    RICHARD FOSTER is expecting a hostile atmosphere when he returns to old club Bristol City tomorrow but insists he has no regrets about joining the English side.


    The full-back only negotiated his released from the Ashton Gate outfit last month in order to clear the way for a switch to Ibrox.

    Foster will take up a contract with the club on September 1 subject to registration when the club’s transfer embargo comes to an end.

    But he is free to play before then as a trialist and should feature at some point against the League One outfit.

    Foster, 27, spent a season and a half with the Robins after going there from Aberdeen and was a regular under Derek McInnes.

    But his spell there turned sour when the present Dons manager was sacked and he was told he was no longer wanted.

    Foster is glad he went despite the move not working out – but that doesn’t mean he expects a friendly welcome this weekend.

    He said: “I don’t think I’ll be getting a great reception from the fans there. If a player leaves their club, I don’t think they welcome him back when he goes back to Ashton Gate.

    “In fairness, that’s just football. There’ll be plenty of Rangers supporters there in any case so hopefully they’ll drown them out.

    “It was tough for me down there because I went straight into a relegation fight but I played all the games bar the last one, when we were already safe.

    “I started last season and played at first but while we started to struggle a bit in the league, I was still playing and having a relatively good season personally.
    “It was disappointing a new manager came in and brought someone else in without really having a look at me but that happens.

    “You should never really have any regrets. I always wanted to play in England at some point and I can say I’ve done that now.

    “I’ve seen what the standard is like and I can play in the Championship. It’s another bit of experience on my CV and that’s a good thing, even if it didn’t work out.”

    This guy is on his own planet, he clearly thinks highly of himself if he thinks they'll be a hostile reception, personally i'll give him a standing ovation and shake his hand knowing he will never take a wage off us and wear the red and white shirt again..
