Now Player-Coach Leaves Moneyfields

Poate follows management team to Wessex League club.

Brett Poate has joined manager Dave Carter and assistant Gavin Spurway in leaving Pitching In Southern Football League Division One South club Moneyfields to become player-coach at Sydenhams Football League (Wessex) Premier side AFC Portchester.

The 37-year-old vastly experienced defender was appointed player-coach at Moneyfields in June 2020.

The former Havant & Waterlooville and Gosport Borough man had been at Moneys since January 2017, signing after his six-year stay at Gosport had come to an end.

He had previously played for Hawks between 2003 and 2009 before moving to Eastleigh for two seasons.

The one-time Southampton youngster played 14 times that season as Moneys went on to win promotion from the Wessex League, and he remained a regular in the club’s three seasons of Step 4 football ever since.
