We look ahead to the start of the new season with the same thoughts as last season: we are likely to be relegated. Now, it didn't happen last season because we pulled off some great results at just the right time. However, it's unlikely we'll be so lucky this time around. So, that's the long term forecast.

So far as the first session is concerned, we'll struggle to advance in the FA Cup, but hope our AP Cup performances will make up for it.

Meantime, it would be good if we could strengthen the squad. The trouble is that all the good players are fetching top-dollar prices.

Regardless, it's good to be back in action. Let's go Bristol City!
