Sat 27th Sept 2014, Bradford City v Port Vale, pre-match, the match itself.

[Fosse69]

What a difference a few days make, confidence and optimism return. With interesting times over the next few weeks, but one game at a time, starting with a good performance at Valley Parade, is another win in Yorkshire on the cards?

[jacko4]

I'm going for a 1-1 draw, hopefully im wrong and we come back with all 3 points.

[bookworm]

bradford aren't brilliant at home, i've noticed queeny hasn't popped up since yeovil beat 'em, still early days yet,got a bit more hope after saturdays win,

[bar1]

Will be a tough but hopeful we can get something. Hanson out injured which is a bonus given our defending from set pieces. Can see Knott scoring tho!

[beasty77]

We will have to score 2 or 3 to get something from the game..

Are we in the double decker Lego stand again this year?

[Fosse69]

In a nutshell, 6 defeats on the trot, Micky Adams resigns, assistant takes over, a few team changes, dreams of play-offs again.

You are indeed. Allocated the upper tier, of which holds circa 1,000.

We'll probably only bring around 400 or so, as a lot are going Fleetwood the week after, and staying over in Blackers..

Dunna think we'll that many tbh.

[valiant_593]

For me the aim here is to stay unbeaten, get a little run going, hopefully defend well and play on the break with Marshall and Moore. Think we can certainly win this one after Saturday, Bradford far better away from home, I'm going for 2-1 vale, us to knick it at the end. Would be happy with a point though.

[TylerB]

Think we'll obviously start with the same 11 against Bradford. I'd be over the moon with a 0-0 and a clean sheet finally. Williamson and Moore are excellent options to have on the bench with their pace. Away from home it must be mighty tempting to put another midfielder in there though, and if this is the case then I think Slew would play the lone forward role better than Pope, who is also not playing anywhere near the top of his game at the moment for whatever reason.

When do you guys play Chesterfield, will be interesting to see the battle between Kennedy and Morsy?

[Desperate Dan]

Why change the team around?

 

Same 11 for me on Saturday. Dodds usually plays well at Bradford too. ;)
