Angels sign giant goalkeeper from Gravesend
Tonbridge Angels manager Alan Walker has signed goalkeeper Jamie Turner from Nationwide Conference side Gravesend & Northfleet and defender Andy Larkin.

Turner will add height in between the sticks with a height of 6ft 4 in and was Gravesend's first choice goalkeeper when the Stonebridge Road outfit won the Ryman League Premier Division championship. No stranger to success he won an FA Vase winners medal at Wembley Stadium whilst at Deal Town when Tommy Sampson (now Dartford manager) was manager.

Larkin is a former Folkestone Invicta defender and was a long term transfer target for Walker and looks set for a place on the left hand side of the Angels defence.

Former Fisher Athletic manager Walker expects all of last season's squad to return for pre-season training at the Longmead Stadium club.
