Official Match Thread Bradford City vs Southend United

Fantaatic result and a 2 goal debut to boot

Glad to know we have company in listening to Theo again and again. Tried logging in on a different browser, that didn't work either.

So if I had been down in Swanage, like I was last weekend and will be next weekend, I would probably still have heard Kelmans goal over and over again. Not a bad thing, but I would have preferred to have heard Humphrys' two goals.

 

[rayleigh dan]

Wow, I was hoping for an improved performance and perhaps a win but I didn't see 4-0 coming!

Well done CP and the lads, especially Humphrys, what a debut

 

[borientater]

Well, my six-match holy grail came in.

Happy days.

Time for a game of Roots To The 92 inie-meanie-mynie-mo

Banana bread beer , that’s just not right

Well done boys, great win. Shame Ifollow radio went dead in second half however!

Not here in France it didn't.

How did Hart look? An improvement on Hendre?

Yes.But anybody is an improvement on Hendrie.

 

[borientater]

Really ... Hendrie didn’t even play and still he gets stick

Just been talking with my mate in Oldham who gave me the inside track on humphys and I think the club have done really well getting him. He had offers from Bristol rovers and Shrewsbury. He fell out with the boss at scunthorpe for wanting to come off when he felt his hamstring. He was completely sold by working for Powell and it sounds like Powell believes he is better than this level and expects him to get a move before long.

Hopefully not for a while yet - I expect Fulham have secured a good sell on clause.

 

[mattitouk]

Agreed, hence the contact length.

Would be harsh to overly criticise the lad on his debut, especially after a win like that. However, he looked VERY nervous to me. He really struggled in the first half, but did set up Mantom for his goal. Definitely got better as the game went on, pretty decent second half.

Smug git.

I disagree with the thoughts that this is a defensive set up. Some of our best attacking football this season has come with the use of wing backs. Only reservations, I wish we had someone better than Hyam and I am not entirely convinced Elvis is comfortable as a wing back.

You will be proved wrong

 

[Brian Meyers]

Jack Payne's shot is blocked, away for a corner........ Payne takes the corner, cleared by White.

Over rated

Footballs easy. ?‍

 

[The Big Dady]

Had to check again what the final score was, just in case I was dreaming.

Lol, apparently we had 7 shots in target compared to Bradford's 0 in the first half. 3 on target of which we scored two! I took offence to your overly positive (as I saw it) post last week OBD! I hope you continue proving me wrong!

Positivity and vision. The key to success. Love it! LESSSSSSSS DO THE LUTON NEXT WEEK N ALL.

This is obvously Bradford playing poorly rather than us playing well, we are still going down, it's only papering over the cracks, Powell out............. said some on here later today.

You obviously don’t want us to win strange

Whoosh, it was not @Up the Shrimpers he is saying others will.

I'm happy to take back what I said about the formation. Will be interesting to see whether he sticks with that at home
