    If there is a move to Eastington (10 minutes away), I don't think too many supporters would be bothered. I can't see Dale Vince changing the name to Stroud.

    There is no way FGR could go any higher if they did not re-locate. The capacity cannot be increased and the parking situation on match days is dire. Luckily Cardiff and FGR home matches coincide so I am not affected by the occasional gridlocks!

    When I first moved to Forest Green (1985) Gloucester City were the highest ranked club in Glos followed by > Cheltenham Town > Forest Green > Shortwood United
    I guess Cinderford Town and Cirencester Town would both both be above Shortwood these days?

    Just looked it up. You are correct. I thought it would have been the other way round.

    Gloucester City are National League (North) ... level 6
