I'm guessing that's the shortest video on Sky's website.

Did we just defend for 89 mins?

Did that header loop over Marosi and backspin out off that mud patch?

No.

We had more possession in the first half but never looked remotely dangerous.

We were awful in the second half but rarely looked troubled.

It was one of those matches where our quick passing simply didn't work. Coppinger had his worst game of the season. Or several previous seasons, come to that. No link up between midfield and attack. No converted pressure. But very rarely felt threatened.

And one moment of quality settled it.

Used to happen a lot to us in the Championship. I felt a bit for Bradford, because they didn't deserve to lose that. But I didn't feel THAT much.

No, it hit the post.

Of all his goals this season, the vast majority are identical. He's always got great ability to keep the ball so low.

Love Andy Butler's air punch at full time.

3 points away from home with a clean sheet in a Yorkshire derby.

Take that every day of the week.

... and when showing highlights this morning they did them "loosely" in Table order but put Posh before us. OK it wasnt a great game but they virtually only showed the goals anyway so we should have been in front of PBoro

Liam Hoden gave both Rowe and Crawford 5/10 which probably tells a story in itself. If both your central midfielders are having an off day then there is not going to be much football being played.

Short journey back home. Week until next game. Home crowd. Long journey for Plymouth. We have to capitalise on all this come Saturday.

This young man has the potential to go all the way, it’s strange that so many of his goals are from similar angles and yet seem indefensible...

Do the opposition not watch his threat, or is he just too strong,fast clinical

He’s excellent receiving the ball with his back to goal and turning his man. Also in the last month or two his decision making has improved no end, he no longer wants to go it alone everytime, now he also looks for a pass. If he stays out of trouble he can be what he wants to be, great move getting him away from Leeds and the potential hangers on involved with gangs

Good players are always dangerous though, even when well marked.
With his strength and pace he almost always needs two players watching him.
He also has the confidence not to worry about missing.
