Defeat to Brighton was, and is, hard to take - for the fans, players, manager and the board of the club. We finished third and I believe we are a better team than Brighton, although we simply didn't play to our potential in the play-off's. I don't know why, it's just one of those things. Already the club are preparing for another season in Div Two and players have been given fre transfers. Additionally a few other players are out of contract and if the media is to be believed, they can't expect the same financial terms.

For me, this season hasn't been what I'd hoped for. I honestly don't think the football in this division suits my style of play. I'm not being funny about it, I just believe I'd be able to contribute to and influence games to a better degree at a higher standard. I signed for City after leaving a steady Premiership club because I backed Danny Wilson's plans and faith that we'd go up. It hasn't happened and now we have to face the consequences. I don't know whether the club want me to stay or not...I guess it just depends on the financial position here.

If it's time to move on then I'll be disappointed, I feel it's a job that's not been completed - and that's not my preferred way of doing things. I've settled into Bristol and it only seems five minutes since we bought our house. We have our second child on the way and the last thing I really want to do is pack up and leave. However, in professional rather than domestic terms, it may be the best to move on. At this point in time there are alot of variables out there and we need to see what materialises. At this point I'm a City player, and for as long as it stays that way, I'll give it everything on the pitch to get us up.
