Thompson is suspended for tomorrow's visit of Bradford to the Den after his 5th booking this season against Donny midweek, to deepen our midfield problems. Williams has missed the last two games with the back injury he suffered at Blackpool, so Harris will give him every possible chance to make it with a late decision on his fitness.
The clash with Bradford is the last game to fall within Saville’s 28-day emergency loan deal from Wolves and we've apparently reached an agreement with them to extend it which is yet to be confirmed. Looking like Powell with partner Saville in the middle of the park as we're down to the bare bones there!
Oh how I'd love to bag Saville on a perm deal even though he's too similar a player to Jimmy and we can't really expect him to drop a division and a drop in wages as well but we'll see as ever.
We're looking for our fifth win in a row at home and if other results go our way this weekend it could put us up to fourth in the table, which'll be our highest position this season. It's the first meeting between us since they battered us 4-0 up at Valley Parade in the FA Cup third round tie last January when we had Beevers sent off.
Rumour had it last season that the F.A. officially requested to UEFA for Bradford to be loaned Ronaldo & Messi for the game to deny us a tasty looking 4th round tie at Chelsea!!
However, the request was turned down as UEFA knew that Hollowhead was useless so the Bantams wouldn't need them.
For them our summer target Hanson is expecting a nice den welcome which he'll surely get along with his shammer fans Bantam team mates (four or five apparently), he's hoping they take the abuse instead of him - going to be a close thing I reckon!!
Bradford extended the loan deals of Preston’s Kyel Reid and West Ham’s Reece Burke this week, but former Liverpool goalkeeper Brad Jones left the club last Tuesday after making just three appearances since signing in August. Billy Clarke, Bradford’s top scorer last season with 14 goals, signed a new deal this week that will take him up to 2018. Clarke and midfielder Josh Morris could both return this weekend.
Bradford didn't start the season that well like ourselves with just 10 points in 10 games, but have picked up 10 points in their last 4 games lifting them to 14th in the table.
