After 45 games and a challenging season which has tested patience, administered glimpses of optimism but also cast doubt over more than just the man in the dugout, Bristol City travel to Huddersfield Town for their final match of 2021/22.
It’s been an underwhelming season in terms of league position, with the Robins guaranteed 17th, and a suitably underwhelming conclusion takes place with their opponents having secured a play-off berth, albeit still able to claim third place from Nottingham Forest.
However, even if City’s lower mid-table fate has long been confirmed, they’re ending on a high with five matches unbeaten and Nigel Pearson refusing to experiment or toy with his line-up and formula, even with a mind on next season.
