Boss Keith Millen believes Bristol City`s victory over Preston is their most important win of the season. Threatened with being drawn back into the Championship relegation battle following a run of six games without a win, the Robins bounced back in style at Deepdale on Saturday with a 4-0 trouncing of their fellow strugglers. It moved Millen`s men eight points clear of the drop zone and the City manager said: "That was definitely our most important win of the season. "We'd been on a poor run and not scored for five games and had to a play a Preston side that were fighting for their lives. "It was our biggest game of the season and that is exactly how we treated it in the build-up. I asked the players to treat it as a one-off and to be totally focused and positive in their mind-set and their game. "There was big pressure on the game and we coped with it. We're not getting carried away, but this is a very big result for us and it means we are now looking up rather than down."
