Wimbledon v Bradford CityIt was probably not meant to be, but Alex Gilliead's press conference to preview Bradford City's League Two trip to Wimbledon doubled as a warning to the club's hierarchy.
It might only be up the road, but AFC Wimbledon's stadium is a long way removed from the ground which hosted to Wimbledon FC. The Crazy Gang's golden era came at a time when direct football was all the rage in England. Nowadays, everything is a bit more refined, the X-rated “reducers” Vinnie Jones and co used to put in firmly outlawed, and coaches everywhere much keener on having the ball played on the grass, not air traffic control monitors.
“The old gaffer wanted us to pass the ball out from the back and sometimes we'd get stuck in between should we play out or go long but that was us on the pitch. “With Kev there was not as much possession but we were in their faces, getting high and getting shots and crosses in. At home especially that's what we need to do with the fans.” Not that Gilliead wants Bradford to go all old-school Wimbledon either.
