I run down the wing for you
I set up goals for us
And I score the odd one too
I can just hear the CFS singing this in an appropriate “sensitive balladeer” type tone

Re: Jack Cork’s absence on Saturday
Don’t know whether Cork was fit or not on Saturday but the major reason for playing him (or even Massenga) would have been to get Berge playing further forward. He (Berge) is easily our best ball-carrying and creative midfielder yet we seem to persist in playing him sitting deep.
