Fenelon's a Hornet

By Ian Townsend

Former Brighton forward Shamir joins up with Horsham

Horsham have announced the signing of forward Shamir Fenelon, who moves from National League South side Billericay Town.

Shamir started his footballing life at Brighton and Hove Albion, and during his time as a seagul had loan spells with Tonbridge Angels (then in National league South), Torquay United, Rochdale, Tranmere Rovers and Dagenham & Redbridge.

He then moved permanently up the A23 to sign for Crawley Town, and from there spent some time back in Brighton on loan with our very own Whitehawk, before making another permanent move to Aldershot Town, where he spent three seasons.

Maidenhead United then came calling, and last season- what there was of it- was spent with Billericay. He's also a Republic of Ireland Under 21 international.

Manager Dom Di Paola stated:

“He’s a bolt out of the blue, but one we can’t turn down. He’s quite an athletic forward and can play anywhere across the front line, and he's got really good pedigree.

He knows quite a few of the boys from his time at Brighton so he should fit in really well.”
