I think Barnet later sold a player to Wimbledon for £400k, may have been Andy Clarke, think he later linked up again with Barry Fry at Peterborough.

Where did Peter Smith join us from, sure that was a non-league team, Sittingbourne perhaps.

 

[Charles 'Charley' Charles]

Not sure where he came from first time, but didn't we re sign The Genius from Bognor?

 

[Gully]

...and Darren Freeman had played for Horsham at one stage in his career.

Alma Swanley.

...aha, knew it was some Kentish outfit. Have a feeling we also signed a player from Maidstone Utd at one stage, but names and memories are a bit dim on this.

Mark Gall was from Maidstone, I'm sure of it. We signed him the year we got relegated 91-92, was top scorer but only played that season as he retired after that through injury I think

That is it Kaz, my brother worked with a mate of his. Mark was absolutely gutted when he had to retire as he loved playing for the Albion and was really committed to the club, a sentiment shared by many who saw him play.

 

[Charles 'Charley' Charles]

That was my first full season supporting Brighton, never forget against Portsmouth, sure it was Gall who scored straight from the second half ko

Mark Beeney, when they went out of business?

 

[Safeway]

How many of the aforementioned players had played at League level BEFORE dropping out though?

 

[BensGrandad]

Tony Book went from I think it was Bath City or some club down that way straight to Div 1 with Man City, who were challenging for the title, at about 27 years of age if my memory serves me well.

Stafford Browne

Weren't Maidstone a league club then?

Mark Gall was a great player - shame he had to retire so young.

 

[Norman Baker suck my lozenge]

Stuart Pearce,Wealdstone fc.

 

[BensGrandad]

also Vinnie Jones came from Wealdstone, they used to be a top non league club but didnt they have problems when they sold their ground!!!
