City Social: Bradford City crash to loss to struggling Rochdale

The Bantams had a half-time advantage through Abo Eisa, but Ian Henderson scored a late brace to condemn Mark Hughes’s men to defeat at Valley Parade.

City will be looking to bounce back when they travel to south west London this Saturday to face AFC Wimbledon.

Here are a few views from Bantams fans on social media following the loss to Rochdale:

We’ve won 5 home league games out of 13. Regardless of poor refereeing, or any other factors, that is a stat solely down to us and one that we need to rectify quickly if we’re ever to have any hope of getting out of this depressing division #bcafc

Always likely to be a banana skin for a disappointing #bcafc and so it proved but not helped by some poor officiating https://t.co/Q35IEgnI13

#bcafc having looked back at the penalty it’s a fair tackle however if we made that tackle it’s a penalty,the Halliday foul was a free kick for us the frustration is the inconsistency from the Referees. Second half we didn’t take the game to them and deserved little from the game

The ref was awful today, but we can’t ice over the fact that we can only score 1 goal against team who have conceded 37 goals in 25 games. If we are going to get anywhere close to a automatic promotion place we need to be scoring more goals. #bcafc

That performance was shocking, yes the ref was terrible but if we want to go up we need to be beating teams like that #bcafc
