After six months Andrew Davey took over as manager and the team were entered in the Regional League.

The Packet have had a successful five seasons in the league and are now starting their third season in the Premier Division but have rung the changes for this season.

After waning support for the team last season a new manager, Martin Smith, has been appointed and has brought with him a host of new personnel.

One new player to watch out for this season is the striker known simply as Sanjey who is expected to net his fair share.

Some of the old guard do remain at the club though, veteran midfielder Frank White will be lining up in the centre of the park as usual and Colin Trotman is expected to start the season between the sticks.

With a new manager and new blood on the pitch The Packet must improve on their position of third from bottom last season.
