, for whom Bula was an academy coach before managing Gibraltar. Another mid-table finish followed, however, squad changes over the summer left them struggling in the bottom of the table for the first half of the 2016-17 season leaving question marks over Albert Parody's future at the club.

However, after 4 games and 4 defeats without any goals scored, it was reported that Bula had parted ways with the club on 27 October.
