Championship pundit and former Swindon Town striker Sam Parkin believes Bristol City's youth policy and smart recruitment could lead to a possible play-off challenge this season.
City climbed to fourth in the table following Saturday’s impressive 3-2 triumph over Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park, with a scoreline that very much flattered the hosts such was the Robins’ dominance.
It extended City’s unbeaten run to eight games in all competitions and even their two defeats this season - against Hull City on opening day and Sunderland - have been close matches in which they very nearly could have got something from them.
