Re: Bradford 1st round carabao cup.
Can’t disagree with Andyd’s summary about our first half tactics (if there were any) and two man ‘strike’ force. We were woeful in attack for a long time; even Longelo had an ineffective match.
But some of the ‘squad’ players did OK. The back four (O’Brien, Hall, Pickles and Quirk) did well against a beefy and physical side. Martin did well in midfield, especially in the second half. Andrews scored a proper centre-forward’s goal.
Two penalties were disappointing, (being kind) but a 105 minute draw, with a less than full strength team, against last season’s L2 play-off contenders was creditable.
