Winners in Bold

Here's Mine.

Blackburn v Bolton
Westhoughton V Saints Wild Boar
Chorley v Newton
Waterhead v Eccleston
Bury v Hindley (Come on the Broncos i wont be too surprised if some do do better and others will not be as good as predicted. Aint that like any competition though?

as i said though, i think it's going to be really close throughout. Hindley though are far to strong if last year is anything to go off. They could easily hold there own in divisions above this. Rochdale finished strongly last year and i am guessing that the demise of Milnrow will have only bolstered there squad.

I'm not sure who you play for but guessing Newton and i think you guys should have a decent season an all.

i'm guessing teams will have strengthened, i know we have at Bury.

we have strengthened really well and for the first time in a while we had 25 lads battling for 17 shirts when we named the squad so things are sharper and harder but then we will have to see how things pan out starting tommorow. im glad you tipped westhoughton to finish bottom because we start against them so hopefully we can get 2 points to start the season off.

we had you guys in the cup last year but you couldnt raise a team, good to see you've strenghtend your squad, I dont like seeing clubs go to the wall.

We played Westhoughton a couple of months and they do have a half decent team. I think there a bit light on numbers and experience which i think will go against them. On the other side of the coin though and they could easily finish mid table if they have strengthened as Saint me said. I really do think it will be a really close league though which has to be good for us all in div 5.

i wouldnt hold much hope of it being on at our place mate been raining a fair bit in wigan but u never know, its good to see a bit of common sense and getting the fixtures reversed if poss.

yeah be good if the game could still be played but not sure what it's been like up there and how your pitch holds up.

i wouldn't be playing anyway so in a way it's 1 more game i will be able to play if it doesn't take place
