Steve King, manager of Blue Square Bet South club Farnborough, has announced the signing of striker Paul Booth.
Booth began his career in the Conference National with a two-year spell for Gravesend & Northfleet (Ebbsfleet).
He then moved to Welling United in 2002 and stayed with the Wings for two seasons scoring over fifty goals in his time there.
Already a proven goalscorer, Booth racked up thirty-two goals in just fifty-one appearances for Cambridge City in the 2005/06 season before moving to Lewes in the summer of 2006.
Over two seasons with the Rooks he totalled eighty-nine appearances and scored fifty-four times. He played an instrumental part in Steve King’s Lewes side that won the Conference South in 2007/08.
He then spent ten months at Havant & Waterlooville but left the club due to personal reasons.
He joins Farnborough from Tonbridge Angels after another successful season picking up the accolade of top scorer in the Ryman League Premier Division.
The 32 year-old is the Conference South’s all-time leading goalscorers list with over 120 to his name and will look to add more to his record this season wearing a Farnborough shirt.
King says that fans can look forward to watching Booth play: “He is a natural goalscorer. His ‘fox in the box’ style will bring a whole new element to the quality strike force we already have here.
“I tried to sign Boothy at the beginning of last season and was very disappointed when the deal didn’t go through, but I am delighted to have him now.”
