I am shocked and saddened to see you have passed away 😪 you took a chance on me as a non league player and let me live my dream. Playing for you for 5 years I learnt so much. A man of pure class, a true legend. Sleep easy my Gaffer forever. RIP ⚽️

This for me today meant more than any football match. What a delight it was to see Alex walk out at TP. Obviously disappointed to lose and not play well but in life there is always a bigger picture

Our club gave it's all to get the play offs on. My staff and players gave their all. We all committed to it during Covid. Our supporters backed us and recognised the huge amount of effort WE have had to put in. WE fell short. I'm sorry for that. Time to reflect 🖤⚽️🖤
This beats any win in football . The best news we received Saturday night on the coach journey home. Keep fighting and improving Fletch.
You know we have got you pal 🙏

Couldn't be prouder of my club, players, staff and supporters. Today was all about our number 7 Fletch. We are doing it all for him in our own way

Very few hours sleep and a day of reflection. Gutted to go out in playoffs but a season of positivity and achievement with our resources. The group of players that gave absolutely everything who have been a pleasure to work with week in week out. You energised me !! .........

FULL TIME Bath City 5-0 Chippenham Town. Biggest ever NYD win, biggest home crowd for us at this level, joint biggest margin win over Chippenham in club's history. Happy New Year? I guess so. First half blew the Bluebirds away, professional second. Tremendous.
Try every other week to London from Bath on the day of a game for part time non-league players and staff who also have to work for a living. Travel is all part and parcel of a footballers career and important for team bonding aswell 🙄⚽️

I've got an idea
@jimrollouk
let's paint the popular side back walls black and white 🙈 hard days graft with my mucker but it will look amazing when the 2nd coat goes on ......
For all those who say your lucky to be a professional footballer. No it takes hard work, sacrifices and resilence. Sometimes Academy environments may not work for a young player. Biggest thing for me get out and play games. Be challenged but also enjoy some success ⚽️
Staggering stats. 97% of former cat 1 academy players now aged 21 to 26 never made an EPL appearance.
70% weren't handed a pro contract at an EPL or EFL club. And only 1 in 10 went on to make more than 20 league appearances in the top four tiers of English football.
Well that's it then. At last we have clarity after a very disjointed and emotional 13 game season for us all at Bath City FC. No football for 5 months is going to be tough but recruitment targeting and planning for season 21/22 has already started. See you all soon
