Bantams Break Losing Streak

It wasn't a victory, but after losing 5 on the bounce a point was welcome. What is more puzzling is how this shower of shite are in the top three. They created the grand total of one chance, and if we would have had a smidgen of luck, all three points could have been ours. Nicky Law looks an excellent addition, from Sheff United on loan, and the back four looked much improved, but still lack pace in my humble opinion. The keeper we have on loan from Blackpool doesn't engineer cardiac arrest among the crowd when he goes to clear the ball either. It's the Mariners of Grimsby Town away next, but I can't attend due to prior commitments, so it's Brentford at home in a fortnight.

Baz Watch; On for full 90 minutes. After Nicky Law, for me, the second best player on the pitch. Our bald carthorse warrior was resplendent in dazzling white boots. Missed absolute sitter, with his gleaming dome, but was unfortunate with two other efforts, one scrambled away and the other deflected wide. Squared up for a scrap with a miscreant Darlington defender, who soon backed off when he realised it was Big Baz. One outrageous piece skill when he controlled a high punt, flicked it over his head swivelled round and laid off a defence splitting pass. Bazaldinho-esque! Even the Darlo fans sang him a song.


Pie Rating; 5/10 Steak and Kidney. Diseased lung consistency. I am no great lover of kidney, and only tried this pie in the interests pie-equality. I was pleasantly surprised, the kidney level wasn't that high, and the gravy made sure this foul offal was not the over powering taste. UK Gold indigestion factor, full of repeats, I was still tasting it the following day at tea time. Over priced. If this pie were a football team it would be Bradford Park Avenue, a relic of bygone days. Better than expected..
