The first new signing ahead of the 2009/10 campaign, this experienced defender arrives following a successful season with Southern League Farnborough. Began his playing career with Crystal Palace, going on to make some thirty appearances for the Eagles, before continuing his Football League career with AFC Bournemouth, Torquay United, Oxford United and Yeovil Town. He first moved into the non-League game with Crawley Town in 2005 and made a big impact there, so much so that he ended up managing the side (on a caretaker basis) from half-way through the 2006/07 Conference campaign. Now a fully qualified fire fighter based near his Bracknell home.
