After last night's U18/MAA Match at Hayden Road, attention now turns to the weekend fixture at King's Lynn.

Don't forget to book a space on the coach if not already done so - details above.

I wonder if we see any new faces on Saturday or next Tuesday. Central defender especially needed to allow Westbrook to return to his right position. Last night was a good opportunity to bend the ear of Justin Edinburgh.

May not see any new faces but one old face most likely to be facing us is Michael Gash
He scored 6 goals in 18 appearances in season 2010-11.

Including 4 in one game against Bath City. I remember reading at the time he was the first person to have scored 4 for us in one game since Adrian Foster in September 1997 (funnily enough that was Foster's full debut for the club, a 5-5 draw with Farnborough at Nene Park).

Russ Dunkley scored 5 against Cockfosters in the FA Cup a few years back (all 5 of them headers before he was substituted after 53 minutes), but has any other AFC R&D player scored more than 3 goals in a single game?

The 5-5 v Farnborough was the first game I ever took Sam to watch at Nene Park, took some explaining to a 4 year old it wouldn't be like that every week, though I managed to match it almost with the 1st time I took him to Goodison and watched Everton Beat West Ham 6-0.
Not sure the are any players about to sign as despite a good start to the season JT at The Eagles has signed another 4 players in the past couple of weeks.

Bully got 4 in the 9-0 win over Desborough in February 2015. I remember it vividly, as I was listening to Radio Diamonds whilst sat by a pool in the Dominican Republic!

The Kings Lynn website seems to lack the basic information on directions, parking, catering etc, but some of that information is available via their supporter's trust website - http://www.thelinnets.co.uk/lynnmap.php

If you use the directions page on that site there is a suggestion that the parking at the ground is for "VIPs"/ disabled only, but I'm not aware of any official statement from the club to that effect.
