Signed in the summer on a 1 year contract. Plays 70 mins against Ebbsfleet and 8 mins at Salisbury and that's it.
Bad injury, wont kick a ball for the rest of the season.

Do they have thorough medical tests at Dagenham when they sign? not sure of his annual salary maybe £40k or more, all for 78 mins of football.

Surely the club has insurance for this!

I'm not sure it's down to anything missed in a medical, he landed very badly and I assume he's done knee ligaments. It was just unfortunate. I suppose there's a chance he could have had some weakness there but I don't think any club is performing full lower body MRI on new signings.

Signing Marsh though is another matter...
