Sedds my MotM today. Had Newtown in his pocket all game. Ogs a close second. Honorable mention for Browne. Nobody was poor. Most enjoyable!

How the frigging hell is Paris Maghoma playing for Norwich in the Championship?? His agent must be a miracle worker :-o

Alan, it just seems to me that too often we apparently only win because our opponents were rubbish. I'd like to see more credit given to us for making them look rubbish.

Not enough use of the word “stymied” on here.

Tomato, pointing out how poorly they prepared isn't making excuses for them. That's on them. I said before the game dropping Nkeng was something I was comfortable with, was sure Bauer was the answer judging but recent games, Northampton in particular, but it seems it worked a treat. I'm more than convinced that our performance and result were based on us limiting them in their approach rather than the Bantems being stymied by other reasons.

Their manager said he doesn't think the delay was a problem and to say otherwise would be making excuses.

Why are there posters who have to find an excuse for our opponents whenever we win?

6M$M can only assume your 20.19 post is intended as satire, because if you are seriously suggesting that the club made the snap decision to not display the ko delay on a digital board outside the ground (within the very short time between ko delay being confirmed and 3pm), with the explicit intention of capturing fans for 30 minutes' extra revenue, then you sir are unhinged.

Hilton Cobham is usually the preferred location for a visiting team, but might have the Rugger at Twickers scarpered that plan?

Definitely a massive error by Bradford in terms of travel - both in terms of where they stayed (why so far across London) and not considering the likely traffic conditions from two events which were well known in advance. We certainly played well today and might well have won anyway but turning up late and not having the chance to prepare properly will certainly have impaired their performance - they seemed off the pace right from the start.

Their approach at corners was strange, if a short corner really looks likely then you need 2 players out, they only put one so Tilley had a free pass into the penalty area. Also, I know JJ wouldn't do it, but if you are 2-0 down leave a couple of players up when defending corners. Apart from anything else it may well screw up corner routines as key players have to stay back to mark. One team left 3 up a few weeks ago and we looked totally perplexed about what to do.

Now that Reeves is out of the side the rest of the midfieders are making their own decisions and playing with freedom.

Well worked corner routine for the Stevens goal. Makes a change from floating the ball into the keeper hands or at the head of the oppositions tallest player.

If true, that would make it very difficult for their players to get in the zone and prepare properly

How fragile must you be if walking/running a few hundred yards could cause you to lose a football match to a team 10 places below you?! Nah, not buying it. We were superb today and we’d have beaten then whatever time they arrived.

Alexander said after the match that three basic errors cost them,funnily enough the Reading manager did the same

That obviously affected them mentally and physically because I refuse to believe they are as shit as they were today. It's just not possible.

Apparently they walked through from the Corner Pin. I was selling programs in the way end and the coach arrived a few minutes after the players. Alexander had a face like thunder.

Please tell me that’s not true about their players having to run to the ground.

Song for the Olympic curling [Link]

Heard that their players got off their bus to run to the ground, not sure how far that run was but it wouldn't have helped them nonetheless.

$6m - re your moral. Yes, too much manhandling in the game. Make 'em play in straight jackets. Prob solved.

Hippolyte seemed to have his mojo back today and looked a lot happier generally. Games seemed to pass him by or he lacked energy in recent games but today he was everywhere and his bit of quick thinking and the physical ability to throw the ball that far was a game-changer. Smith played a lot better than he has for quite some time and with Maycock continuing his rich vein of form our midfield looks strong. There is no way Reeves will get back in the side unless we have an injury crisis. If he does, play him further forward like we did away to Grimsby last season so that he can't slow the game down and kill any momentum. Bauer still worries me but Bradford were too poor to exploit him.

It would have been nice if the large screen outside the main entrance to the West Stand warned people of the delayed kick off. Maybe more would have gone in the club shop and spent money there, although maybe the club wanted people "trapped" inside the ground with time to kill so they could spend money on over-priced food and drink. That extra 30 minutes before the game seemed to drag on for ever. Glad we punished Bradford for their tardiness. I hope they get fined for it. I feel sorry for any of their supporters who pre-booked trains at specific times (although many seemed to go when our 3rd goal went in, so maybe they were OK after all).

Bradford put on the worst display by an away side this season. They are obviously better than the abject display we saw from them today, otherwise they would not be in the play offs heading into March. Mullen is a total has-been. Wrexham got shot of him at the right time. He was useless from Wigan earlier on in the season. It was only when Wigan substituted him that his replacement turned the game on its head. Humphrys got their goal and looked more of a threat when he came on. Neufville was annonymous.
