I don't think Alfie would agree with you.

It doesn't appear that Alfie's groin injury was that bad, he seemed to be walking fine when he left the ground last night.

Could Aaron King play up top? I reckon he'd work well with Dunks as he's got the 'football brain' to read the flick-ons.

I think Starms certainly thinks he can play the advanced forward role, as he has played him there a few times when we were trying to close the game out.

I think the quality that he has to offer means that he would be able to do a good job if required in an advanced position. The beauty of how we have played recently, is the fluidity that we currently have, with Alfie/Koriya running from deep, playing off well with Dunks, and with Wizz/Koriya/Gearing running down the wings. Imo, Kingy can add to this creativity.

Don't overlook Nat Liburd, he has an eye for goal and is very clinical with his finishing and I feel he'll have a big part to play this season.

And only drew 1-1 away to Bigglewade United last Saturday who our XI selection comfortably beat in a recent friendly.

No pressure on the boys but have you seen the FA Cup prize money :o
Starting Sat £1,500. £1,925. £3,000. £4,500. £7,500 thought it a little presumptuous to look beyond that :lol:

Great occasion and all that but the sobering thought that it'll be yet another dry afternoon has just hit me!! Pesky FA and their silly rules ;)
