As I'm bored at work! : Who would you rather went up with Dover? I'd rather see Tooting out of the way next season as they've looked the stronger side of the three left in the promotion race IMO.

Agree. The teams from this season that I'd expect to see challenging for the title next season are:
Tooting Dulwich Worthing Ashford Town (don't see it myself, but someone mentioned it last night) Kingstonian
And maybe the likes of Sittingbourne, Leatherhead, Walton & Hersham and Whyteleafe.
We've also got to contend with Folkestone coming down plus one other (unless the promoted teams - Crowborough, Merstham and Thamesmead are juggled around), as the other three are all north of the river. The likes of Tilbury, Aveley and East Thurrock could be forced to "do a Dartford" and fit into the wrong league.
So, all said and done, we'd be better off without Tooting in our division next year.

I was thinking the same to myself today.
I think Tooting will do it and I can see Cray falling away as most the team are old mercenaries on a last payday. The Plod won't be as good next season but Ashford and Dulwich hit form at the end of the season. Walton & H won't be what they were at the start of the season and we are lucky that there's only one relegated from the Prem to our level. I think they'll be up there with us too though.
Kempster's league he posted looks likely and if the promoted sides are the standard of the ones who came up this year, we'll be ok. I think Crowborough will lose a few players as some of theirs were with Eastbourne last year and couldn't be bothered with Ryman league football.
I think Ashford will be there as their last third of the season saw them rocket. They've a lot of travelling £££ men as well on a post Dover payday and might flit elsewhere.
Take Tooting and Dover out our league and you honestly can't say there's a side we would fear going to though.

Ditto, with Tooting out of the way it would make next season a hell of a lot easier.

Far to early to tell who will be strong next season, especially as they closed season merry-go-round has yet to happen. Getting rid of T&M would make sense but beyond that when it comes down to it I have no preference at all.

I'd rather see Tooting go up, it wouldn't feel so bad losing to the eventual winners. Imagine if Cray did them 6-0 after they'd beaten us 2-0? How bad would that feel? Come on Tooting, let us bask in a tiny amount of reflected glory.
