Last month the club appointed former Havant & Waterlooville midfielder Shaun Wilkinson to his first-ever managerial role after Rovers decided to part company with Steve Leigh.

He is no stranger to the PMC Stadium, having spent some time helping out Louis Bell prior to Leigh taking over in early 2018 and has also been assistant-manager at Gosport Borough.

The 39-year-old has kept coach Gary Haynes, who was part of Leigh’s backroom team, and has brought in his former Gosport colleague Danny Thompson as assistant manager.

Thompson guided Infinity to the top of the Hampshire Premier League last season but resigned after the FA dashed their promotion hopes by null and voiding Step 7 football.

Wilkinson has also brought in Matt Jones (pictured) as first team coach.

The former AFC Totton and Havant midfielder had been assistant boss at Moneyfields and is a highly rated coach and a Wessex League winner.

Wilkinson has already strengthened his squad by signing ex-Havant & Waterlooville goalkeeper Charlie Searle, who helped Steve Claridge’s Salisbury win the Wessex League in 2015/16, one-time Brighton, Pagham and Chichester City defender Ruben French, former Gosport, Fleetlands and Infinity striker Kurt Watts.

Striker Matt Andrews, formerly with Winchester City, Fareham Town and Fleetlands, ex-Folland Sports and Infinity midfielder Charlie Cooper, defender Zak Sharp, previously with Blackfield & Langley, Moneyfields, Gosport and Horndean and experienced ex-Gosport and Fareham Town defender or forward Nathan Kirby.
