| 1-1 draw against Dagenham, good result, especially as we equalized in the last minute thanks to Ian Sharps!

| Quote: Ajw71 "Whats the verdict on the game today then guys?'"
Very frustrating from our point of view, after the first five minutes we totally dominated the play in the first half, hit the woodwork a couple of times and missed a couple of decent chances.
Again I'd say we were the better team in the second half, though our final ball wasn't there and we didn't create too many good chances. As the game went on I was half expecting Shrewsbury to nick one late on but I don't really recall you having any clearcut effort on goal and I think you were happy to take a point, both sides should (IMO) have had penalties too.
Personally I think we'll come to regret not winning today, for me it was the first really important "promotion" game of the season, we played some good fluid stuff at times, but it is alarming that we haven't scored in 3 of the last 4 games, notwithstanding the fact we haven't conceded a goal in any of them.
Shrews' looked well organised and obviously are dangerous up front but, today at least, didn't seem to have too much of a supply line - how much of that was down to the way we played I don't know, I thought your right back (Moss?) was superb, his timing in the challenge when up against Daley was first class.

| Yeah I listened on the radio. Got a similar impression to what you gave me. Bradford had more chances but we sporadically threatened. Im happy with the point really considering our away form is shocking.
Hope we can pull in some new faces, apparently we bid for Liam Hatch but we need someone with pace really. That jamie ward was on our radar apparently but we wont be able to afford him i doubt.

I think Barnsley have put in a bid for Ward. A few of our fans in dreamland reckon we should be after him! I think his sights are set alot higher than that.

It will be interesting to see who we do go after, if what I've been told about Thorne's back (it's totally screwed) is true then he will only be able to play a bit part for the rest of the season at best, and we do need someone else to knock the goals in because, for all his recent improvement, Conlon isn't going to score enough to compliment what Boulding does.
There are strong rumours that we are in for Andy Bishop but I can't see that either, I'm sure he could do better than League 2 and won't come cheap anyway.

Barnsley bid £400K for Ward, but couldn't agree personal terms so the deal is off. Can't see him going to Bradford if that's the case.

Never even a possibilty. Just our deluded fans that think we should be in the bidding.

The Bishop rumours are a bit more feasible, but I still can't quite see it. Nobody seems to have a clue if his contract expires in the summer or not. But we do need a striker in the Bishop/Ward mould IMO (i.e. a nuisance with a bit of pace!) but finding an affordable one is a tricky business.

We may have to do what Chesterfield and Bury did and actually have a look at a lower division and find someone with potential who may be available for cheap. The problem with this is that the scouting needs to be good and which would take longer than we have in the Januray window. perhaps we'd be best looking for a loan stiker from a championship club until the end of the season.

In fairness, Bradford is a major sprawling metropolis within an important Conurbation and are competing against tiny old mill towns like Bury and Rochdale. They should be by and large well above most other crowds in League 2
