AFC Totton
WE ENJOYED A FANTASTIC end to the 2024/25 campaign, with the team achieving promotion to the National League South, which I think you will agree was nothing more than every player deserved.
So, I want to thank each and every player that played for the club and the team in 2024/25. Any manager will tell you that the close-season is an extremely difficult period at any club, but I can only thank every player for their efforts and wish those departing the very best of luck in their next chapter.
I’d like to place on record my appreciation to AFC Bournemouth, Oxford United and Tourquay United for their help with loan players Ash Clarke, Richard McIntyre, George Franklin and Ben Seymour - each of them has played a big role in our success this season, and I wish them nothing but further success and good luck in their future football careers.
I believe we are moving into a really exciting chapter with a core of experienced players already contracted for next season, and this will be an important summer for everybody associated with the club. We have made some great signings so far and more are expected over the next couple of weeks. We will update you when the time is right.
Finally, I’d like to thank all of The Stags' fans. Your support has been pivotal, and you've been amazing this season, both home and away.
Our players and staff regularly talk about your noise home and away. It goes a long way to supporting the team. It is important our players feel that you're behind them in every moment, so thank you for your incredible support and we look forward to seeing you in 2025/26.
