That's a Good Pointy Cashy and that can be the difference between success and non success the ability to grind out results

He needs to remember we pay our cash to watch the team so everybody has a right to complain about a bad performance.

Yeah I saw that I thought at first he had dropped his brew down his pants the way he was jiggling about or maybe it was just pure shock

He does nothing for 10 games and then does that, typical.

Looking forward to Burton on Tuesday.

Like you, I was in the section by the dugout in the second half. Sticking two fingers up to the home fans was out of order IMHO, however, I forgive him. But isn't John Miles the most frustrating player Accrington Stanley possess. Does nothing and most fans in the block next to the dugout were calling for him to be subbed and then he pops up with 2 goals. I agree with other posters though, MOTM should have gone to one of the defenders, both Kempo and Mr suntan were outstanding, Tom Lees had a solid game and Dean Winnard was an excellent attacking back player. How Clarke (6) and Rehman (5) of Bradford managed not to get booked is beyond me, they looked like they were trying to tap up Symesy and Grant with the way they were hugging them in the penalty areas. Referee was totally blind to that and how the liner on the Whinney Hill terrace could give offside when a player is quite clearly 2 to 3 yards on side is beyond me. Totally and utterly clueless, the lot of them. Great to see the side get back to winning ways. Looking forward to Tuesday and Saturday now. Mucky weekend in Torquay here we come.

Doesnt look good for Turner tho , no doubt he will be off at the end of the season anyway with a number of teams after him

exactly what our crew were saying, plus they will get sod all fer him as no-one has seen him play. this is brainless to me.

John Colman said on the interview on radio lancs , that he is signing up a new defender on Monday and a none-defender later in the week .( His words not mine ) ???

on bradford city page 1,878 away fans .. hats off to them all for the cash

[MCR ADIM]

Turner is a great player was a breath of fresh air last season just like grant and symes have been this season, he gives us that option of wing play, picks up the ball and runs down the wing with it, skipping past defenders and good at crossing aswell, a loss if he goes,

[MartynBiddulph]

Chris was very unlucky to get released by Burnley when he did IMO. He could definitely be the difference between Stanley getting the play-offs and not doing so this season.

At that rate that puts home fans down as 1518 down 400 from the morecombe home game now i know that the away end and half the whinney hill hold's 1300 +100ish in the other half for away fans and that 100 seats was made available in the main stand next to the changing rooms for bcfc fans today,that makes 1500 which sounds a bout right to me not the 1878 they've reported.But i might be wrong

[Pendle Red]

Chris along with Billy Kee still have the potential to be key figures in the run in of games from now till the end of the season, they are young and have a natural ability to influence games, please the crowd and change the pattern and shape of the side as well as games.

But to be able to do that they have to be given a chance

[new red]

Couldnt get to the game today but a great result. Sounds like Bradford werent up for it but grateful for the three points. Did Coleman actually put two fingers up to the fans? If so thats unforgivable. People pay good money and have a right to air their opinion. Glad that changes were made from previous two games but someone might need to explain to Coleman what a squad is and not play his favourites week in week out when they obviously have tired legs. Thats my opinion.

[Pendle Red]

I know as a coach with a squad of twenty players we can only field eleven but everyone get's their chance if they don't how do you know what they can do?

[new red]

Pretty sure that turner got a two year contract along with edwards and ryan so dont think he will be moving on. If hes fit he surely deserves a place in the team if last seasons performance was anything to go by.

Looked a bit better balance with Luke Joyce returning to the starting line up, I would still like to see more use from the wings first half we were predictable high ball down down the middle that the two central defenders of Bradford lapped up.

Second half started keeping it down and playing it more around the pitch which eventually opened open the game.

Well done Milesy for his goals and the Reds for a much more rounded display

After last years subbing of Ryan - and what went after - there was never any chance of a sub today!!

To see more use of the wings, surely there has to be some use of the wings
