Looks like a good signing having played 33 times for Chelmsford last season, he has the pedigree , pace and knows where the goal is , he is only 5'9 tall so last seasons long ball to the main striker would need to cease [ hopefully !] , Kudas is 25 and has had several Clubs so needs a very good season[ full of goals] to have another chance at higher level !!!!!

He is the kind of player I was hoping for !!!!!!!

He got 10 goals last season for Chelmsford , how many were pens , ALSO depends IF he is playing as main striker or as suggested as a Winger ?

I wouldn't get too excited about Kudos. If your aim is to challenge for the title then he's not the calibre of player to get you there. He's a very busy player but he's not a goal threat. I could tell you he can't finish but i don't know because he was simply incapable of getting himself into goal scoring positions. In all competitions for us he got 12 goals last season and 6 of those were pens and a couple were in local cups.

In a season when we were shocking up front with poor, poor strikers (at least until we signed Fenwick in March) he never established himself in the side. He played 30 odd games but half of those were from the bench. Most of the time he was deployed as a striker but would pull wide alot. He also seems to have lost his pace because we never saw any signs of the pacy striker we were promised. He isn't slow but he doesn't have the pace to break away from defences.

If he gets in your side he'll work hard for you but i suspect after a few months he'll be not much more than a bit part player for you like he was for us.

To me it's a kick in the nuts. Why Havant of all teams?

a- they are in the league above and b- they asked him!

They need a striker because Jason Prior is expected to leave.

The article above confirms that compensation will be paid.

I hope Kudos reads what the Chelmsford fan posted about him , it may just give him the extra incentive to do well at the Darts , his Videos show him to be quick with an eye for goals , lets hope so !!!!

I hope Alfie does great at Havant as this really is a big step for him in as much as he will be playing for a newly promoted team who are unlikely to be a serious threat in the National and he has to score goals or his career will be on the slide again . Jason Prior will be a hard act to follow and I just hope [ for his sake] that Alfie has matured enough in one[ successful] season with the Darts to step up ?

I will be following with interest and I genuinely hope he does well !!!!!!!
