Just seen the divisions on the Bank Quay site. How come Woolston are division 2, thought you'd be division 1? Also not sure why Folly Lane are premier.

Hmmm...we don't know why we are in Div 2 either. Feels like a backward step especially when we have beat teams above us. Obviously just not flavour of the month. Can't say we are too happy.

I'd at least have you in over Rochdale Cobras and Leyland and probably a few more of those.

I don't think they like us, which considering it's a brand new comp is quite a feat!

should be interesting....this could be good....how many times do a s!!1*t team get a crop of good young players and batter everyone in the division...9 times out of 10 clubs know when it going to happen so by asking teams were they feel they should go its miles better I for one would rather struggle with the big boys then batter the teams in the lower divisions besides this could be a close hard fought RL comp...it could also be a disaster!!! NO ONE would put all the right teams in the right divisions for the start of a brand new comp!!!! summer 2013 will be a much fairer structure...IMO

It's provisional - let them know your issues and hopefully they will resolve. On first glance there are a few club's that appear to be a division or two out either way. To be fair it's a big job gauging standards across a full Winter season, short interim and last summer's season.

BTW few clubs in the entry division who I would have expected to be in "proper" divisions - OSJ, Bolton Mets and Adlington. Is that right?

Think they got dropped down because they called off too many games.

Teams that were entering were asked where they thought they should be. That it hard to do when you don't know how many divisions there would be or who was in them! Hey ho, we will either be heard and moved or will have to win promotion and earn our place. It must be hard to start a brand new comp.

I'm assuming the draft divisions aren't confidential, so here we are. If anyone knows otherwise, tell me and I'll happily remove them with my apologies. We're happy where we are, we're likely to have another batch of new faces, a few seasoned campaigners have retired, plus a few regulars are now working some Saturdays so all change for us again. Looks like Cobras have been dropped into Div1, which is probably correct!

Leigh Miners Rangers A are the other club in a surprisingly

low division.

Not sure how Newton Storm are so high either or how Folly Lane are premier.

I hope this is only a draft because some of these are a joke. We have been put in division 4 even though we have won 2 leagues in a row. Brook 'a' are in the league above even though we've beat them every time we've played them over the last 2 years. Other teams like Newton and Chorley been put ridiculously high as well.

Why don't they just adopt the current NWC league structure & all new teams start at the bottom like its always worked. Worked ok for probably the strongest team Bank Quay etc. Golborne in div 1 & not prem isn't right.

dont know how they've got miners that low when they was in 1st division when they was winter and they've just won the short season only losing 1 game,but st annes have been poor for last 3 or 4 seasons,so i think they should be in before a couple of teams

Does anyone know the draw for the war of the roses ???

You're from Wild Boars if I remember rightly? Which division did you ask for?

I don't get Newton or Chorley's high placings either. Newton have been through turmoil in the last few years (I think they even folded for a time last year?) and their results have reflected that. Chorley are still a young side and are strengthening every year but Div 2 is too high for them.
