Alsager Town v Radcliffe Boro: KEVIN Glendon is hoping to bring in a striker as his Radcliffe Borough side prepare to kick off their FA Cup campaign.

The Borough boss released defender John Foster this week to give himself room to strengthen his forward line.

And Glendon is also hoping that a cup run will bring in extra money for new players.

"The Alsager game is very important to us," he said.

"It's not just a case of the magic of the FA Cup, there's money to be made, which could be the difference between keeping a squad of 18 or trimming it to 15."

Radcliffe will earn £2,250 prize money if they beat Alsager Town tomorrow.

The North West Counties League side knocked out Atherton Collieries in the preliminary round two weeks ago.

Steve Foster is expected to return in attack for Borough, with Scott Wilson fit enough to play in midfield. But on-loan midfielder Ciaran Kilheeney will not play, as his club Droyslden do not want him cup-tied.
