00:00Bristol City boss Liam Manning has made clear that he is cautiously optimistic ahead of the Robins'
00:07FA Cup third round tie at home to Premier League opponents Wolverhampton Wanderers this weekend.
00:13He looked back to last season's FA Cup in which Bristol City managed to get past Premier League
00:18opponents West Ham United in the third round following a replay and then faced Nottingham
00:23Forest in the fourth round also taking them to a replay and ultimately going out on penalties.
00:30Made clear that the experience gained from those encounters as well as preparation going into this
00:35tie will make Bristol City a worthy opponent of Wolverhampton Wanderers who are just getting
00:40used to life under new manager Vitor Pereira. They have had something of a new manager bounce
00:46but this was brought to an abrupt end following their 2-0 home defeat to Nottingham Forest in the
00:51Premier League on Monday. It promises to be an exciting tie at Ashton Gate for a place in the
00:57fourth round.
