Absolutely made up that SK has made Jakob a Dartford player, he was excellent when on loan.
Conner Essam quality central defender.
Welcome to Craig King, quality keeper.
Ricky Modeste, good player, bags of experience.
Barnum-Bobb welcome to us

WOW........ every one of those looks a great signing.

If i'm right the squad so far is:-

King

Braham-Barrett
Ming
Barnum-Bobb
Bonner
Hill
Vint
Essam

Husin
Jebb
Berkeley-Agyepong
Brodie
Modeste

Romain
Barham

This leaves announcements on - Wynter, Noble, Sheringham, Marsh-Brown, Briggs, Sesay, Allen.

The squad is looking very good already and i wouldn't be surprised if SK gets a few more in, very very good news.

Some great signings with the bunch announced this morning.
I’m so glad we’ve managed to sign Jacob Berkeley-Agyepong as he had some real quality and great link up play.
Ricky Modeste has great experience and adds some tricky flair to the team. Dover fans were sad to see him leave.
Connor Essam comes back to the club where he played some of his best football. Big, physical and knows what it takes to win the league.
Craig King has some good plaudits and has England C experience.
Jazz Barnum-Bobb has always played at a higher level with his last club being Wrexham. Pacey full back.

Welcome all.

I expect that’s our defence more or less concluded for the season.

Looks like some great signings with bags of experience.
I look forward to hearing the next few new or re-signings.

Some real pedigree there. Well done Mr King - great signings. I too are delighted to see Jacob back. Quality goalkeeper but we need back- up there. Sesay will require regular games. I think we need another striker too and hopefully we can tie Ky up for the season. Really exciting season ahead.

Really pleased with the signing of Berkeley-Agyepong. I had a feeling for ages that we may get him as there had been no announcement from Aldershot that they had re-signed him.

The return of Connor Essam was a bit of a surprise and will bring great competition to the other three centre backs.

Ricky Modeste was also a (nice) surprise. Although he is 32 he was a regular for Dover in the National League last season. He also has plenty of experience having played nearly 250 games for Chelmsford, Billericay and Dover.

Craig King is only 23 but has been Oxford City's first choice keeper for the past 3 years. He also has first team experience with Bishops Stortford, Southport and Luton.

Jazzi Barnum-Bobb has League Two experience with Newport and has also played for Torquay, Chelmsford and Wrexham.

I may be wrong but I am pretty sure that Connor can play as as a ballwinner/ passer in midfield.
