It was a really hard decision to leave but it’s been an amazing journey and I’ve met some brilliant people along the way.
Thank you to everyone who made it a great place to work. It’s been a pleasure!

He replaces Tom Barnden, who left the Swans in September to become Head of Sport Science at Southampton. Orme joined Bristol City in July 2016 as Under-23s Sport Scientist and was promoted to Head of Fitness and Conditioning in June 2019.
Prior to that he was a Sport Scientist PhD student at Liverpool.
After being presented with a framed shirt bearing the number seven and his name by Bristol City’s players, Orme wrote on Twitter: “So after just over seven years my time at Bristol City has come to an end.
