Happy with two good wins in the cups, now onto another tough league game. Away to the champions, doesn’t get much harder.  Only two teams with 100% record still this season, something has to give. Would be delighted if we could both remain unbeaten after today, although you never know what could happen.

I've changed the reserve league in England slightly, from now on it will be known as the Central League and the winners will receive a trophy for their trophy room and prize money will be awarded depending on where you finish in the final table.

The ref is ready to start the games...
