Back Down To Earth With A Bump At Bristol City

by David James

"Playing in the Championship after years in the Premier League is a culture shock but I'm relishing the challenge at Bristol City"

Eleven weeks in the Championship with Bristol City and I have to say my Premier League bubble has well and truly burst.

As a top-flight footballer you tend to

I always liked him when he was playing for England so I guess I'm glad to know he's doing okay way down there in the Championship.

It´s always interesting to see how different the leagues are and how big a jump it is from Prem to Championship and it makes it easier to understand why there are so many yo-yo clubs and why some teams really struggle if they do make it up to the Prem.

I also love the fact that his team mates were all a bit star struck to have a "celeb" on the team

Wow - very interesting read.

And respect to James for being so brutally honest.

I've always liked DJ's columns- nice to see that he's continuing even though he's no longer in the prem

He comes off as quite intelligent, more unusual than it should be in footballers!

I love David James, he's always so eloquent in his articles.
