Its absolutely heartbreaking hearing Alfie explain his situation. I hope he finds further success in the sport whether that's coaching or as a pundit.

@snookerstones Жыл бұрын

At least he had a career even if it did end too soon

@yourdasellsavon9928 Жыл бұрын

By the sounds of it I don’t think he’ll be limited to coaching or punditry like many other footballers, seems a smart lad wish him well

Don’t know if Alfie would ever read this - but watching him play for those few seasons at Swansea, what a fantastic footballer he is. Hell of a defender, and an example to follow for any young player getting into the game - will definitely be an inspiration for a lot of people who followed the Swans when they were in the Prem. Be proud mate. YJB!

He was superb mate, no surprise England were looking at him. One of the best CB's I've seen down there, shame he succumbed to his injuries

He was brilliant for Barnsley. Gave me some of my best memories in my early teen years. Thank you Alfie, good luck with post football life

Went to see Exeter City v Wycombe at the start of the season. I didn't realise Mawson was at Wycombe and I was shocked how one of the Wycombe centre backs looked so good, so much better than everyone else - winning everything, pinging balls, commanding, amazing. I saw it was Mawson about 30 minutes in and wondered what he was doing in League One. Well, now I know, absolutely savage. So unlucky.

The way that Alfie talks about Wycombe shows how much respect he has for the club and it’s heartbreaking to see what he’s been through. A true chairboy 💙

@thehypesthype2614 Жыл бұрын

Highly rated by all the clubs he played for, for a good reason. We loved him at Wycombe both times he played for us. Check out his assist for Chris Forino in Wycombe's 1-0 win away at Oxford earlier this season 🔥 Good luck with everything Alfie

This has to be my favourite of all your episodes, you can tell he's a really great guy. Hope he goes on to do some really cool stuff in the next stage of his career.

This happened to me at 17/18 too I was a trialist at Walsall and the baggies as a goalkeeper I cracked my meniscus going down for a routine save to my right and it just went. Two surgeries (lucky I know) later I still didn't put on gloves again until I was twenty eight. I can only play as a non contact five and six a side keeper and even that grinds it. The fact he carried on makes him inspirational to me and a lot of others.

I just showed this to my under effort ,lack of care, ridiculously talented keeper son. He watched it in silence…. I think he needed to see how easy your talent can be taken away!! Thanks and good luck young man it will work out in the end however much it seems it won’t! 💙

Some people at Wycombe will remember Alfie for his goal vs Luton. Not me. After all he went through in his career, the knowledge about his knee, the failed medicals, the coming back "home" this will be my memory of him: Despite everything that went before, everything that could happen at any moment with his knee, heres my central defender giving it everything in the last minutes as a winger to set up number 3 against Peterborough just a couple of months before having to retire. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nK6Jaaakz6eZmWw.html Wycombe Legend.
