Alex Read signed for the Hawks for a third spell in May 2021.

The next season produced 42 goals, followed by another 38 goals in the 2015-16 season as he helped propel the Hawks back to the Isthmian League Premier Division.

He started the 2019-20 campaign with the Angels, and after short stints with Wingate & Finchley, Enfield Town, Aveley and Bishop's Stortford, he returned to the Hawks for a second spell in February 2020.

He departed the club in the summer of 2020 before re-joining Danny Chapman's squad the following year after taking some time away from football.
