Lansdown Right Behind Millen

Bristol City chairman Steve Lansdown says that manager Keith Millen’s job is safe, despite a poor start to the season.

The Robins hit rock bottom at the weekend when they went down 3-0 at home to Norwich City and out of a possible 30 points, City have picked up just six.

City’s home form is terrible, so far they have failed to pick up a single win at Ashton Gate this season, much to the displeasure of fans in all parts of the ground.

But Lansdown says he will not act hastily:“It’s a time to stick together. We haven’t become a bad football club overnight,” he told the Daily Mirror.

“The fans are having a go at Keith and certain players, but if they think there is a lack of commitment they are wrong. We need them to stand by us.

“I’m concerned, but I have seen an improvement in the squad recently and there is no doubt we have the players to do better.

2We now have two weeks to stew on being bottom and we have to use that time to ensure we come back stronger.”
