He wasn’t the only starlet leaving the Vanarama National League – Josh Stokes penned a deal at Bristol City.

After a prolific six months at Aldershot, their boss Tommy Widdrington says the club expected the interest in their star man.

“It’s come as no surprise to any of us (Staff) that Josh (and others) have attracted so much interest considering the season he and we’ve had so far.”

“There were lots of clubs at all levels keen to acquire Josh’s services, but I think Bristol City is a great fit for all parties to continue his football journey.”

Widdrington wasted no time bolstering his squad either – adding Josh Barrett from his former club King’s Lynn Town.
