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?

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!

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.

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