Don't forget, we're not a Needham Market, Marine or Radcliffe though. There's 175,000 people in the Gloucester area and if we go up, we'll become more relevant. We've got significantly greater ability to scale up compared to those other teams.

I’ve always wondered how Curzon Ashton manage to compete at NLN level with meagre crowds and a relatively low budget.

Is it simply down to good coaching?

They are the fourth biggest team in Manchester, a huge catchment area for players.

On the other hand you'd struggle to name 11 decent players born in Gloucester.

C********m have just announced one of their young players (from Gloucester) has been offered a contract. Mamadou Diallo - teenage goalkeeper who's been on their bench most of the season.

Not really most of the season, just since Owen Evans went on loan to Barnet in January.

The club rate him very highly. Though they also rated Max Harris very highly and he's made more than 100 appearances for Weston Super Mare whilst on loan from us.

A contracted Chelt Town player has played a hundred games on loan at Weston?
