A certain footballer was well known for saying 'It's a funny old game'. It's certainly that. We are now in a new decade, and when you analyse where we’ve come from, it truly is a remarkable rise.

The Decade just gone… 2009-2010 CCL Division 1 : 5th of 21 teams ------2015-2016 CCL Premier: 1st of 22 ( Champions ) 2016-2017 CCL Premier: 1st of 23 ( Promoted ) 2017-2018 EvoStik South E: 4th of 22 ( Promoted ) 2018-2019 Southern Premier South : 8th

We are indebted to our main sponsor Boss for their continued support, and to CSL and Honey Brothers . However, the level we now play at is well beyond the realms of true amateur sport, and whilst we are fortunate to have a band of loyal players, we still need to be financially attractive to them if we want to stay competitive at this level. Indeed, if we want to stay at this level.

And this is where you, the loyal Row Supporter, can play your part! We have launched a BUDGET BOOSTER FUND.

And it’s not just about the first team. We hear the concerns some have that the first team gets it all. But the donations importantly free up our resources to help us support all our other Saturday & midweek teams.

The substantial work we had to undertake to ensure the Memorial Ground achieved the necessary FA ground grading inevitably stretched the purse strings to the limit. The improvements, however, benefits all our teams and their supporters, making it a more pleasurable experience to watch games here.

At a time when the 11 a-side game at grassroots level is dying countrywide, we need your help to keep it alive locally.

We are running an online fundraising app on our website. The app accepts Pay- Pal & Credit Cards. Alternatively, you have the option of pledging a cash amount which you can then give at the clubhouse. It’s set to run until 31st March and the overall target is £4000.

He has guided us to two league titles, two promotions taking us from step 5 to step 3, a Hampshire Senior Cup Semi-Final, and lifting the Aldershot Senior Cup. Tactically astute and, whilst he can be uncompromising, he has a way with his players that engenders loyalty.

Steve Noakes : Assistant Manager Steve became Millers’ number 2 at the end of Septem- ber 2019, having joined the Row as an experienced player ahead of the 2014/15 season, taking on the captaincy. His presence on the pitch, as well as his ability on the ball, helped guide us from the Combined Counties League to the Southern League.

Neil Woodyer : First Team Coach Neil joins us this season, well known to Millers from Neil’s time as assistant manager at Camberley some 10 years ago. Strong in his opinion yet very willing to hear another point of view, Woody’s approachable manner makes him a real asset.

Sam Rafique : First Team Coach Sam holds a UEFA License and is also currently an academy coach with Aldershot Town FC. Into his second season with us, he’s had spells at Fleet Town, Godalming Town & Camberley Town. Affable and very approachable, Sam works incredibly hard for the Club.
