The race for the title went down to the wire but no-one could argue that Woodford Wanderers were worthy winners.

CHAMPIONS: - WOODFORD WANDERERS
Record: Pl 20, W. 13, D. 6, L. 1, F. 44, A. 26, Pts. 45
Honours: Champions
Best result: 2-1 vs FC Team
Biggest win: 4-1 vs Brady
Worst result: 4-3 vs Raiders
Clean sheets: 3
Games failed to score in: 0
Best buy: Adam Shafron
Star men: Alex Aviram, Tom Alexander, James Ryan, Harrison Midda
Top-scorer: Harrison Midda
Most-improved: Tom Alexander
WAGS favourite: Mitch Hahn
DC Rating: Deservedly crowned champions after just one defeat in 20. The acquisition of Adam Shafron was a brilliant bit of business to ensure they stayed ahead of the chasing pack. Did enough in front of goal in the absence of Harrison Midda – scoring in every league game - with James Ryan and Tom Alexander playing starring roles, along with chairman Alex Aviram. And once they took top spot, they never looked back. 10/10

2. SPEC FC
Record: Pl 20, W. 12, D. 2, L. 6, F. 49, A. 35, Pts. 38
Best result: 2-2 vs Woodford
Biggest win: 6-2 vs Los Blancos
Worst result: 1-1 vs Faithfold B
Clean sheets: 3
Games failed to score in: 3
Best buy: Zack Neiman
Star men: Zack Neiman, Ben Myers, Marc Hecht
Top-scorer: Zack Neiman
Most-improved: Every player in the squad stepped up
WAGS favourite: Zack Neiman
DC Rating: One of the success stories of the season, and as boss Ricky Lawrence described, second place was “a truly fantastic achievement”. An excellent run-in, boosted by five victories, kept them out of reach of FC Team, Brady and Oakwood. The second best defensive record in the division served them well. Expect Ricky Lawrence to splash the cash as he beefs up his squad for their first season in the Premier. 8/10
