Henderson's club Mjallby has Swedish Cup games on the Saturdays (Sunday March 2 NZT,  Sunday March 9 NZT) before and after the All Whites game. The "Svenska Cupen", their national knock-out cup, is rather unique and runs a full year from May one year to May the next, so the current edition runs May 2013 to May 2014. Premier League sides enter part-way through. Mjallby are currently in the Group Stage where the remaining sides are divided into eight groups of four and play eachother once.

Mjallby play a lot of Swedish Cup games around the time of the All Whites fixture as well as friendlies before their league season kicks off in late March - understandably that would rule Henderson out.


Keats club Falkenberg FF were knocked out of the Cup last year before the Group Stage so that's not a problem - but they are playing lots of pre-season friendlies.

Both Keat and Henderson will want to cement their places at their clubs in the weeks before the season commences. Dan I see from his Twitter has only just returned today to Sweden after being granted time off to attend his twin sister's wedding in NZ  - so he's missed a few pre-season games.
