Following a battle of the heavyweights with Chomper, goalkeeper Meredith has made the No.1 shirt his own. Since taking over between the sticks his consistent performances have stemmed the leaky BOI backline and clean sheets are now a regular occurrence.

Nickname: Chomper’s Brother

2. Sam Coles

Full back with a tough tackling no-nonsense attitude. Not afraid to voice his feelings when there is an injustice. Likes to get forward on the overlap and has built up a good understanding with Turner on the right flank.

Nicknames: Colesey, Red Mist

3. Matt Andrews

Solid defender Andrews has been plagued with injury this season following a manly attempt at the Bristol half marathon. He is set to return for the second half of the season to bolster the defence. Matt is club secretary and despite sending Dougie on a wild goose chase to Highridge is a front runner for the clubman of the year award.

Nickname: Bulldog

4. Dan Donaldson

Commanding centre-half who has taught Rio everything he knows. Feels at home in the green & white of Olympique having represented Yeovil Town at youth level. Donaldson was delighted to score his 1st goal in 5 years this season breaking an old gypsy curse. Set to miss much of the season following a knee op but may have done enough to lift the player of the year award.

Nicknames: Dougie, Double D, Rio

5. Andrew Darby

Darby has formed a formidable partnership in the centre of defence with Dougie. Good in the air and on the floor, he likes to get forward and support the midfield whenever possible, giving the gaffer more grey hairs each time he does.

Nickname: Darby

6. Mark Davis

The gaffer leads by example covering every blade of grass on the pitch. Never backs out of a challenge and earned respect with a single handed attempt to fight the whole Hogs Head team. More composure in front of goal would surely see him as the teams leading scorer.

Nicknames: Gaffer, Barlow

7. Tom Perrott

Having played at the highest level Bristol has to offer, wing wizard Tom brings a touch of quality to the Olympique midfield. If the big boys make better use of his excellent corners BOI could find themselves in the promotion zone. A leading candidate for player of the year.

Nicknames: Perro, Del Piero, Tommy 2 Feet

8. Kevin Turner

As Olympique captain Turner ensures spirits are kept high in the dressing room. Has invented a nickname for every member of the squad, is best friends with all match officials makes a joke about the 51 bus with every late tackle. The normally reliable penalty taker has now handed over the responsibility following a confidence shattering miss that would have earned a respectable draw with league leaders Littlesea.

Nickname: Burger Boy

9. Adam Forster

The BOI’s No.9 has an uncanny resemblance to former Bristol City mummy’s boy Tony Thorpe. They are similar in every way except for their goalscoring records. IT wizkid Forster is ever present this season, even if the rozzers have to scrape him off the pavement and escort him to the game.

Nickname: Thorpey, F.F

10. Nick Charlton

Pint sized top scorer Charlton is the menace of Bristol & Wessex League Div 1 defences with his ability to run unnoticed between their legs. Nicky’s clinical finishing sees him as a contender for player of the year.

Nickname: Nasty Nicky, Pest

11. Phil Bell

Bell can normally be seen strutting his stuff at Castro’s and has missed part of the season on the fudge packing nightclub’s tour of mince capital San Francisco. Disappointed not to have started more games this season the versatile Bell has impressed when given the opportunity.

Nickname: Jingle, Euro-Bell, Taco-Bell

12. Simon Thorne

Plays in goal on a Saturday and shows his calibre by turning out in centre midfield for the BOI’s on a Sunday. Thorney’s skills alongside the gaffer’s tenacity make the perfect midfield partnership. Not afraid to shoot from long range Thorne is also dangerous arriving late into the opponent’s box. Has the best car in the team.

Nickname: Thorney

13. Olivier Le Pinpec

The Frenchman, drawn to the team by its continental name, often looks confused when he is unceremoniously hauled down by a fat balding 40 something opposition defender. His much needed gallic flair has seen Le Pinpec move towards the top of the Olympique goal scoring charts and he is a front runner for the joueur de la récompense d'année.

Nickname: Zizu

14. Darren Morgan

His body and looks mean that men want to be him and women want to be with him. Morgan’s commitment to the club is second to none, he is always willing to warm the subs bench or run the line and he handles the finances like a banker. The only thing letting Morgan down in his quest for clubman of the year is a lack of balls.

Nickname: The Greek Adonis

15. Tom Dowling

Versatile Tom has a commitment on the pitch that is second to none. Tom will even knock team mates out (of the way) in his desire to win the ball. Comfortable in defence or midfield he is a real benefit to the BOI’s

Nickname: Growler

16. Rich Stevens

When his moped is firing on all cylinders so does Stevens. Utility player Stevens is a quiet lad off the pitch but gives his all when required on the pitch in any position.

Nicknames: Sheephead, Jamie Oliver

17. Chomper

Started the season as 1st choice keeper but, having lost out in the battle of the heavyweights, now focuses primarily on drinking cider. Chomper is threatening to make a return on the left flank should Tommy P suffer a dip in form.

Nicknames: Craig, Leg Breaker, Jumbo

And a special mention to Olympique's number one ( and only ) fan.

18. Sam Woods

Head cheer leader and chair of the supporters club. Sam shows incredible dedication to the team by turning up at some undesirable venues in all conditions to cheer on the mighty Olympique BOI. Sam is another contender for clubman (or woman) of the year.
