I think this board needs a new "I was being sacrastic/joking/tongue-in-cheek" smilie.

Good non-league player.

Decent for Hastings and very important player for Horsham, someone they have not really replaced.

Good in the air, decent target man of sorts but not some huge built lump by any means.

Went to Tonbridge for the money and the fact they 'had pasta before matches'...

Wouldn't have thought he was up to League 1 though. Horsham best striker in recent years, Jamie Taylor, ended up in League 2 as a bit part player.

Seriously? How far away are Tonbridge Angels from league football? I know a Sunday Leaguer who averages 0.8 goals a game, shall we give him a trial?

Quite. I am pretty certain this trial is going to be the end of Brighton and Hove Albion as we know it. I forsee us going out of business on the back of this proposal. What the f*** are they thinking, having a look at a non-league player with a decent scoring record?

Get a grip.

He sounds dreadful. Why don't we try and sign some proper players?

Look at me everyone, look at me......

I've made another negative comment again just to try and be the centre of attention.

I'm just a little worried this guy might fluke a goal in a friendly or something to earn himself a contract. I mean, how many non league jokers have we had sign for us in the past few years. Dixon, Elder, Revell....

Although, I do trust Russell with every move he makes and unlike Wilkins/Adams he isn't a clueless fool. Where has this come from anyway? Any source? I fail to believe this is true.

Elder and Revell are surely not jokers. Whilst your gang may not have been very keen on Revell, his limited ability was supplemented by large amounts of effort and he did a decent job for us when we needed it. Elder has played well for Brentford and never really got the chance from Wilkins to show him what he was made of. I wouldn't mind haven't either of them to come off the bench and hassle the opposition if we were chasing a game.

Aside from that, why is Wilkins a clueless fool? (I accept your point about Adams).

Revell is still playing league 1 football so not really a joker, and Elder is very much liked down at Brentford and hopefully he will come back from his injury and score a few goals, as long as they are not against us. Dixon was one that went wrong granted.

Where were Stansted in the league pyramid when we picked up Hart?

A certain Paul Rogers came from the Non-League. DJ Campbell. Charlie Oatway and so on... If anything, non-league is now better quality with such a mass influx of foreign players into the English league.

As ive said before, Slade signed 2 or 3 players from non-league (BSS level, i think) last summer for Yeovil. So he knows its worth having a look even if it comes to nothing.

Or I just don't think we should try and sign people from Tonbridge f***ing Angels?

Anyway, negative comments I can well and truly tick off, but I've still got tedious whinging about tickets and nicknaming my kids on an internet forum where noone gives a shit about them for the full set of retardedness:clap2:
