Strawberries – Little or no fruit so far

As some of you would have seen from previous threads this year was a bit of the test / see what happens on the plot with the first year of planting.
 
This brings me on to my strawberries, these are 2 years old and to date I’ve had little or no fruit. My assumption is this is because I’ve overcrowded the bed and cut little or no runners off, would this be correct?
 
Anyway I spent an hour this morning weeding and pruning and have circa 18 new plants for their new, better prepared bed next year?
 
Isn’t it wonderful how easy they are to propagate?
