    I’m not really interested in what he does in training, tbh. I’m just sick of watching him take awful corners and free kicks for the past two seasons. I cannot believe we don’t have anyone capable of better. Our goal tally from set pieces since he joined us is appalling and he’s a big reason why.

    Pretty shocking display from Walker, Oliver and Kavanagh. None of them look bothered

    Kav having zero mare. May as well be sat in the stand. Him and Oliver just not pairing up as any threat

    Sounds like the commentator has the on and off buttons the wrong way around, we can't hear him when he's meant to be live but can hear him when he's talking to his producer.

    Another forgettable one from Kav and after an initial few batterings in the first 5, Oliver looks his usual hopeless self.

    Cook and Young on at HT please. Pointon too for Oduor, why not.

    The goal came down the side where we made the changes from Saturday.

    Instead of giving Wright, Kelly and Byrne a chance to build a better partnership he's completely switched it and now we're back to square one again and have now conceded down that side. Disappointing.

    Oduor has been fine. Take Walker off for Bobby

    We don't really have any other right footed set piece takers in the team for most weeks, Walker took some last season but they weren't great and Halliday is our best defender so tends to stay back for set pieces so he can't take them.

    Let’s not pretend that Kelly isn’t equally crap

    Good shout. Anyone want to get in touch with production somehow. It's shite watching without commentary.

    Head injury for Oliver? Some commentary to explain it would be brilliant.

    Oduor has been OK but goes quiet when the game is against us.

    We've created nothing from open play aside from Halliday's shot. We haven't fixed last seasons problem unfortunately.

    That could be the last time we see Oliver in a Bradford shirt? He didn’t look happy coming off

    Started off brightly and even before the Pen miss we were giving the ball away cheaply but on top.The back three frighten the hell out of me.

    Havent got a scoobie what Byrne was doing at that goal there.
    Baldwin takes too much time on the ball an is a bit sloppy.
    Havent noticed much of Shepard
    Richards is dissapointing. Hasnt done jack shit so far
    Halliday is off the pace. Walker is always waiting for him to make the run
    Smallwood. okay in the tackle, shite at striking the ball. nothing new there
    Odour. Did okay for 20 mins, havent seen him since
    Walker looks like hes playing at 60%
    Oliver shite. oh an hes just come off with an injury so he aint leaving this window
    Kav is not a 10. link up play is dogshit

    I'm not his biggest fan but we've changed the entire back line and we're not giving them a chance to get used to playing together.

    All was well until we missed the pen. Cook is on for Oliver and hopefully Sanderson for Kav.
