He then dropped down into non-League football signing a short-term contract with Aldershot Town in April 2005 until the end of the 2004–05 season. The following season he moved to Grays Athletic, before joining Oxford United on loan in November 2006.

Slabber signed for Conference South club Woking in December 2009. Slabber signed for Eastleigh in July 2010, before moving onto Chelmsford City in March 2012. Following a successful spell with the Essex club, Slabber joined Sutton United, where he scored 14 goals in 31 appearances during the 2013–14 season. This included two goals against Bromley, the club for which he and team-mate Damian Scannell would sign for at the end of the season.

Club career

Born in Enfield, London,[1] Slabber joined Tottenham Hotspur as a trainee in August 2001, where he was mainly used as a reserve team player. He made just one appearance in the Premier League, coming on as a substitute in the 79th minute for Gary Doherty against Liverpool in a 3–2 defeat on 16 March 2003.[4] He set up Teddy Sheringham for Tottenham's second goal, four minutes from the end.[5] Slabber made the bench on two more occasions, but was never fielded.[6] He had loan spells at Danish outfit AB Copenhagen in 2004,[7] and Swindon Town in 2005.[8]

He was released from Spurs in April 2005 and signed for Aldershot Town until the end of the 2004–05 season.[9] Slabber made a total of four appearances, including two in Aldershot's defeat on aggregate in the Conference National play-off semi-finals to Carlisle United, where he scored in the 90th minute of the second-leg.[4] Slabber then signed for Grays Athletic on a free transfer in May 2005, ready for the start of the 2005–06 season. He went on to make 40 Conference National appearances scoring 13 goals over two seasons.[4]

In November 2006, he spent a month on loan at Oxford United,[10] making three Conference appearances, but failing to score.[4] Former Grays Athletic manager, Mark Stimson, signed Slabber for Stevenage Borough in December 2006 from Grays.[11]

Slabber was released by Stevenage on 17 May 2007, and signed for Conference South club Havant & Waterlooville two months later, ahead of Conference National side Halifax Town.[12] He also had an unsuccessful trial at Rushden & Diamonds in July 2007.[13] He scored his first Havant goal against newly formed Hayes & Yeading United, a game that Havant won 4–1.
