Another brilliant game of football at Valley Parade, entertainment value at it's very best. Really annoyed about the comical defending by Bradford but pleased with the character shown to get back into the match from 2-0 down.

Coventry manager Stephen Pressley with some interesting comments about Bradford playing "Dark age football" and apparently Phil Parkinson said something to him that can't be repeated.

Can't dispute the style of football Bradford played, the long ball stuff rather effective but can be tedious at times and City do lack alternative game plans. Coventry played some quality attacking football that wouldn't look out of place in the Premier League. Then again the amount of blatant fouls Coventry gave they were fortunate to have 11 men on the pitch.

Duke and Tozer aside the quality isn't there like it was last season though. If the ambition of making the play-offs is still there reinforcements are desperately needed.

Brian Laws gets sacked as manager of Scunthorpe United, this is despite them winning 5 of their last 10 games and racking up 17pts in the process. Repeat that process x4 and Scunthorpe would finish on 92pts which should secure automatic promotion.

What a way to end a run of 6 games without a win to beat MK Dons in their own backyard and get back into the playoffs.

Leyton Orient and Wolves appear to be ragging away with the League One automatic promotion places, but the playoffs look far from settled as do the relegation spots.

Still top of League One, although Wolves are gaining momentum and are a point behind.

Whether Orient can maintain this through 2014 is a different matter, Tranmere were in a similar position last season but ended up outside the top 6!

Blackpool FC have had five players sent off in their last two games. What are the chances of them not being able to fulfil a league fixture because their squad is suspended?

It's BRILLIANT too see, their manager is a disgrace and only got employed to keep Tom Ince at the club.

I'm surprised Blackpool didn't sell Tom Ince and Karl Oyston helped himself to an eight figure dividend.
