Fantasy Football: Osbourne sets early pace

Osbourne is already seven points clear after just one week, and another impressive display this weekend could see his Sudbourne Utd outfit breaking clear of the chasing pack very early in the season.

It is however a marathon and not a sprint. This is clearly the attitude of Norfolk N Chance manager Lee Ainscough who is sat at the foot of the table with 56 points.

Costly for Ainscough was the selection of Drogba who is likely to be out until October with a knee injury.

There is plenty of time to catch Osbourne's outfit though and managers are already scramblnig to make sure he doesn't escape their clutches.

Is it too early to use transfers? Or have you picked a duff eleven and need to use your subsitutes?

Don't forget to log in ahead of this weekend's games to ensure your side has the best chance of success.

The first awards will be offered for the leader at the end of September's matches as we look at who is setting the early pace.

In the meantime, here is the latest table.
