Bradford City Post Match Thoughts

Wave upon wave after the second goal. What a performance they didn't know what had hit em. My only grumble we should have had more goals but hey I wont be greedy. Well done lads. MOM for me was Towell. He was all over the pitch like a little terrier. They really had no answer to us in the second half. On this showing could we dare to believe we may go up?

Its now imperative we get cover for central midfield because Vaulks and Towell ran the show today. If they get knacked so will we be.

Absolutely superb. Massive credit to Warne for how fit the team looked on Saturday and tonight. Every player giving it everything, closing down the opposition, hunting in packs etc right up until the final whistle. Dare we say that fitness-nut Warne's methods are paying dividends? Bradford and Pompey looked absolutely shattered.

The fears about midfield looked groundless tonight. We looked totally dominant in the middle of the park.

Warne has also used his subs superbly in our last two matches. Every sub had an impact.

Fast tempo to the start to the game and initially I though Bratfud were a tad quicker to the first ball. We settled down and eventually began to take the game to them. Smith should have scored at ease but headed straight at the keeper but he's a little rusty so hopefully that will improve.

Thought Towell and Vaulkes dominated the midfield and Towell's energy was awesome. Vaulkes has probably heard about the rumours in the press about him so as expected raised his game 20%. Goal from Smith seemed to calm the nerves all round. Half time and happy.

Second half we dominated it more than the Pompey game. Wave after wave of attacks and ALL the players were up for it, no letting Bartfud off the battering they got. Solid tackles, hunting in packs never let them get going in any dept. Great unity throughout the side tonight.

Second goal and game over but we were relentless in still wanting to score more. Our defence was immense and Emmanual deservedly got the MOTM but my choice was Towell for his relentless energy, tackles and all round performance.

Happy to go home having seen a well entertaining game.

Message to Tony Stewart. Fix Paul Warne up quick before HE'S poached by another Chairman. Rolling contracts aren't as good as a two/three year one.
