Charman has returned to the Nyewood Lane-outfit for a third spell, following his release by the Hillians. The central defender has now recovered from an injury which has kept him out of the Burgess Hill team for the past month and will be in the squad for Bognor’s league match at Harlow Town.

Charman left the Rocks to join former Bognor boss Jamie Howell at Eastbourne Borough then switched to join the Hillians before agreeing to return to the Rocks for a third time.

"With Keaton Wood and Corey Heath out injured, we need cover at the back and Gary will come in and offer that.
