Sounds likely. He's a former Maidstone and Gillingham youngster - a creative midfielder who's been doing well at Hastings. Worth a look perhaps.

Doug Loft is a midfielder who broke into the team this season, he is pretty good. He played at Horsham on Monday.

BHAFC are aware of Sammy Adams, Dean White said they knew about him but could not offer every talented youngster in Sussex a trial as BHAFC are skint - theres a revelation.

I will try and discover if it was Loft or Adams from theguy who watches Hastings home and away down the office

Why can we not take them on trial? It doesn't cost anything!!!!

What's happened about the Eastleigh player, Andy Forbes, we were meant to be trialling?

Meant to be pretty good by all accounts but Hastings' best player is Duncan McArthur.

MA release McArthur because he has an attitude

I left Hastings soon after Doug joined. I must admit he looked more than useful the couple of times I saw him. However he was at Gillingham for a few years and they weren't keen on keeping him at all.

Barry the Hastings fan says Doug Loft is a box to box midfielder with a good engine. he does not know anything about a trial but would not be suprised as he thinks the player is too good for Hastings.
