BOSS’ BOLD PREDICTION FALLS SHORT

-

GRAHAM Westley promised 600 passes and 25 shots a game after being unveiled as the new Peterborou­gh manager.

And while his side did not quiet deliver on his lofty ambitions against an underwhelm­ing Bradford side, the former Stevenage and Preston boss must have been pleased with how his side controlled the game.

Posh were easy on the eye and, although they didn’t create many chances, the midfield diamond worked well.

The match might have turned out differentl­y had Steven Davies’ header gone in instead of hitting the post, but Bradford created little for a home side backed by a strong support.

The Bantams were helped by decent setpiece delivery from Lee Evans, but in normal play they created very little.
