Got to say, superb performance in the end showing great guts and character.
My heart sunk when they went 2-1 up but what a show of pure bottle after that by our players.
I salute them but also want to recognise SL’s influence on this team.
We couldn’t have pulled off a result like this last season, but look what he’s made us capable of now as shown in other away games already before this.
I don't think I've ever seen a team play so badly and then win 4 2. Addai pumped long for 80 minute and didn't find a Crawley player once.
Then we go behind, he passes short and half a minute we are level. We seem to play for a (jammy) draw get a bit lucky and then a penalty. Was convinced orsi would miss, but I underestimated him. Final goal, well taken and deserved by lolos. football, bloody hell
Brilliant result. Away form has been better this season and we look like we can pick up these wins away from home now and again now. Bradford must absolutely hate us, they have a terrible record against us recently. They were raging after a 0-0 last season, they'll be fuming at this. Big stadium, big budget, but still lose to little old Crawley. A satisfying result.
We go 2-1 down and Filipe Morais the Bradford commentator states that there will be plenty more goals in this game and Bradford should do well. Still they were very complementary about Crawleys style of play. Fool sorry for Corey who made the penalty save but could not stop it spinning into the goal. He also made some great saves.
Wow, what a weird match! Thought we deserved our lead at half time - our defence kept them at bay mostly and Corey made a couple of decent saves, but other than that, it was fairly comfortable.
Second half, Bradford had obviously had the hairdryer treatment at half time and we were struggling to keep them out. Inevitably, they drew level and then had the pen. Corey nearly stopped it, but it bobbled over the line. I thought the floodgates may open, but Bradford let us back into it - when we attack we’re really good.
Drawing level, I thought a point away from home would be a great result, but we kept going and to score 2 more was superb. To see their fans leaving after the third goal was great, but the ground emptied after the 4th (though to be fair, it was deep into added time).
What a fantastic result. Certainly one I didn’t expect half way through the second half. Bradford, with their level of attendances shouldn’t be being beaten by the likes of Crawley. Goes to show how well SL has got us playing.
It's entertaining reading. Some quite complimentary about us "a delight to watch". Maybe we'll get a few members of the Yorkshire exile club... Enough for a taxi to the next game
