If any of you haven't seen already, it's really worth watching Lee Tomlin talk about his relationship with Justin Edinburgh on Youtube. A fine example of how a player-manager bond can turn a petulant brat into a world beater. If it wasn't for Justin, I'm sure Lee wouldn't be inevitably looking at a Premier League move in the next few years...

To be fair I don't think there are many/any of our fans who doubt that he has the ability to play at a much higher level. It is his current attitude that's the problem. Maybe there is a manager out there who can divert all that attitude to the good of the team, if so they will have a hell of a player on their hands, but I'm not holding my breath.

I don't think anyone is raising a question over his ability to be a decent footballer. It has to be looked at from another angle. When you go from club to club to club to club, it cannot be the manager who hasn't bonded with the player, something is clearly not right with the players attitude. This is something we have witnessed with King, NOT A TEAM PLAYER as suggested by Srjfc.

He'll never amount to much because he's a poor team player.

According to the UCL Newsletter he's joined Sileby Rangers along with his younger brother, Simon. :D

Has anybody got any info on the King brothers, as neither Aaron or Simon were involved for Sileby last Saturday V Deeping or the previous Tuesday V Kempston.
