Good evening welcome to the Mackoy Stadium for the 1st Round of the Challenge Cup verses

Moneyfield our neighbours from just down the M27. We are at this stage after beating Gosport

Borough 5-1 at home in the last round. Our last home match saw us bow out of the Emirates FA

Cup to Weymouth the match marked the initial opening of our new clubhouse albeit that the bar

was only available with the tea bar and toilets out of bounds. The match saw a decent crowd of

515 however on the pitch we were unable to upset the National South side 2 Leagues above us.

In Saturday’s Buildbase FA Trophy tonight’s visitors exited the competition to Bristol Manor Farm

who now visit the Mackoy Stadium on Saturday 12th October.

Tonight will see a return to the club former player now captain of Moneyfields Lewis Fennemore.

Lewis was a member of our 2014 FA Vase winning side. Tonight’s match will be decided on the

night so a draw at ninety minutes will go straight to penalties.

Off the field work is still in progress and Claire is working hard to get work completed in the

clubhouse. The next stage of the Development was added when on Saturday we had the air

conditioning completed. We have waited a long time for this to happen at the club and now the

clubhouse is in situ we still all have to remain patient for the completion. Like everything

regarding building works you encounter hiccups. We are already indebted to the numerous

volunteers that we have had help out recently to get us to where we are today. If there is anyone

who wants to get involved in any type of sponsorship, alternatively if you are able to volunteer

any services that the club is in need of to complete the work at the ground please Contact: Claire

Paine on 07887 778266

Also our reserves are preforming well and at home Saturday a seven goal thriller saw them edge

out Downton 4-3. However last Wednesday a trip to Laverstock & Ford for their Wyvern

Challenge Cup match saw a defeat on penalties 7-6 after finishing the ninety minutes 1-1. This

Saturday they travel to QK Soton to play their Hampshire Saturday Trophy formally Hants

Intermediate Cup.

Our Under 18’s succumbed to the 1st postponement of the season when the week end weather

put paid to their away match to Brockenhurst. This week end they will face league leaders

Petersfield Development who are yet to concede a goal.

Hope you enjoy tonight’s match and travel home safely.

NEXT MATCH ON THE ROAD

Away to Moneyfields

Our next away trip will be on Tuesday 29th

October we will be travelling to Moneyfields

This match has been rearranged following both of

us being in Emirates FA Cup action when the

original fixture was scheduled.

No coach will be available for this match.

