Midfielder James re-joined City in August 2026 for a third spell at Twerton Park. After coming up through the youth ranks at Ashton Gate he had a brief loan spell with Chippenham Town in October 2017 before heading to the Romans two months later. He went on to spend 18 months with City, making over 50 appearances – scoring once, although this was named the 2018/19 goal of the season – before returning to the Robins, where he signed a four-year contract. He then had loan spells with Forest Green Rovers, Grimsby Town and, briefly, Gillingham. In the summer of 2022 he looked set to join Milton Keynes Dons but the move fell through following a change of management at the club. His second spell with City was a season long loan in September that season. He was released by the Robins at the end of that season and he joined Weston Super Mare in August 2023. He moved on to Southend United in December that year, where he spent two and half seasons.
