Yep but in fairness I expect Bradford will say the same.
Gives us optimism for the second half.

Our home grown talent has seamlessly slotted in to this side. All really comfortable on the ball.
That was a well worked corner from Bradford.We weren't expecting it from that height and they blocked our keeper out of the game.Very poor 45 minutes from City at the back.
Both teams poor at the back, I think.
Good attacking game. Winner will be whoever sorts their defence out.
Glad with the weather the game is there, not here. Pitch allowing a good game

Wow, good half but disapointed to concede just before half time. We've youth on our side, nick another early second half, get Law on to try and retain a bit of possession and we could still win this. Josh Randall is dynamite!
And Joel Key.

Really good exciting game and great performance from City going forward but if we're this bad defencively we won't be in the mix come May.

We are conceding too many goals this season, it's not just down to the defenders, at times there is a massive gap between our back line and midfield, opponents often seem to find a lot of space in front of our defenders.

We need more from Collins defensively, he's playing as our deepest midfielder, he's still too weak when it really matters.

To be fair to our defence, we made two bad mistakes and got punished for both. Their defending has been a lot worse and we could have had five with better finishing.

Certainly the best first half we've had recently, hope we can step it up again second half.