Moneyfields Club history The club began its current incarnation back in 1987. Having reached to upper age group in the Portsmouth junior, a group of players decided to continue playing as Portsmouth Civil Service reserves. Gradually most of the players moved up to the first team and by 1991 the side had risen from the Portsmouth League to Hampshire League division one on the back of three successive promotions. The club's league success was matched in cup competitions with Portsmouth Senior Cup wins in 1991 and 1992, and Hampshire Intermediate Cup victories in 1992 and 1993. After several seasons in the upper reaches of the Hampshire League, it became apparent that the club would have to move away from their home at Copnor Road if they were to progress. After scouring the city, the club agreed a lease on the old Moneyfields sports ground in Copnor, and so, in 1994, it moved to its current ground and became part of the club whose name they now carry. The Division One years were particularly successful and under the management of George Wain and Mickey Gee, Moneys never finished lower than sixth and clinched the 1996/97 league championship by 15 points. Success on the field was matched by extensive ground developments off it thanks to a national lottery sports fund grant. New changing rooms, offices and a floodlit all-weather pitch were constructed as part of the scheme to bring the facilities up to Wessex League standard. With the requisite developments in place, the 1997/98 campaign saw a tense battle with Blackfield and Langley to see who would claim a spot in the Jewson Wessex league. Although Blackfield just pipped them in the table, Moneyfields' better facilities meant it was they who claimed promotion. The first season in the Wessex league saw the club surprise many people by finishing sixth. The next couple of seasons saw the club post respectable top-ten finishes, but, after finishing a disappointing sixteenth in 2000/01, Messrs Wain and Gee decided to step down after 13 seasons charge. Under the managerial partnerships of Calvin Hore and Terry Arnold/Paul Gregory, and Craig Stafford and Miles Rutherford, the club has established itself in the middle third of the table as well as embarking on a series of runs in the FA Cup and FA Vase. The management line up was boosted in 2004/05 by the arrival of Bobby De St Croix and Alan Smith from Havant and Waterlooville. Where the duo management led us to mid table, for two seasons and getting to the final of the Portsmouth senior cup in 2005/06 losing 4-3 to Gosport borough at West Leigh Park.and in 2006/07 finishing 3rd round of the FA Vase against AFC Totton 2007/08 Saw the sudden departure midseason of Craig Stafford, leading a season to finishing 7th in the league. Finishing as Runners up in the league cup from Wimborne town who beat us up by 1-0.and reaching the 2nd Qualifier in the FA Cup against Team Bath. 2008/09 Saw Moneyfields Best Start to the season leading the remaining 21 teams for a short period of time, and seeing young Connor Bailey Scoring Moneys 100th Goal of the season. The Season Ending positively with the first team and reserves both Finishing third in the table 2009/10 saw Moneyfields, worst season at home, with only 5 home wins all season leaving the club in 12th place. The Reserves ending in 4th place. After five seasons of Moneyfields Glory Bobby St Croix Retired as Manager. Replaced by Former Manager Micky Gee son Graeme Gee who has also been a very loyal player to the team over the years. 2010/11 Season saw us finishing seventh, in the Wessex premier, with Warren Hunt topping a club record of 35 goals in a season, beating Previous Top Season Goal Scorer Lee Moulds. The Reserves Finishing Fourth In The Wessex Combination, with the reserves losing 1-0 In the final of the Portsmouth Senior Cup against Horndean. 2011/12 Season saw us finishing Fourth in the Wessex Premier with Former AFC Bournemouth player Steve Hutchinson finishing Top Goal Scorer of the Season at 34 Goals. The Reserves Finishing Fourth in the new forms Wyvern Combination Football League Premier Division With the reserves losing for the second year in the row in the Portsmouth senior cup Final against United services, being hosted at the glorious Fratton Park Grounds losing 4-3. 2012/13 finalists in the Portsmouth Senior Cup ended when the Club won the trophy in 2013. 2013/14 were losing finalists in the Portsmouth Senior Cup 2014-15 season saw us finishing Fourth Wessex Premier league and reaching second round FA Vase 2015-2016 Saw Moneyfields manager Miles Rutherford resign after 12years been replaced with Dave Carter from Horndean take over as manager in October then finishing eighth in the Wessex Premier league and seeing Moneyfields reaching the fourth of the FA Vase and seeing the reserves finishing second in the Wyvern Combination Football League Premier Division . 2016/17 Moneyfields finished top of the table in Wessex Premier for three days after the fa took three points away for playing in the legal player giving the title to Portland Utd Moneys still got promoted to Evo-stik Southern league East division 2017-18 season. 2017/18 Moneys finished 10th Evo-Stik Southern league East division and entered FA Trophy for the first in their history 2018/19 finished 4th Evo-Stik Sought league division one SOUTH and losing to Yate town in the play offs and wining Portsmouth Seniors Cup.

Sholing Football Club History

The Boatmen have a long but fragmented history, running teams from the Woolston Works as early as 1884, when they

are recorded as being refused permission by the Hants & Dorset FA to introduce fresh players as substitutes at half-time.

In March 1887 they were finalists in the first Portsmouth Challenge Cup, beaten 1-0 by Portsmouth Association Club. The

Club were only beaten twice in 16 games that year (goal tally 72-6) and won the last Hants & Dorset Challenge Cup

before these Associations split.

Woolston Works won the first ever Hampshire Senior Cup Final in 1888, beating Winchester 2-0. There was some

controversy that year concerning Woolstons professional attitude, which was infamously referred to as "Kesson's Boots'.

Andover were beaten in an earlier round by Woolston, in which a Glasgow - based player called J. Kesson played a

prominent part.

Andover protested that Kesson should be disqualified on the grounds of residency - although he had played for Woolston

Works earlier that season, he had since moved back to Glasgow. Woolstons appeal rested on the fact that Kesson had

left a number of clothing items at his lodgings in Woolston, and this should be interpreted as his intention to return. The

Hampshire FA upheld the appeal and allowed Kesson to play.

