Cole Skuse is confident supporters will see the real Bristol City in the wake of Tuesday's revitalising 3-1 victory at Leicester. That result came as a surprise even to diehard City fans, many of whom questioned the ability of the manager and team during a winless five-match sequence which saw the Robins plummet to halfway in the Championship. But Academy product Skuse, who marked his return to a central midfield role by scoring one goal and making another, insists the players never doubted their capacity to bounce back from adversity. And he believes victory at the Walkers Stadium will inspire City to show their true colours when they take on Doncaster Rovers at the Keepmoat Stadium today. "I can understand why a few people back at home might have been surprised by the result at Leicester," said Skuse.

Bristol City star Lee Trundle is hoping his recent return to goal-scoring form will earn him a permanent move to Swansea. Out-of-favour at Ashton Gate and desperate to get away, the 33-year-old rejoined the Swans on loan in August. But boss Paulo Sousa declined to take Trundle for the whole season and his current deal is due to expire at the end of December. Trundle knows there is no future for him in Bristol and is determined not to spend the second half of the Championship campaign sitting in the stands.
