As no one has done one yet, I'll take up the mantle of writing the Season 51 preview.

Firstly, congratulations again to BC Zalgiris on back to back titles! Judging from his posts in the Season 50, he's not done yet so it looks like he's the one to beat. Congratulations are also in order to the five newly promoted teams; two have been here before in Bournemouth Drunkers and BC Snaiperiai whereas it's new territory for the other three in Hope Springs, CB Abastos and Midnight Stallions so a warm welcome to them.

The blue side looks competitive again with Doncaster Hawks looking like the early front runners. It looks close in behind that between Arsenal98, Optic Fibres, Lidltallfellas and Tide of Fire. Three of the new teams are still recruiting so will obviously become more competitive once they've signed some players.

As stated previously, BC Zalgiris looks the one to beat and sets the standard for the red side. Stinkilemons is the closest challenger and still remains strong with Marichal leading the pack whilst Durham Wasps have sold two players early so its questionable whether they'll be as strong. This gives a good opportunity to all the other teams in what looks a highly competitive Great 8. Hopefully we can see something similar to last season.

To finish up I've included the usual poll, so please submit your votes and good luck to all new and old managers with the season ahead!

Poll:  Who will be crowned Champions in Season 51?

it's unfortunate I lost the first game: due to the site being down I missed Corral being sold and I missed I got assigned as a rival to Zalgiris, then because the site was mostly down I also could not change GDP and Tactics I set up early last week when the schedule came out. It is what it is, but yeah unfortunately Gully selling both guards doesn't look like he will make Zalgiris pay for Crunching.

I assume Zalgiris will use the same strategy as usual: keep buying and firing scrubs and buy later in the season a couple of older high salary players, but he doesn't have the same money as 2 seasons ago, so you or Bergkamp or whoever is leading the blue side can actually do the same and beat him at this game if you are going to have HCA. Older players with quite high salaries are now quite cheap in fact. I might do that myself and disregard HCA, actually. Both my trainees will be over 130 TSP by the end of the season and I have a 435k training exemption...

Hey! It's a pleasure and an honor to be here for the first time :)

I have to say, i'll be like the first half of the season or so quite inactive because i'll be undergoing surgery soon. So take advantage now, because then i'll go with everything!

Nah just kidding, i just want to stay up here for a while, keep training and make some money.

Good luck everybody!
