Sure is - and straight in to the first team on returning from u-20 duty in Turkey for recent friendlies:
Bristol City's scorer vs Clevedon Town in 2-1 friendly loss a week ago: http://www.pitchero.com/clubs/clevedontown/s/match-report-6657.html?official=0&fixture_id=1815977
" Clevedon Town started their pre-season games at the Hand Stadium with a win over Bristol City by two goals to one. The weather was kind and a crowd in excess of 1,100 saw both sides set out to play entertaining football on a very green surface.

Bristol City took first blood when a spate of interplay in and around the home area saw Rhys Jordan eventually slot home to give the visitors an early lead..."
Didn't get a run against Glasgow Rangers during the weekend:
"The head coach has so far fielded different elevens in each half for the friendlies with Ashton & Backwell United and Clevedon Town. 

But against the Scottish giants, O’Driscoll says players will be given longer to impress. 

He told bcfc.co.uk: “I aim to play one strong team for as long as I can before making changes. That’ll be better than playing two separate elevens, so we’ll see how we go. 

“So far in the pre-season friendlies we’ve given those involved a 45-minute run out and we’ve not chopped and changed within that. 

“We wanted two games early in pre-season for the players’ benefit, but more importantly to help out two local clubs. 

“We’ve got four games left in pre-season and we’ll go away for a week for a training camp after the Rangers game too. 

“I don’t really want to go into the season without knowing my best eleven. 

“We have good players individually but that’s no good if they don’t operate as a team. That’s been the biggest problem.”

A funny one that, returning on a one month loan to the amateur club he transferred to Bristol from. Either things haven't been going well at Bristol or Bristol felt he would benefit from time back with friends and family on Guernsey I guess.

Isthmian South. I've seen Dorking Wanderers play. The standard is crap.
