Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I whakangaromia te kākahu whakamutunga o Steve Cotterill i te kapu, i whakairihia ki te waipiro i ringihia ki runga i a ia e ana kaitakaro harikoa. Engari kaore rawa ia i aro. "Ka taea e rātou te tuku waipiro ki ahau i ngā rā katoa o te wiki mēnā ka wikitōria mātou", te kata a te kaiwhakahaere o Bristol City. I muri i nga mea katoa, koinei te wa o te taone nui. Kei te haere rātou ki te taitara o te Rōpū Kotahi, ā, me te mea kei roto kē i te rūnanga tētahi mea hiriwa ataahua, kua hoki mai ngā wā pai ki Ashton Gate. E ahuareka ana a Steve Cotterill rāua ko Kieran Agard i muri i te wikitoria i te tohu, ā, ka taea e City te wikitoria i te taitara takirua. Ko te Kapene Wade Elliot (pokapū) e hiki ana i te Johnstone's Paint Trophy i te wa e whakanui ana ona hoa kapa o Bristol City. Ka whakawhiwhia e Mark Little (2) te whāinga tuarua i muri i te whāinga a te mangai o te whainga i waiho ai ia hei whaainga maamaa hei whaainga. Ka whakanui te kaitautoko i mua i ngā kaiwhaiwhai o Bristol City i muri i tana whakapiri i te ārahi o tana kapa. He mea tino māmā tēnei i te whiringa toa o Wembley. I whakaarahia e rātau te Johnstone's Paint Trophy i mua i te 40,000 o ngā tāngata o Bristol i muri i ngā whāinga a Aden Flint rāua ko Mark Little i kite i te wero a Walsall. Engari he tohu noa tenei mo nga mea e haere mai ana. I te mea e 10 ngā tohu te nui atu i to rātau hoa whakataetae tata rawa, ko Preston North End, ka taea e City te whakaara i tētahi tohu i te wā e tūtaki ai rātau ki a Walsall, i te kēmu whakamutunga o te tau i te 3 o Mei. Ka rite ki te nuinga o nga wa i roto i tenei pakanga, i whakahaerehia e ratou mai i te timatanga ki te mutunga, e whakaatu ana i te tino maia i mua i te whaainga i roto i te kēmu o nga waahi torutoru. Inaianei ka tae mai te mahi ki te whakawhiti i te raina mutunga me te whakaoti i te takirua engari ka pau te paheketanga o nga waahanga whakamiharo ki te whakakore i a raatau ki te hokinga mai ki te Championship i muri i nga tau e rua kua pahemo. "Ko te tūmanako ka taea e tēnei te akiaki i a mātou ki te whakaoti i te tau", te kī a Cotterill, nāna hoki i whai hua i Wembley i te whakamutunga o te FA Trophy 1998 me te karapu o te taone o Cheltenham Town. <unk>Ko te mea kotahi i wheako ai rātau i tēnei rā, ko te 30-40 meneti o te harikoa, ā, he mea tino hira ki te ite i tērā i te tīmatanga o tō mahi. <unk>Kei a mātau te whakaaro i tēnei wā <unk>e hiahia ana mātau ki te wikitōria i te riiki.' Ko Aden Flint...
I ārahi a Aden Flint i a Bristol City i Wembley i muri i te 15 meneti me te upoko nui i te pou tawhiti. I whakapirihia e Mark Little te ārahi i a ia e kopere ana i te pōro ki te kupenga me ngā whakaari anō e whakaatu ana i te pā ki tōna ringa. Ko te taha o Steve Cotterill i wikitoria i ngā meneti e 90 me te whakaara i te Johnstone's Paint Trophy. I tēnei wā ka arotahi a City ki te wikitoria i te whakatairanga ki te Championship.
