The club can confirm that we have agreed an undisclosed fee for Josh Barrett to move from Aldershot Town to an unnamed club for the 2026/27 season and beyond.

I don't think there's a Shots fan out there who doesn't agree that what Josh did here at Aldershot Town was magic! Having recently joined the Shots 100 club, Josh accumulated over 40 goals and assists for the club in that time.

A couple of the many key moments in a Shots shirt, include a beautiful Boxing Day free-kick against rivals Woking and his hat-trick against Oldham Athletic in a 3-1 away win for the Shots.

Needless to say, a huge part of our Wembley success, where he scored an absolute screamer in the final to make it 3-0 to the Shots, a moment I'm sure every single fan will never forget!

Shots manager Scott Davies had this to say "Firstly, it’s a huge thanks to Josh for what he’s done for this football club during his time here. From afar I have always seen that Josh has been a fan's favourite in the way he plays the game and admire his undoubted ability as a footballer.

Josh made it evidently clear that with a young family, he wanted security by having more than one year left on his current contract.

From a club's point of view, it was difficult to offer Josh a new and improved deal at this time so we’ve reluctantly accepted an offer from elsewhere.

We thank Josh for his time at the club and wish him well in the future".

He's got magic in his boots, he bleeds red and blue, Shots fans, join us in thanking Josh Barrett for all his efforts during his 2 and a half years here, once a Shot, always a Shot!

📣CLUB STATEMENT:

The club can confirm that after a meeting took place today at The EBB Stadium with Deane Wood and John Coleman, both have agreed a mutual termination of John Coleman's contract here at Aldershot Town.

John will remain in charge for the final game of the season this Saturday Vs Truro, so please join us in giving John a loud and proud send off🤝

Signing for the Shots as first-team manager back in October 2025, John joined us in a period with one of our hardest challenges as a football club on the pitch. By the start of December, we were 7 points adrift in the relegation zone, having secured just 13 points in this time. From then, with a number of key signings John and the squad turned things around, with a run which put us to the top of the form list continuing into the new year.

Deane Wood expressed his gratitude for John's efforts and the way which he carried himself, but most importantly, keeping the club up, but feels a change is needed due to the recent run of results, giving the club the best possible chance of a reset in the summer.

This football club would like to thank John for his efforts during his time here, and wish him all the very best for his future endeavors!

The club can also confirm that player-coach James Henry will also be leaving at the end of the season after our final fixture Vs Truro.

James, featuring 83 times for the Shots scoring 22 goals in the red and blue, James has been a huge part both on and off the pitch during the past 2 seasons, and we'd like to thank him for all his efforts during his time here as well🔴🔵

🎖INTRODUCING OUR 2026/27 CENTENARY THIRD SHIRT🤝

📣AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDERS NOW!

https://t.co/SPRvu18HX6

Get your first glimpse of this one off shirt appearance for the 2025/26 season.

This special edition Aldershot Town Football Club shirt stands as a powerful tribute to the town’s proud military heritage and the club’s deep-rooted bond with the British Army. Designed with a refined sense of respect and symbolism, the shirt seamlessly blends performance and pride in a garment that speaks to over a century of shared history between club, community, and country.

The deep olive-green body and subtle camouflage patterning across the sleeves evoke the tones of military uniform — a visual nod to the soldiers who have lived, trained, and served from the Home of the British Army in Aldershot. These details are not merely decorative, they carry the weight of identity, honouring the regimental spirit and resilience that have long defined both the town and its football team.

On the left chest, the club’s historic crest takes pride of place. The red and blue shield dates back to the original Aldershot Football Club, whose identity helped forge the town’s sporting character for much of the 20th century.

This is more than a shirt — it’s a salute. A salute to Aldershot’s history, its heroes, and the spirit that continues to march proudly from the barracks to the EBB Stadium every matchday.

This shirt being worn Saturday in our Remembrance Day fixture, will take it's place as our third kit for the 2026/27 season, giving a nod to the history of Aldershot.

Please note, this shirt is for pre-order only and won't be available to collect or delivery for supporters until January at the very earliest.