Re-forming after World War 1 as Thornycrofts (Woolston), they turned professional and were admitted into the Hampshire

County League from 1920/21 to 1925/26. In 1920/21 Thornycrofts reached the FA Cup First Round proper, meeting first

Division Burnley at Fratton Park, and held them to a 0-0 draw, before losing 5-0 in the replay. Burnley were in the middle

of a 30 game unbeaten run and went on to win the first Division Championship.

Thornycrofts Woolston re-formed in 1947 but were only able to keep going until 1952. The Club were re-formed as

Vosper Thornycroft FC in 1960 and joined the Southampton Junior League. After several successful years, Vospers were

promoted to the Hampshire League Division 3 in 1991. The following season they were promoted to Division 2. 1997/98

saw Vospers as Hampshire Division 2 Runners-up and also Hampshire Intermediate Cup Winners.

In 2001/02 Vospers won the Southampton Senior Cup.

2002/03 Vospers were re-named as VT FC (after the parent company), and saw the Club as Runners-up in the

Southampton Senior Cup.

2003/4 saw VT as Hampshire Premier League Champions, Southampton Senior Cup Winners and promotion to the

Sydenhams Wessex League Division 1.

2005/06 VT Reserves won the Southampton Senior Cup at St Mary's Stadium which gave the club their 3rd victory in 5

years.

2006/07 was a great season for the club. The first team finished in third place and the reserves finished runners-up in

Combination 1 and they also won the Southampton Senior Cup again. The Club's 4th victory in 6 years.

2007/2008 The 1st team were Runners-up to Totton in the Premier League and the Reserves won 3 out of 4 trophies.

They are the Sydenhams (Wessex) Combination 1 League Champions, the Southampton Senior Cup Champions (for the

third consecutive year) and the Sydenhams (Wessex) Combination Cup Champions. They missed out on the Hampshire

Intermediate Cup by losing to Nursling in the semi-final which was the ONLY defeat they suffered all season. An

achievement to be proud of.

2008/09 was equally a very successful season with the first team again Runners-up in the Wessex Premier, this time to

Poole Town. They were Wessex League Cup Winners with a close 2-1 victory over Hamworthy United. Runners-up in the

Hampshire Senior Cup with a narrow 1-0 defeat against Fleet Town. Reserves again won Wessex Combination 1 and the

U18 Youth team made a clean sweep winning four trophies i.e The League, The League Cup, The Hampshire FA Youth

Cup and the Echo Floodlit Cup....what a great season.

2009/10 In our very first season in the Zamaretto Southern League we finished a creditable 4th (play-off position) in the

South & West Division and finished Runners-up in the Red Insure League Cup after going so close and finally losing on

penalties to Cambridge City. The Reserves regained the Southampton Senior Cup at St Mary's defeating Team Solent

2-0....the sixth time in the last ten years the Club has won it.

The Club changed their name in July 2010 to Sholing FC after the parent company VT Group were no longer in

existence.

2010/11 In only their second season in the Southern League South & West, the 1st team reached an incredible 2nd

place, only 2 points behind AFC Totton. Also Hampshire Senior Cup Finalists at St Marys losing 3-1 to AFC Totton. The

Reserves gained an incredible Double by winning the Wessex Combination League and League Cup in its Final year.

2011/12 For the third season on the trot we once again reached the playoffs only to fall at the first hurdle by a 1-0 away

defeat by Gosport. The reserves copied last year's achievement by winning the League and League Cup in the newly

formed Wyvern League.

2012/13 Despite being bottom of the league just before Christmas, the first team went on an incredible run in the second

half of the season and finished 7th in the Southern League South & West. The Reserves once again won the Wyvern

League, this time going unbeaten the whole season.

The club made the difficult decision to voluntarily drop out of the Southern League South & West (step 4) and into the

Wessex League Premier (step 5). With the focus of the club turning to developing the Silverlake Arena, we didn't want

to financially extend ourselves and sink into debt.

2013/14 Back in the Wessex League Premier Division saw the club playing lots of old local rivals and the first team got

off to a storming start to the season and it wasn't to be until February when we were first defeated. However, due to

terrible weather & cup commitments, the club barely played in January & February, meaning a huge backlog of fixtures

in the final weeks of the season. Despite having to play 20 games in 30 days, including NINE successive away games,

Sholing won the League with 104 points and a goal difference of +105.

