Bristol City manager Keith Millen is confident that his side will fight off the threat of relegation this season.

City currently sit second from bottom in the Championship table with six points from their opening eight fixtures.

However, after seeing his side fight back from a goal down to claim a point against Hull City courtesy of a strike from Brett Pitman yesterday, Millen claimed that survival is possible.

"We could easily have folded after Hull scored and the fact that we stormed back convinces me we shall be all right this season," the boss said after the match.

"Brett's goal has lifted some pressure off us."

Robert Koren had initially put visiting Hull in front at Ashton Gate.
