Akanbi has been offered a contract with a National League club and Greenhaigh with an Ishmian club in as God forsaken destination. Says it all really. It tells me that a National club is short of cash and prepared to take a chance on an overweight player with a bit of promise, while Ben took a deal at Margate because they offered to combine it with a coaching role. What does it tell you?

It tells me that you take the best offer that's on the table. For Ben, a player/coaching role, working under Jay, is an attractive proposition. But no way are Stones missing out on not having signed him up for this season.

Let's face it, Hak took a long look at Akanbi and decided he was worth a punt. The player has the potential to improve whereas Ben's best days are probably behind him. BG is not the answer to our striker problems. Hak has not exactly been lucky with the pre season programme, player fitness and injury problems. Such a shame, cause I really fancy the squad he has put together. A good start would be nice but we may have to be patient to see the best of the team.

Well we have a lot of midfielders surely one of those could move up front on a temporary basis. I hope they can or we'll be playing one up front and hoofball from the first game of the season, nobody wants to see that.

Apparently we had ex Liverpool Academy & Accrington Stanley forward Okera Simmonds on trial this evening at East Thurrock. Scored our 3rd goal.

Also Blackburn Rovers but apparently no club in the past 18 months, unless anybody can explain.

Ibby Akanbi has signed for Aldershot. Good move for him.

Ibby Akanbi has signed for Aldershot. Good move for him. It will be very interesting to see how he gets on. Personally, I'd be surprised if it's much more than bench warming, but (as always) I hope I'm wrong.

I still think we will regret letting the other Ibby go to Tonbridge. It will be interesting to see at the end of the season who scores most, Ibby or Pavey. It looks as if Akembi may have had an indication that he might get a better deal with Dagenham when he turned us down, shame though as I thought he was our best forward. We must now hope that Hak can sign a good loan forward to tide us over. If Harry Kane does not want to train with Spurs perhaps he could keep fit playing for us? Olutade scored for Tonbridge today but they were thrashed by Fleet
