Dartford sign Tonbridge Angels striker Carl Rook
by Alex Hoad
Free-scoring Tonbridge Angels hitman
Carl Rook has joined Dartford for an undisclosed fee.
The Angels striker bagged a
hat-trick against the Darts last season and has scored 16 goals in
all competitions this season after hitting 29 in 36 games last
season.
The former Horsham
man's record for the Longmead club is 64 goals in 93
appearances, with 11 of the games coming as a substitute.
Rook, pictured, followed boss
Tommy Warrilow to Tonbridge for a fee reported to be £10,000 in
December 2007 after previous spells at Dover and Hastings.
The runaway Ryman League
Premier Division leaders are understood to have beaten off
competition from Bromley and Farnborough for the striker's
signature.
Dartford have confirmed the
deal but said outstanding paperwork meant Rook will not be eligible
to play against Welling in the Kent Senior Cup on Tuesday
night.
