Wouldn't be so sure! People have been saying they will fall away all season but obviously they keep proving people wrong!

very hard to predict results in the last few weeks of the season, I reckon they'll get more than 3 tbh

I firmly expect them to finish in the top four. No reason why they shouldn't.

I think we're more likely to struggle at QPR than they are against Leicester.

Bristol have the toughest run-in out of any of the top four by some distance. That said I don't see anyone else breaking into the current top four - especially not Charlton!
If Bristol do make it into an automatic spot then they will have thoroughly deserved it, no doubt about it but I think they'll finish third (and lets be honest, they'd have been more than happy with that at the start of the season!

Bristol are a bit of an enigma, but recent form suggests that they'll be staying up near the top for a while longer. Coming back the way they did against Colchester and Palace suggests they've got the character required to sustain their push. A bit like Stoke really!  |

Ye i would say that they will fall away a little but still firmly believe they will make the playoffs and its a lottery from there but i fancy Charlton to win the playoffs for some reason with us winning the league and Watford 2nd. Anything for us to go up and west brazil to stay down!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D

As one of the earlier posters says, people have been writing us off since August yet we are still there battling away. We might fall apart but we (hopefully) won't. We have followed eacg defeat with a run of victories which we have done again.
Let people dismiss us and we will carry on with trying to get promoted!
For the record, I cannot see Stoke falling away and I am hoping we go up with you!

Just last week I had a "disturbance in the force" moment - I'm going to stick money on a Stoke/Bristol promotion combo. I think the top 2 by May 4th will surprise everyone - not least the meejah! |

I can't see ANY reason why Bristol should fall away now. I hope we can just concentrate on getting as many points on the board ourselves without banking on other teams blowing up.

Have to give Bristol C credit- still think they'll come third though.
Kind of fancy Hull to make the play offs then who knows- might be a good outside bet.

Exactly, concentrate on our games, fuck the rest. Get more points than any of the others between now and the end of the season and YYYYYYEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS. But then again, if they want to help us out, I won't complain  ;D ;D |

It's just a question of who holds their nerve and who does'nt imo.
The chances are that at least one of the top four at present will choke it,i just pray it is'nt us.

i hope they don't totally fall away, i want them take points off watford and charlton, draw's would be good, and plymouth could get a result

Personally i dont think they will fall away, they have the experience of last season to fall back on, and they seem to have the mental strength to rescue games.

I have a feeling that we may slip up a little bit during the next five games but then finish strong due to the nature of our remaining fixtures. Our next five are tough, and it could be us that slip a little and not Bristol City.
Hopefully I'm wrong though.

Yeah I think this next clutch of games will be a real tester for us,if we are within touching distance after the next lot of away games are out of the way I will be delighted.

Hmm, every theory I've heard all season about why Brizzle won't last's been wrong. Think we'd better stop looking around ourselves so much, it's not a healthy sign imho...

I think Bristol will go up via the playoffs.
They showed agaisnt Palace that they won't give up without a fight and I think that their position in 2nd place at the mo is justified... just as we are with 1st place.
people keep writing Bristol and us off and have to keep eating their words week in week out.
If they do slip up I feel that it would be V us if we meet in the playoff final.
