Bristol Rovers got relegated from the Football League this afternoon. I won’t gloat. I have nothing against The Gas, even though it is a little bit funny. OK, quite a bit funny. However, there are many more clubs I would like to see go down instead – sadly, David Moyes’ mission to relegate Manchester United was cut short.

The reason I am pleased that they have gone down, is that somewhere on my Football Bucket List, is a dream to see Bath City play Bristol Rovers in a league match. Yes, we’re still a division apart, but hopefully I’ll be able to tick it off my list before too long. Ideally this will involve Bath City getting promoted into The Conference Premier, and joining Rovers, and not Brizzle going down again!

If any Rovers fans are still reading this and haven’t smashed their PC screen, started writing an abusive comment, or left their house to track me down in an act of revenge (please don’t!), read on…

Relegation will hurt now. I know all too well, experiencing it with Bath City and Leeds. However, once the wounds of today have healed, look forward to next season. Non-League isn’t all too bad. Some of my best away days were spent in that league over two seasons. You’ll have some fun. Relegation may be just what your club needs to regroup and come back stronger – á la Luton Town. Luton should be a warning, however. There is no easy return to League Two. The Conference is tough. There are no easy games and a lot of big, full time clubs are down there. Luton have only just been promoted, after five years. Wrexham, Kidderminster and Cambridge United, all former league clubs, are still trying to get back.

If we don’t meet in the league, see you in the FA Trophy.

I’m sure you’re all desperate for an update on the dead squirrel I saw yesterday, while on my travels… Breaking news: It has gone! There is no trace of it. No blood, no guts, no fur – nothing! This leaves me with the conclusion that the body has either been…

  • Eaten by something. Probably a fox or maybe a drunkard. Possibly a drunk fox.
  • Had a funeral and been buried or cremated
  • Stolen and turned into a takeaway by the curry house, which has recently opened down the road

If it is the latter option and you’re having a curry for your tea tonight – enjoy!

Spotted while exploring the woodland surrounding our office.

Can we all take a minute from our busy lives to remember the life of Mr. Nuts… or Miss. Berry (I didn’t check underneath)

  • About Me

    So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?

    If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.

    However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.

    You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.

    All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
