Dom Dwyer who is a 20+ a year striker in the MLS was born in Cuckfield. (says Wikipedia at least)

sports illustrated also say he was born in "Cuckfield, a small town located a few miles north of Brighton"

Brian Yeo

God you're showing your age.

Gillingham wasn't he ?

VPM rule ok.

 

[B.W.]

There must be at least one surely?

The Albion have never brought one through, as far as I am aware, but have there actually ever been any??

Richard Tiltman was better than Dean Saunders according to Barry Lloyd. Wasn't he from Sussex?

Harrison Reed at Southampton?

 

[GT49er]

Did either of them even play at Championship/Division Two level though and if so could they claim to be quality strikers at that level? Genuine question

Thorne was with us for three seasons in Division 2, though not a regular starter. Still scored a goal every two matches though (38 in 76 over four seasons)!

It's completely impossible for Sussex to produce centre forwards. More chance of Sussex producing a Dodo than a centre forward.

Hehehe yes I am an old fart . VPM and proud of it. Gillingham's record scorer from Lanfranc Road Worthing. Should have played at a higher level.

Brian Yeo

Scored in the first live game I ever went to, Gillingham 4 Crewe 0 in around 1973

 

[midnight_rendezvous]

Harrison Reed at Southampton?

Not a striker though.

Dom Dwyer (as mentioned above), Conner Chaplin (Pompey) and Greg Luer (Hull)

Brian Yeo went to Elm Grove School then to West Tarring then on to Portsmouth FC where he didnt make the grade but went to Gillingham and became their record goalscorer. As has been said he lived in Lanfranc Rd and his mother worked in the laundry in Elm Grove with my mother. Worthings most succesful pro has to be Peter Bonnetti although born in Putney spent all his school years in Worthing at St Marys school and lived in Christchurh Rd Bit of useless info when playing football up Victoria Park Peter would never go in goal always said he was better inside right.
