Russell Slade:
"We were below par in the first half, we didn't have a creative edge.
"We are tight and organised but we need to be doing more, particularly at home, to be creating more opportunities.
"Sometimes in football you cannot always find the level you've set yourself but there's no need for doom and gloom.
"If we had won this game then we would have been two points off second place, you have to be positive about what we're doing.
"We have to back this point up with a win like we did when we drew with Preston and beat Middlesbrough.
"We have to go to Ipswich now and back it up again to keep our momentum going.
"There could possibly be bids for David Marshall in January, we've not had any contact and he's enjoying it at Cardiff City and playing well, which is the most important thing for us right now."
Bristol City manager Steve Cotterill said: "I'm disappointed for the boys not disappointed in them, had that last chance gone in from Ameobi it would have been a catastrophe.
"We did enough to win the game, some of our football was excellent and we had some great efforts on goal.
"For the second game running their goalkeeper was man of the match, we had the same at Brighton in midweek. Marshall was absolutely outstanding.
"We've got a very young team, our boys are doing a lot of learning and the Championship is a tough learning curve for them, but they are coming through it with flying colours.
"We've played like we did here all season, that was not a one-off. Things will turn around for us during the season and it will come back to us.
"You never know what is going to happen in the Championship or the Football League because it is full of honesty."
