The new ownership brought in significant changes by hiring Manuel Hernandez as the new general manager and Stanislav Zvezdic as the head coach. Due to time constraints because of change of ownership the reserve squad was withdrawn from the Second Division. Zvazdic brought in several imports with CSL experience mainly from the Balkan countries. The imports included Nenad Begović, Vladimir Markotić, Ranko Golijanin, Rade Novković, Nenad Nikolić, Dalibor Mitrović, Boban Stojanović, Nikola Stanojević, Zvonko Bakula, and William Etchu Tabi. Early into the season Zvezdic unexpectedly resigned from his position after visiting Serbia for personal reasons. His temporary replacement was team captain Begovic with Mike Marcoccia assisting him. Begovic took the team from the bottom of the standings and transformed them into a playoff contender. Despite the change in performance London still missed the final playoff berth by five points. The league awarded Ryan Gauss with the Harry Paul Gauss award.
