Having been at the club for a few years now, Todd understands the club`s ethos and outlook and everyone is excited at the prospect of him leading the Spitfires through the next stage of its development.

Whilst Todd is new to management, he has a wealth of experience at this level both as a player along with his recent role as assistant.

He is very well thought in the game of and has very good footballing connections which the club should benefit from.

The club feel that the level of enthusiasm, desire, commitment and focus that he demonstrated in his interview along with his other attributes made him the natural choice.
