Raf is playing through the pain barrier this year as he is suffering with shingles. He also picked up a bad knock to his ankle in the last game.

PS. I would like to apologise to a few here when I said that Johnny Glynn had the u21 job and not cawley. Should have known better than to listen to the source I got it from! Maybe thats why he was let go from the u21 panel !!!
