Name: Mike Whelan |
| Nick Names: Kewell, Mikey, The Pepperami Man |
| Status: Player |
| DOB: 04/10/83 |
| Height: 6ft |
| Position: Left or Right Wing or Upfront |
Yet another outstanding talent and former Blue Chip player. Kewelly has, for the past two seasons, been recognised as the stand out players of the group. Is one of the quickest players at the club and strikes fear into the poor defenders who have the unenviable task of marking him. Is renown for scoring great individual goals as well as winning numerous penalties on the back of his skilfulness. Will be looking to form a devastating partnership of pace, power and skill with Loosemore down the left hand side and is a huge asset to the club. |

Name: Marcus Tomlin |
| Nick Names: Minky, Tomlino |
| Status: Player |
| DOB: 10/01/89 |
| Height: 5ft 7" |
| Position: Left or Right Midfield or Upfront |
| Crafty winger Tomlin has taken the Kings team by storm, this little lad packs a real punch and will be far too hot to handle by most of the opposition defences he will come across this season. Able to play on either side of the midfield, Marcus’ biggest challenge will be to turn his natural talent and flair into consistency and match winning performances. |

Name: Paul Hatton |
| Nick Names: Golden boy, Hatts |
| Status: Player |
| DOB: 15/02/85 |
| Height: 5ft" 9 |
| Position: Right or Central Midfield, Forward, Centre back - pretty much anywhere! |
| A more genuinely nice guy you will never meet. Added to the fact that this guy can really play football and that is almost the perfect combination in my book! Paul can play anyway on the football field, and will still come away looking like he has played there all his life. A real talent. The only real shame is that he will only be available for a few rare games during the season. |

Name: Ben Whelan |
| Nick Names: Nev, Benji |
| Status: Player |
| DOB: 25/04/81 |
| Height: 5ft 9" |
| Position: Left Winger or left full back |
| Being a whippet must run in the Whelan genes, as Ben looks like he would give brother Mike a real run for his money in the sprint stakes. Ben has shown his talent at left full back but prefers to ply his trade further up field causing damage to opposition defenders. |

Name: Nigel Ali |
| Nick Names: Nice guy Nige |
| Status: Player |
| DOB: 21/12/69 |
| Height: 5ft 10" |
| Position: Midfielder |
| Nige regularly proves that he isn’t just a nice guy but actually a handy footballer as well. Tricky and skilful, Nige is just finding his footballing feet with regards to 11-a-side competition but can be regularly found down at Bedford park kicking a ball around with friends. His ability to retain the ball and bring others into the game will be vital to the Kings this season. |

Name: Daniel Dwight |
| Nick Names: Dan (pretty original) |
| Status: Player |
| DOB: 27/10/79 |
| Height: 6ft 2" |
| Position: Midfielder |
| Is more commonly seen in a pub with a guitar in his hand rather then on a football field, but Dan’s natural ability and versatility will make him a useful Kings player this season. |

Name: Allen Sacbuker |
| Nick Names: Hercule Van Keckbucker, Tarik, Scolo |
| Status: Chief Sports Correspondant, Player |
| DOB: 25/04/1979 |
| Height: 6ft 2" |
| Position: Midfielder Left or Centre |
The enigma that is Sacbuker. At his best can unlock teams with pin point passing and at his worst is no more than a passenger. A cultured left foot is where Sacbuker’s brain is located which may prove a vital cog in the Kings midfield this coming term. Has the ability to dictate games but must strive to become a more consistent performer. A number of serious injuries have hindered his progress over the past few seasons where he was an influential member of Blue Chip FC and was broken hearted to leave the club during the summer months for pastures new. |

Name: James Farmer |
| Nick Names: Jimbo, Jimboo, Jimbooooo |
| Status: Player |
| DOB: 26/6/82 |
| Height: 6ft |
| Position: Central Midfielder or Defender |
| Recently wed to Hazel, Jimbo will need to hit the ground running after his honeymoon to quickly get himself into shape for the new season. This lad is a big strong central midfielder who will be expected to boss the Kings games and dictate play. Also has the ability to slot into defence in emergencies. |

Name: Stuart Minty |
| Nick Names: The Mint, Papa Bouba Mint, Rudolph |
| Status: Player |
| DOB: 05/09/79 |
| Height: 5ft 10" |
| Position: Midfielder Centre or Right |
A new recruit following his move from the big smoke where he was player manager of the Old Kingsburians. A lifetime friend of Sylvain, El Morgan and Hercule, the Mint has recently entered the ranks of fatherhood which appears to have calmed the young man down greatly (apart from a pre-season tour of some London bars which resulted in him vomiting wildly on the London underground in front of horrified tourists and commuters alike). A right midfielder by trade where his crossing ability and all round passing range will be a massive weapon to the Kings side. It remains to be seen whether the heavy binge drinking has finally caught up with him. |

|
Name: Mike Milner |
| Nick Names: Yet to come... |
| Status: Player |
| DOB: 08/08/75 |
| Height: 5ft 8" |
| Position: Midfielder |
Kings are very fortunate to have tempted Mike, a cultured ball player away from some of the higher echelons of Luton league football. Father of two, and husband to Jennifer, Milner is likely to be the heart beat of the Kings side this season, keeping the whole team ticking with rhythm and fluency. |

Name: Daniel Brodier |
| Nick Names: Broooooooodier |
| Status: Player |
| DOB: 19/09/87 |
| Height: 6ft |
| Position: Goalkeeper come right back come midfielder |
| Versatile Dan was a late addition to the Kings AFC set up in time for the new season. Able to play as a goalkeeper or outfield. Brodier's youth brings fresh ideas, energy and boldness to the Kings lineup. |
