Thought the young lads stood up for themselves well, not afraid to get stuck in when the aggro started.

Got to be just a niggle, he was doing plenty of running on and off the field.

One thing that stood out yesterday to me is the team wanted to play, they wanted the game stuck up for each other and dug in which I haven't seen for a fair while in a Bradford performance,
Not the most skillful of performances but very positive, Bring Toovey into the mix and a handful of signings and we are in business.

Thought Peltier, Roche and Campbell were stand out performers.

Add Jon Magrin too. Was very impressed with him. Was impressed with the young lad Matty English from Huddersfield too until Magrin steamrolled him near the end and English wasn't sure what planet he was on for a brief moment.

You're right about the effort though. It's the most grit, effort and determination I've seen a Bradford side put in for ages, and it was essentially a friendly. That was something really missing last season, and perhaps what comes with playing young hungry lads trying to push for a regular spot.

From what I've heard of Tooveys coaching style he will have the lads
Working as hard as possible for him and each other..

We need a bit of direction plus a few more additions and I think we should be very competitive.

I walked out pleasently surprised and upbeat yesterday again that hasn't happened in a while.

I was struck by how the team stuck up for each other during the periods of aggro. In the past our reaction to foul play has been quite limp wristed. Yesterday it was a different matter. The ordeal of the past 3 months seems to have brought them together more.
