 He joined Conference South side Fisher Athletic in July 2008, a move that was to be cut-short by extreme financial difficulties at the club.Due to these problems Sambrook, along with a handful of other players, was released from Fisher by mutual consent on 10 November 2008 and subsequently signed for Conference South rivals Thurrock.Less than three months later, on 30 January 2009, Sambrook left Thurrock for AFC Wimbledon.
