Get in,like someone else said,that feels like a win,well done the boys,you could have easily dropped your heads,like we so often did last season after Tomlin's silly stint but you did'nt,just hope he is alright mentally and smart enough to apologise to his team mates and would be nice if he did similar to the fans and he can brush himself off and we all move on,all in all a great start and we hopefully will improve even more as the games go on.
I loved that too, proper true grit stuff. Don't want that every week but at least we have some fight.
Well our performance has really riled the Bradford fans up, comments such as, ‘time wasting from minute one’, ‘anti-football tactics’, you know you’ve done a good job when you get under the oppositions skin.

One thing I think yesterday showed is that we need an extra option in midfield. It was a cracking point given the circumstances but when he had 11 players on pitch we couldn't put a pass together and didnt have that body in the middle to get on the ball. Obviously Close will be that player when fit but when that is we will never know.
Other than the long-term trio though, one of whom did come on as a sub, they are all understandable.Molyneux and Griffiths both have impact injuries, Rowe had a minor problem just badly timed before the game. Younger we aren't even sure is injured, he may just have not made the squad.It doesn't look nearly as bad if you discount Close and Taylor, who have long-standing issues affected by last season's rehab nightmare.
