Great result and (by the sounds of it) performance. Was worried we might get a reality check from a solid Bradford side but sounds like it was a breeze in the end.

So good to see opposition fans being complimentary again, makes a change from the "should be beating teams like Barnsley" shit we get from some sides in the Championship.

No idea if we'll continue being this good throughout the season but I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts.

Outclassed in reality, think Barnsley will walk up like Wigan and Blackburn. Plenty of possession but created nothing other than a couple of balls across the box waiting for someone to get on the end of them. Only complaint was that it looked like a penalty on Scannell or a dive, certainly not a corner that the ref gave he was nowhere near the ball, the only thing from an attacking point of view to comment on.

But all in all they were good value, thank fuck other than Sunderland we won't be playing teams that good week after week. Just goes to show the gulf in class between the Championship and League 1.

Slightly shocked to see Ex O Victor Adeboyejo score two in two!

Of all the youngsters we had back when our ex owners fucked us over, he looked like he had something but he was a bit too lightweight. He did score once for us though.

Interested to know how he looks after 2 years with Barnsley?

I love him. He's a natural poacher and he's earned his playing time this season after tearing it up with the development squad last season. Will score quite a few more given the opportunity.

He was lethal in our youth team as well from 2014-2016 - He made his debut at 16 in late 2014 and so very nearly got us a late goal on his debut against Peterborough. Happy to see him doing well.

The only reason you didn't lose 4-0 (or more) like Oxford was Richard O'Donnell. Was he the only Bradford player who touched the ball today?

Before any Bradford fans come in screaming arrogance too I'd just like to say this is not a pop at Bradford in general, just purely based on todays game. 2-0 was a flattering scoreline for them considering the chances we had and they didn't register one shot on target.

If this was played and Oakwell and the scoreline and statistics for the match reversed I'd be fuming.


Don't worry, Cregg. We're still mates.
