OPPOSITION DUGOUT

Mark Moseley 

A cult hero for the Shots in his playing days, Moseley started off his managerial career at Bournemouth’s youth set-up before joining Weymouth FC. 

In his first two seasons with the Terras, he enjoyed two successive promotions, guiding them into the Vanarama National League for the first time since the 2008/09 campaign. 

Moseley then enjoyed time at Southend United before joining Aldershot Town where he has led them to 16th in the table so far this season.

ONE TO WATCH 

Alfie Whittingham 

Son of Portsmouth legend Guy Whittingham, Aflie joined the Shots from Hungerford Town in 2019 and spent last season on loan there too – earning the club’s Young Player of The Season award. 

The 23-year-old has previously spent three seasons at Havant & Waterlooville where he made several first-team appearances before being loaned out to the likes of AFC Totton and Petersfield Town.

Playing predominantly in midfield, Whittingham is the club’s current top active goalscorer for this season and has scored important goals against Grimsby Town, King’s Lynn Town and Altrincham.
