 to match up here, promotion favourites Bradford against Don Casta, and a packed house as well at the University of Bradford Stadium, as Mark Hughes captures the imagination of supporters with some impressive summer signings, the likes of Romney Critchlow, Richie Smallwoods, Amber Day and Oliver, all looking like excellent signings. And with Don Casta adding Adam Plates and George Miller and Lee Tomlin to their ranks, expectations certainly high for both. Don Casta, looks to get forward on this right-hand side, that's a late challenge, while the referee has a decision to make here. Davy is the one who has been found here by Ravenhill, it's just the yellow cards, Noyl here made the run, and a feet up from Liam Ravenhill, right in front of the assistant referee, not too far away either. Shifting play, and looking to be the one who can grab control of that midfield area. Chance here for Bradford to attack, and Day and Oliver testing Jonathan Mitchell, 27 goals and a pass two seasons in lead one for the Day and Oliver, brilliant signing here for Bradford, answering his chances from this tight angle, top saved by Jonathan Mitchell in the end, looking for the foul on the edge of the penalty area, a whistle from the referee, Jonathan Mitchell able to gather up, watching this one back as it's floated in by the new captain Richie Smallwards, there was a tangle on the edge of the area, A from the Day and Oliver marches forward, touching back into the box, promising run very nearly able to pick out Jamie Walkup. I've got a corner here, Bradford, deep to the back of the box, bouncing ahead of though doesn't really cause too much in the way of trouble, one space here for Platts at the far post, clearance forward by Mitchell, the route one approach here for Don Caster, find themselves in the area all of a sudden with a brilliant charge, George Miller, formerly of Bradford, just unable to force his way through, just didn't have the time that he needed here, lovely flick to pick him out here by Lee Tomlin, fence doing its job, excellent cover work by Platts, of course some trouble, referee not happy here with the presence of Lee Tomlin who is stood in front of the ball, it's interference, he will receive a yellow card, he's done it again, need to be careful here Lee Tomlin, none of the challenge right in front of the referee, Jamie Walkup was the one with the touch, he's the second yellow, would you believe it for Lee Tomlin, well this is a disaster for Don Caster, for the simulation here, they may just have been a touch but it wasn't enough to warrant that reaction, Lee Tomlin is sent from the field, she's small words who was hanging the championship last season with Hull, new captain here as well to find some space and now the Dane Oliver fighting hard to win it inside the area, Bradford looking for the opening goal here, Jamie Walkup though, can't direct it, inside the post, instead finds the side netting, looking sharp at the start of the season and causing all kinds of trouble, so Don Caster's penalty area, Jamie Walkup though couldn't find the target and on the field it's Bradford who are seeing more of the ball, trying to carve out an opportunity here, not the best defensive header away, Calladay sends up into the air, this might be the opening, well it would have been spectacular, Brian East winding up, sends the volley wide and the score line remains no nil here, George Miller lurking, looking to pounce, wins the corner, it's a good looking ball into the box and a fabulous stop by Harry Lewis who gets down smartly to push away and he saw too much about through the crowd of players, look at this for a save, space inside the penalty area, looking for all three points on the opening day, should be a free kick and will be as Lee Angle is upended on the edge of the box, dangerous area just outside of the D for a free kick here for Bradford City, it's Jamie Walker denied and Bradford continue to push but they just can't find a way for it, goes Lee by Sutton brought on to provide some width here for Bradford just small delivers, here is Sutton again, he's pretending by Don Caster who have cleared away small width ball, he waits, he wants it, won't do as denied, good work to work the space, Jonathan Hitchcock is here to come forward, seconds are ticking by, he went for glory, went perhaps there were better options here, will be a corner kick, who delivers the cross, is this the moment for Bradford, no, the day not about into a really good position here, knows how good of a chance this was to make it all three points here for Bradford, 10 after the sending off of Lee Tomlin earlier on in the game, Mark Hughes will have to settle for a point on the opening day of the season here for Bradford, his work to do, there's an incident off of the ball here, there's an incident here involving Keane Harreps, Mitchell asking questions of the referee here, and still it continues, bad end to the game, the referee raising the his marching orders in the 98th minute and beyond the final whistle, finishes here Bradford Nill, Don Costa Nill
