‘Nicke is the kind of player who can make a bad ball into a good one. He is quick, willing and strong.
‘We’ve been talking to him for a week or so. He’s been great, he is really hungry to show what he can do.’
Kabamba has a point to prove after his time with Pompey did not go how he had hoped.

With the Hawks moving up to the National League it was the perfect match and provides an ideal platform for the striker.
Bradbury added: ‘Nicke played at conference south level and scored lots of goals before he moved to Portsmouth.
‘He’s local and that’s probably one of the reasons we have managed to get him.
‘Quite a few clubs were after him, including some at a higher level.’
