'Bristol City are a tight-knit group'published at 19:13 13 April

Well here we are with just four games to go sat in the play-off zone knowing that participation is in our own hands and not down to relying on the failings of others.
City's play off challenge has been built upon an impressive run of home results since Christmas - nine wins from 11.
Away form remains patchy and the opening 25 minutes against QPR proved to be a case in point.
The home side, with nothing to play for, swarmed all over City and maybe deserved more than a single goal to show for their efforts.
City drew level, very much against the run of play, with a goal crafted by Knight and Bird with the coolest of finishes from Earthy.
Having watched City for over 55 years I can honestly say this has not felt like previous promotion challenging campaigns.
We have got into a position which could bring top-flight football back to Bristol for the first time in 45 years by playing football very much in the modern style which is Liam Manning to a tee - structure, process, patience.
"Mothering the ball" was a phrase used by former manager Gary Johnson when describing the playing ethos during the last season (2007-08) we came this close to reaching the promised land.
We are where we are for a number of reasons. Firstly, take away the top four in the division and with just four games remaining there are five clubs battling for two play-off spots.
Sixth is likely to be secured with the lowest points total ever since three for a win was introduced.
Secondly, Manning has, over the past couple of months, seemed to allow the players to express themselves a little more. Finally, the players themselves are a tight knit group and no club in the Championship has fielded fewer in pursuit of success.
