Football: City suffer defeat
Rob Taylor struck a brilliant winner as Port Vale came from behind to deservedly beat lacklustre Bradford City 2-1 at Vale Park.
The visitors took a 12th-minute lead when left-back Robbie Threlfall bent a 25-yard free-kick over Vale's defensive wall and into the top corner of Joe Anyon's net.
But Vale, and Marc Richards in particular, only had themselves to blame for being behind after an opening 45 minutes which they largely dominated.
Richards did equalise five minutes into the second period before Taylor landed the decisive blow in the 79th minute with a dipping volley over Glennon and into the net.
