Shots Re-Shape The Club's Board With Three Directors

In a big boost the club, and possibly manager Gary Waddock, the three new members have all purchased shares in the Shots.

“I have lived all my life in Aldershot,” said Wood, “with a family who are all avid Shots supporters, including my wife and, of course, my brother-in-law, Mark Butler. I want to help both the club and the town, and having met Shahid Azeem a number of times I am impressed by his ambitions to help the Club drive activities throughout Aldershot.

“I want to make a positive contribution to the town, and love his ideas to get everybody in Aldershot involved in the Club.”

Hussain, a director of Woking-based construction company Sharaz Homes, is also on board.

“We want to give something back to the communities in which we are working,” said Hussain. “As huge football fans we felt that supporting our local football club was the best way to do that, and I love coming to home matches at the EBB Stadium.

“It is an honour to be a director of Aldershot Town, and I hope I can support the club’s infrastructure as well as bring new businesses on board.”

The club also introduced Khan, who has 35 years of experience in the corporate world.

“Both my wife and I have become ardent fans,” he said.

“Having the opportunity to help Aldershot Town progress to a new level, commercially, is really exciting for me – especially being able to mix business with football! I hope to make a positive and meaningful difference to the club.”
