If there was another column in the Player Directory for "Town/City of residence" and people were honest about it, there would be uproar.

Well, out of the 7 players Walsall had in the top 20 last season i know at least 6 of those live in the West Midlands, and very possibly 7. 5 out of the 7 play for BCPC and 4 out of the top 5 Birmingham players do too. It"s a local club for local people. ;)
It just so happens we have a lot of good players!

I don"t doubt you for a second Andy, if only every club was the same. ;)

We do have players from further afield but they were only recruited once other teams started recruiting people from the 4 corners of the earth and began playing the numbers game. Personally i"d be more than happy to lose any of our players who aren"t from the area if other teams did the same as i know we"d still be left with a very strong team.
All in all it"s going to be an interesting league this season and i"m looking forward to the challenge. Not sure about having Steve Redfern in our team though as he struggled enough last year knocking out his own team mate as he thought he was Walsall. This merger is really going to confuse him! :)

ya bugger Andy!
I was several sheets to the wind, it was 1am, and BCPC had so many on the final table I just lost track of who was Walsall and who was Bham ;)

Congratulations to West Midlands on winning Season 5 league, and the foreseeable future leagues.
It was a miracle for Solent to run Walsall so close last time, but I can"t see it happening again, now that the dominant team in the league has been reinforced further. Not a very good decision.
Perhaps some of the other captains would be interested in clubbing together for a prize of some sort so our players have something to play for?
