IT wasn't what Hull City fans had hoped for, or even expected, but still the Tigers have taken another step closer to the Premier League.
It may only have been a small step and not the large stride which many had anticipated, but you can't underestimate the importance of that point.
Sitting in second place and seven points clear of Watford, who only have nine points left to play for, it's still in the hands of the Tigers and all the pressure remains on Watford.
In the grand scheme of things it could prove to be a massive point.
City didn't play well and there's no question they didn't deserve more than the point they gained.
But there again, they didn't deserve to lose either and Bristol City never really looked like they would win the game, but neither did City.
All credit to Bristol City, who came and had a go and did themselves proud when they could have just rolled over after being relegated. The Tigers just expected things to happen for them and you have to gain the respect from the opposition, not just turn up and think you've already earned it.
It is the first time this season I think it has happened, but manager Steve Bruce just got it wrong for me in terms of his selection.
I was surprised Ahmed Fathi didn't start the game, although I understood why Bruce wanted an engine in the middle to drive things.
But the game was crying out for Fathi or Tom Cairney to come on in the second half. Bristol were open from the first minute and wanted to play that sort of game.
The opportunity was there for City to pass the ball between the spaces and work their way through the opposition.
Fathi or Cairney could have helped them do that.
Instead, Bruce switched two strikers for two strikers.
The problem was the strikers were isolated all game.
Switching the players up front wasn't going to change that.
It needed fresh legs and a new creative outlet in midfield.
The positives are it is still in the Tigers' hands and a win from their last two games will make promotion certain.
That said, what the point last night does is pile the pressure on Watford because a defeat for them against Blackburn and anything but a win for Crystal Palace and City are up before kicking another ball, and that can only be welcome news.
