The managers - G to L's

Peter Godfrey - 17th Div 1, 29th overall, 3 MoW
A tough old season by Godders' standard. This being said, Pete was top after the first week, 7th in week 5, he won 3 MoW's but flirted with relegation and had 16 weeks in the lower drawer only getting out of it to safety in week 40.

Mark Gregory - 4th Div 2 (promoted), 6th in Play-Off table, 7th overall, 3 MoW
Mark spent just 3 weeks out of the prize positions, and hit the weekly top mark three times. He was top for 6 weeks and comfortably made the Play-Off's. In these he was a real title contender and was 4th for much of the time. Unfortunately he lost two places and £30 in the last 7 days.

Ben Guarino - 13th Div 2, 30th overall, 1 MoW
He started out as Francey's apprentice which is akin to being Arkwright's from Open All Hours. Looking back that was probably Ben's best form. Ben had a bad start and a crappy end but the middle was quite good. 4th in week 14 and then 15 continuous weeks in a promotion place. He slipped out of the to 10 in week 30 although he was MoW in week 35, which gave him a last push but Ben fell short by a fair few points.

Tim Harris - 9th Div 1, 16th overall, 1 MoW
An early relegation issue was soon resolved after winning the week 7 MoW. Sadly a title tilt never came as Tim just hovered around the Div 1 mid table. However Tim was always pushing and ended the season in a creditable 9th in the top league.

Lee Horne - 13th Div 1, 23rd overall, 2 MoW

Lee carries a big threat and has good title possibilities. This season though Lee found himself embroiled in s relegation fight. He put a good run together after the Autumn nights drew in, but then inexplicably dropped back into the bottom 10 in January and February but was easy good enough to claim a mid table finish. There were two MoW's though when once again Lee showed his fantasy ability.

Ian Kennett - 14th Div 1, 24th overall, 1 MoW
Ian search for prize money looked more imaginable this season as he moved in the higher echelons of the table, although realistically never threatening. He had better luck in the N&R Cup but Ian did cash in in the final week beating everyone to the best weekly score.

Paul & Christian Long - 16th Div 2, 39th overall, 0 MoW
Actually a much improved season for the father and son Brighton fans in Chicago. For a few weeks even promotion was dinner table conversation, but they couldn't keep up their best form, and that is what was required.
