Rendell Coup for Stags

Pitching In Southern League Division One South club AFC Totton have pulled off something of a coup by signing vastly experienced forward Scott Rendell.

The 35-year-old has played all his previous football at either Football League or National League level, joining the Stags from National League South neighbours Havant & Waterlooville.

He had signed for the Hawks at the start of the 2021/22 season from then-National League South rivals Maidstone United, where he had been since arriving in July 2020 from National League outfit Eastleigh.

He had been with the Spitfires since moving from National League rivals Aldershot Town at the end of the 2018/19 season.

He has also played for the likes of Cambridge United, Peterborough United, Torquay United, Wycombe Wanderers, Luton Town and Woking. And during his time with Woking between the 2013/14 and 2015/16 seasons, he was the leading Conference goalscorer for two seasons in a row, scoring 17 in 34 and 24 in 40 respectively, before his spell with Cards ended at the start of the following season due to injury.

AFC Totton boss Jimmy Ball told his club’s website: “Scotty Rendell is a signing! People who’ve been in and around this level of football are going to sit up and take notice,” the AFC Totton manager enthused.

“I’ve been aware of him for a long time and come up against him a few times. He’s always been a player to cause problems for defenders. In addition, there are a handful of people you trust in football, whose opinions you can rely on, and he comes highly recommended.

“Like all the players we’ve brought to the club since I’ve been here, he’s another one who joins us from higher up the football pyramid. We haven’t quite managed to bring in every player that we originally targeted but I’m very happy with the business we’ve done and I’m raring to get stuck into this pre-season programme and to get the season underway”.
