During the 1991–92 English football season, Bristol City F.C. competed in the Football League Second Division.

Season summary

In the 1991–92 season, Bristol City made a bright start to the campaign and by 9 November after 17 games, the Robins sat 1 point of the play-off places and looked as though they would challenge for a play-off spot but afterwards, a poor run of form which saw Bristol City win only 1 from their next 18 league matches and as a result slipped to the relegation zone with only Port Vale below them and it seemed the Robins were favourites to go down following a huge collapse of form but an 8 game unbeaten run which include 5 wins, kept them up and the Robins finished in 17th place.
