      Conlon penalty seals fantastic comeback

      Stuart McCall's Bradford fought back from 2-0 down to beat 10-man Chesterfield in a five-goal thriller at Valley Parade. The visitors scored after three minutes when the Bradford defence failed to clear Dan Gray's long throw and Jack Lester slotted in. The Spireites then increased their lead after 23 minutes when Darren Currie's 30-yard shot took a deflection off right-back Tom Moncur. Bradford pulled a goal back with a free-kick from the edge of the penalty area from captain Graeme Lee in the 29th minute and Michael Boulding equalised with a close-range header in the 37th minute. Both sides had chances in the second half before Barry Conlon scored the winner on 73 minutes from the spot after Nicky Law was brought down by Alan Goodall, who was sent off for a second bookable offence. The victory sees the Bantams move up to second in League Two.
