'Bristol City are the surprise package'

- Published

Bristol City last finished in the play-off places in the Championship in 2007-08
Bristol City have conceded goals in the last minute for years when we've lost games. Even this year against Sheffield United we conceded two somehow at home, but this is maybe our chance. This might be it.
The win over West Brom has pushed us six points ahead of them, seven points ahead of Watford. We're doing great.
It's been six years since we were even close to this, 2007-08 since we got into the play-offs, it's well overdue. I am so delighted for this fanbase to enjoy this moment because we didn't really expect it.
We've gone under the radar, we're the surprise package, we've come up on the rails, no one expected us to be fifth or sixth in the league, but we are and we've got a massive chance.
We've always been there or thereabouts in the last few years but never quite this high up. Six years ago (when Bristol City finished 11th) we didn't quite make it and it's been a season after season almost of regret, and the season just fizzling out without anything of any commitment from the fans to look forward to.
We've got five games - QPR Saturday, Luton away, Leeds, Sunderland, Preston to finish. The fans are going to go nuts.