The Reserves made it a hat-trick of Wyvern League titles in the most thrilling way, scoring a goal in injury time in the last

game of the season, to deny Portchester the title. They also won the Southampton Senior Cup at St Mary's.

Of course, the FA Vase win will be what most people will remember from this season, the greatest honour in the club's

history. Back in October as we faced Winchester in the 1st round, no one was dreaming of Wembley, but as the rounds

were ticked off, we started to get the feeling that this would be our year. So on the 10th May 2014 at the home of

football, Wembley Stadium, backed by over 3,000 fans, Marvin Mclean scored the only goal and Byron Mason & Dave

Diaper lifted the Vase. In a whirlwind of activity that followed, the team paraded the FA Vase in front of the

Southampton FC fans at St Mary's, were given an official reception by the Mayor of Southampton and appeared on both

local TV stations.

After 15 years in charge of the first team, Dave Diaper handed over the reins to Dave Fear & Mick Marsh, in order to

concentrate on the Ground redevelopment (for which the club has kindly received backing and grants from Sport

England & the FA to build a new clubhouse and 3G pitch). We also said a fond goodbye to players Marc Diaper,

Tyronne Bowers & Lee Bright, who all decided to "retire at the top" after Wembley.

2014/15 Club was granted promotion back into the Southern League South & West division. After 21 matches in charge

Mick Marsh & Dave Fear stepped down from their managerial role leaving Chairman Dave Diaper to step back into the

fray alongside Stuart Hussey. Sholing finished in 17th position having been in that position for 32 weeks. Sholing

reached the semi-final Russell-Cotes cup and the final of the Hampshire Senior Cup losing out 3-0 to Gosport Borough

at Fratton Park. Ground grading issues saw Sholing relegated back to the Wessex League.

The Reserves much like the 1st team had a change of management part way through the season with Martin Tongs

stepping up from U18’s to take charge. The Wyvern title eluded them this season losing out to AFC Portchester and had

to settle for runners up and the two cup competitions saw them runners up again to Petersfield Town in the League Cup

but were successful in the John Stimpson Memorial Shield beating AFC Totton.

2015/16 Following a ground grading issue Sholing returned back to the Sydenhams Wessex League. Sholing welcomed

Darren Burdle into the coaching staff. A remarkable season for Sholing as ten players from within the under 18 ranks

made their first team appearances something that has never happened before. Cup disappointments meant the season

was all about the League and Sholing finished the season Runners Up to Salisbury losing one home League game

which was our first game against Moneyfields the only team to do the League double over us. Dan Mason was pipped

by former Sholing striker Sam Wilson on the final day of the season to deny Dan being the League’s leading scorer.

2016/17: Behind the scenes saw another change in management within the Development side with Iain Calder Steve

Ross & Steve Blackburn taking over the reins. Finishing 4th in the League and reaching S/F of JSMS & ¼ Final of SDFA

Sen Cup. Sholing FC were rocked in Dec 16 with the sudden death of Coach Darren Burdle aged 50. Sholing FC

finished season 3rd

with Dan Mason again being the leading marksman. Sholing completed a cup double winning the

Sydenhams Wessex League Cup then 52 hrs later lifted the SDFA Senior Cup for the 9th time at St Mary’s.

2017/18: The season like last season saw changes in management with Development manager Iain Calder stepping up

to 1st team coach. Steve Blackburn & Curtis Osbourne along with Steve Ross took on the Development role and took

the U18’s to the 1st Round of the FA Youth Cup. Steve & Curtis left the club midseason with Patrick McGonigle and

Steve Terry doubling up their roles with U18’S and Development with Steve Ross. The 1st team finished third in the

Sydenhams Wessex League and failed to defend both trophies losing out in the semi-finals in both competitions. The

Development side finished mid-table with many U18’s stepping up to the Development side. The U18’s won the HCY

League Cup and a number of the U18’S featured in 1st team games.

2018/19: Sholing won the Sydenhams Wessex League title with 8 games remaining of the season & promotion back to

Bet Victor Southern League South a winning double was achieved beating Christchurch to win the Russell-Cotes Cup

for the 1st time in their history. The Reserves finished runners-up in The Wyvern Combination League Premier Division

with the U18’s losing out on penalties to Moneyfields in HCYL League Cup Final.
