sglosbcfc Posted April 1, 2016 Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 It is certainly a gamble and could backfire on us....I'm also hearing rumors that Nathan Baker will be signing a dual registration with the new Bristol Sport Sychronised Swimming Team.

Ivorguy Posted April 1, 2016 Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 Excellent joke by City, and full marks to Aden for a great interview. Shows the spirit in this club Relegation - certainly not.

reddogkev Posted April 1, 2016 Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 I've had breakfast today with Flint and the boys up North, (stayed in the same hotel) and Flint confirmed this is happening. Seems a strange one, but Flint did let slip that SL is concerned the Flyers aren't a big enough draw in Bristol, and he needs to find creative ways to build their support. No way would we have done this if we were in the bottom 3. Bit of a risk, but I'm sure Aiden can handle it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where he visited and took a training session. Did a photoshop of RC in City training gear. Was a good one and got me.
