Bittner To Get Gloucester Run Out


Former Bulls keeper James Bittner is to get a game with Gloucester City tomorrow.

The match is not so much a trial but to put the 31 year old in the shop window. Tigers boss David Mehew told the Gloucester Citizen that he needed a keeper with regular Mike Green still injured:

"He's doing us a favour and hopefully we can do him a favour as well by putting him in the shop window for a game or two and getting him some match practice.

"He lives in Devizes so he will probably play for us in our game at Swindon Supermarine and then we expect to have Mike back ready for selection for when we go to Shortwood at the start of August."

Meanwhile, Eastleigh manager Richard Hill has spoken about their signing of Stuart Fleetwood. Speaking to their official site, Hill said: "The one position I felt we needed was a left sided player. We knew Fleetwood was speaking to clubs in the Conference, albeit a little bit further north than he would have wished so I turned my interest towards another couple of left sided players.

"It then became evident that Fleets didn’t want to move up north and he made it known to me through Chris Todd that he would be delighted to come and play for Eastleigh FC. 

"We are seeing a shift now in the esteem that the club we now are as the players of this calibre want to come and play for Eastleigh."
