Goalkeeper Hall returned to the club on a permanent deal this summer, having previously enjoyed a loan spell with the Magpies from Aldershot Town during the 2022/23 season. Following his time with Aldershot, the keeper spent two campaigns with Isthmian Premier Division side Bognor Regis Town before linking up with boss Glenn Howes, who also signed him during his initial loan spell at The Avenue, at Gosport Borough last season.
