All the best Barton and hope to see you get back. Your club has been so refreshing in the cash oriented world of the top 2 divisions and I wish you every success.
2 things, firstly how do you stand reference ground redevelopment when you come up again as it would be your 3rd season ref the all seater ruling?
Secondly, please accept our apologies for the facilities at the 'other' Bristol club and batter the bastards out of sight please?
Good luck fella!!

Thanks for the comments ciderup..
If we come up - then we have one season where we are permitted terracing. That would then be the third season.
Ben Robinson the chairman has said he would then develop the ground, and would seat the popside ( the long terrace ) and develop the two end terraces by using the footings and facilities underneath but extending up and reroofing. (We did toy last year with putting a second tier on the away end to get more of you in ). Capacity indicated would be 8,000 which is more than enough for us.
It does need doing as the ground does feel very non league.
As for the minority team in Bristol..you do know we have a shocking record against them ?? Seriously - we always get battered at their ground. 7-1 and 4-0 I think.
Will try our best for you though..!
Good luck next season robins - you have been a credit this year, esp in the cup.

You're definitely an inspiration for us smaller clubs! Hopefully we can follow you someday.
