Bristol City news

The Robins were formed in 1897 when Bristol South End turned professional and changed its name to Bristol City.

In 1907 they finished runners-up in Football League Division One, which is their highest-ever final position while they were FA Cup runners-up in 1909.

Gary Johnson took over in 2005 and clinched promotion to the Championship a year later, but they missed out on a Premiership place when they lost the play-off final to Hull in May 2008.
