I have been working on these two cryptic crossword clues for slightly over one week, now. I started around lunch time last Friday.

"Football association has arms to secure. (7)"

Probably starts in "FIFA".

"The main heirs are four this year. (7)"

Probably starts in "son(s)" --if son singular, the word is plural.

SOLVED? "seasons"? Thanks,
