The 2010–11 football season is Bristol City's 113th season as a professional football club and fourth consecutive season in the second division. They are competing in the Football League Championship having finished in tenth position the previous season.

League

Bristol City opened their Championship campaign at home to newly promoted Millwall. The game saw goalkeeper David James make his home debut for the Robins. At half time, City were 1–0 down and by the end of the 90 minutes, City lost 3–0. The game saw Darren Carter sent off for Millwall, Damion Stewart sent off for City and Sam Vokes was stretchered off 13 minutes after coming on, to make his debut for City in the 2nd half. Then manager, Steve Coppell said that he may be out of action for a long period of time.
In August City went on to record 2draws and 2loses. No wins were recorded in August under Steve Coppell or Kieth Millen. However City recorded their first win of the season away on 11 September 2010, to Scunthorpe United in a 0–2 result with Albert Adomah and David Clarkson scoring the goals. City hit bottom of the Championship table on 2 October 2010 after losing 0–3 at home to Norwich. This is the first time they have been bottom since joining the Championship. City won their first game at home to Reading on 19 October 2010. This sparked an unbeaten run of five games, drawing against QPR and Preston and beating Swansea and Middelsbrough. Up to 3 December 2010, City have lost one game in 8, losing to Leeds United at Elland Road 3–2 on 13 November 2010.

League Cup

City were drawn against League Two side Southend United away at Roots Hall. City began the game well with a goal inside the 2nd minutes, from left back Jamie McAllister. Southend drew level with a soft penalty from striker Matt Paterson on the 31st minute. City took the lead again in the second half 8 minutes from time with a well taken goal from Irish international Ivan Sproule. City again couldn't hold the lead and with 2 minutes left, Barry Corr sent the game into extra-time. Southend took the lead on the 104th minute. This goal is what put City out of the League Cup in the first round. This was manager Steve Coppell's second defeat as City manager and also his last game in charge of the club

F.A Cup

City played League 1 side Sheffield Wednesday, on 8 January 2011 at Ashton Gate losing 0–3.

Kits

City signed what is believed to be a four year deal with Adidas. City have used a simple template for the home kit. It consists of the traditional red top, white shorts and red socks. The away kit uses the same template as the home kit, but with shirt and short colours reversed. The top is white with red shorts and white socks. This can be mixed with the home kit if any changes are needed. The third kit is again the same template and is all black.

Events

On 17 July, City set a brand new club record beating Swedish fourth division side, Vallens IF 11–1 in a pre-season friendly. The game saw a hat-trick by John Akinde, braces from Ivan Sproule and David Clarkson and other goals from Marlon Jackson, Albert Adomah, Jamal Campbell-Ryce and trialist John O'Flynn. England goalkeeper, David James signed a one year contract deal on 30 July 2010, surprising the footballing world. City's Championship campaign got off to a dreadful start on 6 July 2010 after losing 0–3 at home to newly promoted Millwall.

On 12 August 2010, Steve Coppell resigned as manager with immediate effect. Assistant manager, Keith Millen, was placed in charge on a three year deal. Coppell said he didn't feel committed to doing the job.^[1]

City recorded their first win of the season away, on 11 September 2010 to Scunthorpe United in a 0–2 result with Albert Adomah and David Clarkson scoring the goals.

On 9 March 2011 Chairman, Steve Lansdown announced he will be stepping down as chairman at the start of the 2011–12 season allowing CEO, Colin Sexstone to take over as chairman
