Pattison is a free agent following a stint with Bidvest Wits in South Africa and is looking to return to the UK. He has experience of English football after starting his career with Newcastle and also spending time with Norwich City. The 27-year-old midfielder is now set to be given the chance to try and earn a contract with Bristol City, although he is still open to other offers at the current time. His agent, Jonathan Hope, said: "Matty is raring to go and Bristol City have huge plans so we are hopeful of going in as soon as they return from their tour. "He would definitely be a huge coup for the club should all go well. âI believe in the player and (fellow agent) Tony Asghar and myself believe that Bristol City is where Matty would shine. âHowever, he is still free and if an offer came in elsewhere we would have to look at this also."
Who the bloody hell is he! Never heard of him but did a twitter search and he was arrested for drink driving in his underwear Sign him up
He is from South Africa so it's obvious the move back there was due to family reasons, not ability. He was however part of the Norwich team that got relegated from the championship and played over 40 games that season.... I smell another Kilkenny!
Old school agent nonsense. He wouldn't shine here or any English league, they are just desperate for him to land anywhere. Try the blue few they aren't adverse to signing our after thoughts and it sounds as if non league is his level.
If he were a small fraction of the player that Gazza was, well, we wouldn't be getting anywhere near him
