My lad currently has two pairs of boots, one for grass and one for astro. He is going up a size each year and replacing two pairs is getting expensive, especially as one is not allowed to buy George or F&F!!!!

Is there a boot that can be used on all surfaces from quagmire to astro. "Turf" boots look a possibility..........

Don't buy blades - they are not good for any footballer as they cause injury to yourself (they get stuck in turf and cause knee and muscle injuries) as well as your opponent.

As for deals, I always used to get boots for me and my son from prodirectsoccer.com - their sale boots mean you get the end of range boots for about £20 a pair so your son gets the fairly trendy boots and you save money.

From what I have heard about your lad, I think Wellington boots are more appropriate.

You heard right, He, or should I say she, is about as useful as Leon Best in deep sea divers boots.

But he's keen and it's all about taking part and who knows one day little Alfonse might actually complete a pass or even head a ball.

Exactly this. Blades are bad news.
