A very tricky one to call, I don't think there's a standout candidate to win the league at all. Expect the usual suspects to be up in the top echelons in Barnet and Solihull, the two coming down might do ok for once, and a lot depends on the situation at Southend and whether they can keep a decent squad together. A lot of people have Southend down as favourites but for me they still have plenty of work to do with that squad first. I think York will be better next season as well.

Not too sure what to expect from next season, our first back in the National League after seven away, it was pretty competitive when we left but if I'm honest I haven't a clue who will present the biggest challenge to our attempt to avoid a third relegation in a row.

I gather that Southend may be subject to a takeover, with the plan being to sell the land that was bought for a new stadium and redevelop Roots Hall, which will surely result in money being available for players. After years of being a complete and utter basket case their fans deserve better and surely any new owner will set their sights on a return to the Football League.

Will Yeovil make it two promotions in a row, they seem to be a club on the up, with Mark Cooper at the helm. How about the other clubs who have been in the Football League, either in their current or previous guise, surely at least one or two of them will fancy their chance.

At the other end of the table, who will struggle against relegation, four down is a bit of a worry to say the least. The final table from last season suggests that it could be just about anyone who didn't make the play-offs last season if they hit a bad run of form...ouch!

As a Boston fan, I'll settle for 20th right now.
We only finished 6th in a terrible league last season and I'd say only about 3 or 4 of our players could cut it regularly in the conference and I doubt our chairman will want to risk a lot just to finish half way up.
But still massively looking forwards to it even if we will get beat most weeks

If Cotterill stays I won't worry too much about yet another relegation, even with our bunch of uninterested players and off-field circus he had us in comfortable mid-table form for his league tenure; challenging for promotion would be pleasant after a couple of losing seasons but stabilising would do me fine.

They were my thoughts when we were promoted to the ELF. We surprised a few by doing rather well in our first season. Hopefully you will also.
