Ijaha arrives at Cray

Cray Wanderers preparation for Sunday's visit of Bowers & Pitsea includes the signing of experienced midfielder David Ijaha. Whitehawk fans will remember David warmly, as he was an enormous part of their sides success when they were in National League South- and indeed came as close as extra time to earning promotion to the next step up.

Prior to his time with the Hawks, David played Academy football with Chelsea and Wolves before joining our ranks at Harrow Borough. St Albans City and Tonbridge Angels were next in line, and a short spell with Hayes & Yeading United before the Hawks came calling.

His next step was upwards, as he was snapped up by Plymouth Argyle, whose Assistant boss, Craig Brewster, had coached him at the Enclosed Ground. Injury brought that spell to an end, and it was back to Whitehawk. Welling United was the next destination, and he has since turned out for Dulwich Hamlet and Dartford, before another- albeit short- spell with the Hawks at the end of last season.
