There won’t have been many Bristol City fans that expected us to pick up anything at two tough trips to Millwall and Coventry City over the Christmas and New Year period.
Whilst two points haven’t done much in terms of dragging us away from the wrong end of the table, we did see two committed performances and players who at least appear determined to climb up the table.
Manager Nigel Pearson was undoubtedly under pressure from sections of the fan base after the Boxing Day home defeat to West Bromwich Albion and whilst the 0-0 and 1-1 draw against Millwall and Coventry City respectively won’t have appeased everybody, it has perhaps afforded Pearson some more time in some discontented fan's eyes.
