Manager - Jonathan Hart

The Crofter's main rivals over the past few seasons, the Gang Warily side represents the sports centre where the games are held, and therefore have the luxury of a large pool of staff to choose their players. The first thing to note about the side is that, being that they all work in the fitness industry, they have an abundance of players of first class stamina levels.

This is not to say that they are lacking in skill, Jonathan Hart in particular has tied the Crofters defence in knots on more than one occasion, but their game-plan is based upon shooting from long distance, which is Greg Livermore's forté, rather than predominantly playing a passing game. They also seem to lack defensive discipline at times. This is more than compensated for, however, by the considerable presence of Dennis in goal. In the championship-deciding game of the Winter league 2003, he single-handedly kept the Crofters attack at bay time and time again, with his team-mates capitalising as they went on to win the title. Certainly Wilkins' main competitor for the best goal-keeper in the division.
