Anyone remember him? Played for you sometime ago apparrently. Goalkeeper.38

Has just been sent down for 9 years for smuggling £12 million of cannabis from Mexico hidden in wardrobes.

Played for us? Are you sure? I've never heard of him.

Hi Tony, perhaps he could sign for Maidstone, I'm sure the prison would let him out on day release.

And he would be very cheap!!

[Jimmy]

New one on me too.

The local may have got it wrong then.They mention he was an ex-keeper for our club but was swiftly told that he was on trial at one point but never got a game.They also said that he once played for Gravesend,Dagenham & Brentford.Maybe they got it all wrong.Apologies for asking.Maybe we'll let this one go then!

[Stu M]

Maybe he used a pseudonym to hide his life of crime.

Found this while looking fior details on Forrester though :-

 

SESTANOVICH:FOOTBALLER DID NOT ANYONE HURT IN FATAL RAID. STREATHAM, SW LONDON; SHEFFIELD, YORKS; CORK, IRELAND; GRAYS, ESSEX. A professional footballer did not want anyone to get hurt in a bungled robbery which left a businessman dead, the Old Bailey heard today. Ashley Sestanovich, 24, was allegedly the brains behind a bungled cash heist at Fahey Roofing, Streatham, south London, in June last year.

 

Now he did play (albeit briefly) for us!

Ah so that was 'the incident' involving Sestanovich.

 

Seems he was as good at robbery as he was at football.
