Early Career
He came through the Crystal Palace academy, but was not given a chance by Iain Dowie or his successor Peter Taylor, and was sent on loan to Lewes of the Conference South to gain experience during the 2006–07 season, scoring on his debut.
Hall caused controversy after being involved in a fracas at a five-a-side football tournament, which resulted in a security guard being hospitalised with facial injuries.
Hall made his Palace debut as a late substitute in the 2007–08 season and appeared again in an FA Cup defeat before moving to League Two side Dagenham & Redbridge on loan, impressing enough to have the loan spell extended for a second month. He returned to Palace having scored twice in eight appearances for the Daggers. After failing to get into the Palace team under Neil Warnock he then moved to Crawley Town where he pursued the same record as he did at Dagenham. He later on moved to Bromley on a permanent basis. On 25 March 2009, Hall played as a trialist for Grimsby Town Reserves against Hartlepool United Reserves.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or career:
“We early arrive at the great discovery that there is one mind common to all individual men: that what is individual is less than what is universal ... that error, vice and disease have their seat in the superficial or individual nature.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
““Never hug and kiss your children! Mother love may make your children’s infancy unhappy and prevent them from pursuing a career or getting married!” That’s total hogwash, of course. But it shows on extreme example of what state-of-the-art “scientific” parenting was supposed to be in early twentieth-century America. After all, that was the heyday of efficiency experts, time-and-motion studies, and the like.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
