Gonzalo Melero the difference as Bradford City beat Wycombe Wanderers
Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Gonzalo Melero. 1‑0 against Wycombe Wanderers, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Stephen Humphrys makes it 200
200 times in these colours, in all weathers and under four or five different managers. That kind of service is quietly disappearing from the game.

Bruno Piñatares signs on for more
“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Bruno Piñatares and Bradford City agree another 1 years.

Gonzalo Melero in the eights
A performance of 8.19 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

A falling-out at Bradford City
Ibou Touray and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
Match31 Oct 2026
Two points walk out of the ground
Level with 90 minutes on the clock, after an afternoon Bradford City had all but put away. Stockport County will call it a point earned; the home dressing room will call it two given away, and both of them are right.

A muscle injury sidelines Anthony Evans for 14 days
Nobody makes a documentary about a hamstring and everybody in the game fears one. Bradford City will be careful with the return date, because the second one is always worse than the first.

Bradford City and Max Watters are talking past each other
“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.

The afternoon belonged to Max Watters
A mark of 7.70, and nobody in the ground would argue with it. He was involved in everything that mattered and most of what did not.
In brief
