Manager: Carles (Catalunya)
Twitter name: @cduzpalau
Since: 2010
Last season: 14th
Trophy cabinet: Empty (highest league position – 9th in 2010/11)
Sympathies: FC Barcelona
Darts music: Cant del Barca
Outlook: Retained the majestic services of David Silva for £10m than last season, but the manager only bought four more players at auction before leaving faster than an Alex Santos commute once he discovered his choice of wardrobe would mean buying the committee a round. Filled by Kenna HQ using the accepted procedure, the team now contains former Still Don’t Know Yet defender James Collins.
