36 games then!

Lots of new grounds to go and see

I see Shepshed Dynamo and Quorn have been relegated into the UCL Premier from the Northern League Division One South.

Anyway, that's 6 more games than we were expecting is it not? The more the merrier.

Oadby will be the team to beat in our league I think - they reached the 5th Round of the FA Vase as a Step 6 club, and only narrowly missed out on promotion to Step 5.

Saw Thurnby Nirvana (finished below Oadby in the league) beat Desborough 5-0 in the FA cup so Oadby should should really challenge for the league

[Three of Diamonds]

Obviously it's going to be a tough ask to aim for promotion in our first season, but don't the top three get promoted? I see Bugbrooke (came 3rd) asked to stay in Division 1.
Now we know our league make up we can start to plan for entrance fees & season tickets.

I would think Oadby will be favourites to win the division next season. They were very dissapointed to miss out on a top two finish in the EML, which would have put them in the UCL Premier, and I expect they will strengthen their side for 2012-13. It will be good to have another team in our division who "everyone wants to beat" ;)

Has previously been the top 2, 3rd only if one of those could not be promoted. I think they were prepared to let 3 up this time because of the resignations.

Plus, I notice they have a few fans, they got many 100+ crowds and got 350 at the end of last season, so maybe a few away fans when we play them. Also very pleased they've expanded the league from last season, means 4 extra games to see!

And aren't Shepshed Dynamo and Quorn a little out of the UCL's boundaries, I'd have thought they'd be put in the Midland Alliance tbh.
