I wouldn't get too excited about this bloke if I were you. Rio Alderton signed for the Darts earlier in the season, was substituted at half time on his (very inept) debut, and was promptly released by Tommy Sampson!

45 mins isn't very long to get a good idea of how good/bad a player is.

Hopefully he was having a bad day when he played for the Darts.

He also seems to have turned out for Southend and Tonbridge of all teams!

 

Also, does anyone know if Berkley's gone for good, or just still on loan?

Let's at least give him a chance and lets all get behind the fleet on Saturday and make plenty of noise! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/director.gif" alt="" /> and hopefully we take 3 points at the end! <img src="/forums/images/icons/laugh.gif" alt="" />

We will be taking 3 points theres no other option, we will act like a mini kop and pull the ball in the net with the noise and beat of the drum. First half aswell as second - mr drummer!! haha. Come on you reds i sense a larger crowd than normal and a 3-2 win.

He also trialled for Dover last season when he was on the verge of being released by Millwall. He looked quite useful then.

Andy very rarely makes mistakes with his choice of players, so I'm sure he has seen potential there. And if we can get cover for Francis in his absence (and who knows, maybe even a challenge for his place) who is tall & strong, it can only benefit the squad, as its something we've been missing

You were going so well Alan, but you were obviously thinking of a different Rio <img src="/forums/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" /> This one is a midfielder. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cool_shades.gif" alt="" />

Re the drummer up to standard. Yes indeed, you were superb, was standing right behind you in the second half with couple of mates. Didnt stop singing the whole half and thoroughly enjoyed it. I think that we should possibly stay under the covered end in all games for the whole match? to create a mass of noise? i thought we did a cracking job considering we were in with their fans. Thought it was hillarious. We will definitely be adding our numbers to the drum area in all future matches, especialy away matches where the atmosphere is even better.
