    I think the typical response to this thread would be something along the lines of – “I don’t give a monkeys”

    Once you’ve been there you always have an interest in what’s going on.

    Would like to see ex FL clubs like Chester & Macc come up. Kiddy seem to be bottlers and I don’t think Hereford or Darlo are near enough yet.

    However you’ve got some battlers in there like Chorley, KLT and the Nash that could crash the party.

    I’ll go with top three of Macclesfield, Kidderminster and Chester (not necessarily in that order) with Chorley my outside bet.

    I think Chester were unlucky last season (they played us at GP) and if we’d have gone up as Champions, I think they would have won the play offs. They would be my tip. Macclesfield have splashed the cash so they would be my second tip.

    South Shields are now in to 9/2 second favourites from their 16/1 season opening price.
    Kidderminster are the 10/3 favs.

    Chorley are banging the goals in… 16 goals
    Shields are virtually impenetrable… 1 goal

    It’ll be interesting to see how the season progresses… luckily from distance this season.

    Chester leaking goals like a rusty colander!

    By Blues mate doesn’t think they’ll be challenging at the top this year.

    Chorley doing well. Kings Lynn up there but seemingly a lot of investment so need to be.

    Chester certainly had a poor start.

    I don’t give a monkeys about that league. Never want to see it again! Hereford have dropped right off.
