SEASON 2009-2010     -     THE GLADIATORS
Players Bobby Aspinall, Elliott Burton, Howard Curtis, Sam Fry, Daniel Gliddon (Capt), Paul Jackson.
Position 6 out of 6
Comments Having won the title last season, this season turned into a complete disaster as the team finished bottom despite there being very little change in personal.  In the end, they failed to win a single game and drew only 2.
SEASON 2008-2009     -     THE GLADIATORS
Players Bobby Aspinall, Howard Curtis, Sam Fry, Daniel Gliddon (Capt), Paul Jackson.
Position 1 out of 6
Comments The title was won with only one match not won.  That came in the 3rd round when they were held by the Champions' of the previous season, Real Betis.  They went into the last round clear of Real but held their nerve to win, albeit helped by the fact Real Betis had a bad night in their final match.
SEASON 2007-2008     -     THE GLADIATORS
Players Bobby Aspinall, Howard Curtis, Sam Fry, Daniel Gliddon (Capt), Paul Jackson.
Position 2 out of 6
Comments Despite being unbeaten, The Gladiators only managed 2nd players, having drawn 1 more match than title winners Real Betis, with whom they drew in the middle round.
SEASON 2006-2007     -     THE GLADIATORS
Players Chris Chapman, Howard Curtis, Daniel Gliddon (Capt), Paul Jackson, Bill McDonald.
Position 2 out of 4
Comments This was so near and yet so far.  They would certain have won the title but for defeat to the current holders in round 3.  In round 5, they had to win the head to head match against The Others but were held to a draw and had to make do with 2nd place for the 2nd season in a row.
SEASON 2005-2006     -     THE GLADIATORS
Players Howard Curtis (Capt), Daniel Gliddon, Paul Jackson, Bill McDonald, John Sheekey.
Position 2 out of 4
Comments The team finished a distant 2nd having clawed back after defeats in rounds 2 and 3.  They edged back into 2nd after the final game of the season.
