Two Brothers with One Purpose

The two McCombe brothers John and Jamie are both with clubs hoping for promotion this season. John, who is the younger of the two, is with Hereford United and Jamie with Bristol City.

John moved to Edgar Street from Huddersfield during the summer and has formed an excellent partnership in the heart of defence with Dean Beckwith.

"Hopefully we can both get promotion," John told the Western Daily Press. "Our mum and dad and our granddads and auntie and uncle like to go to as many of our games as they can. Someone is always there watching us.

"Jamie has been an inspiration. He plays in the same position as me and I ring him up and ask him for a lot of advice about stuff.

"We work together and I am really happy with how his season has gone and I reckon he will be happy about mine.

"He has done really well to be player of the year at Bristol in his first season and he has had a few injury problems but he has gone on to do well again this season."
