Another example of a club having ideas above their stations, especially when key players were sold in the summer and not replaced like for like. Sad reality is the Championship is not a level playing field, clubs without parachute payments can only progress with a financial backer.


And they've hired Klopp's old assistant.


Who relegated Borussia Dortmund's 2nd team to the German 4th tier last season

Foreign coaches rarely succeed in Championship Football. For every Karanka there is a Stolbakken, Luzon and Magath.

Bradford securing a comprehensive 2-0 win against Crewe Alexandra to go 7 games unbeaten and level on points with 6th placed Bury. Bradford actually beating bottom of the league opposition is an improvement in itself.

A depleted Bradford side recording a 2-0 away win against Scunthorpe, who won their last 4 home games on the spin prior to Saturday's game. A fantastic team performance overall from 1 to 11.

6 consecutive clean sheets in all competitions, 8 league games undefeated and 9 in all competitions. Still outside the playoffs on goals scored, but the gap to 2nd is reduced to 4pts. Next week is huge as Bradford face leaders Coventry on Tuesday and 3rd place Walsall on Saturday.

Bradford securing a valuable 0-0 draw against high flying, free scoring Coventry.

7 successive shut-outs in all competitions, 9 league games undefeated, 10 in all competitions and in the playoffs for the 1st time this season. Can't complain with that :)

The run of 7 consecutive clean sheets, 9 league games unbeaten and 10 in all competitions has come to an end for Bradford at Bescot Stadium. By all accounts a poor first half but dominated the 2nd half and a penalty turned down for a blatant handball.

Oh well, can't win them all and there is no disgrace in losing to Walsall who are a well drilled side and in the promotion mix. A great opportunity next week to put things right against Chesham in the FA Cup.

Great turnaround for Brighton, mind you going 2-0 down after 5 minutes does give you most of the game to do so. The sending off helped to, Brighton don't know how to lose this season!

Northampton and Brighton were on my betting slip, just about calmed down after both came in. Just need Chelsea to score now
