Vines and King shrug off injury concerns


Tooting boss Billy Smith says both Dave King and Paul Vines will win their fitness battles and make the starting line-up for the Terrors’ big FA Cup clash at Stockport County on Saturday.

Both King and Vines suffered groin strains in the 4-3 win at Eastbourne Borough in the final qualifying round, with both sitting out last weekend’s FA Trophy defeat at Chippenham Town.

The pair missed training on Tuesday night but had a run-out on Thursday, and the Tooting & Mitcham boss plans to field his keeper and 14-goal striker in the Edgeley Park showdown.

Smith said: "Both of them trained on Thursday night, as did the rest of the squad, so I have the full squad to choose from.

"It'll be the same team it always is on Saturday."
