Manager: Sholto (Wales)
Since: 2008
Last season: 9th
Trophy cabinet: empty (best finish – 9th last season and in 2008/09)
Sympathies: Manchester United
Darts music: Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life – Monty Python
Outlook: Underachievement and a striking resemblance to Norwegian mass murderer Anders Breivik has blighted the Welshman’s managerial career, but this time he looks to have assembled a capable side. Jelavic is already living up to the hype, and Hart, Cashley and Enrique should be good for at least 150 points each.
No Brambles.
