I can see them still being in the championship, they're on a mini slump now and only just in the last play-off place.
Bristol City's promotion campaign was smashed to pieces last season almost in sync with the further they got in the league cup (the semis), so extra games, quick turnaround, possible injuries and less preparation can harm a team's chances too.
They really have their work cut out to be promoted and automatic promotion looks likely to be beyond them. Leeds outclassed them home and away, but then there's Bielsa.
