00:00Bradford City's Curtis Tilt has said that he hopes that the Bantams' opening day win in the League One season, a 2-1 victory over Wickham Wanderers, will help set the tone for the club going forward during the campaign and hopefully inspire them on to more victories.
00:17Bradford City are away from home this weekend as they take on Northampton Town.
00:21Yeah, it was a perfect start, really. First home game of the season. When I was walking out, I was just talking about it upstairs. It was electric from the fans.
00:32We said all week, if we get off to a good start, it'll set the tone for the rest of the game.
00:36And I thought we dug deep at times, especially at the latter part of the games, but I thought the all-round performance was really good from all the lads.
00:43Was that a point of importance for you as a squad to, as you say, set the tone for the season to go out in the way that you did and perform like you did?
00:53Yeah, definitely. We knew there was a possession-based team, so if we got the press right and we could set the tone for minute one, take the game to them and win the ball back in their third,
01:04and we knew we could create chances and the two lads, Humps took a shot and Sarc scored and then young Bobby finished this nicely.
01:14And Leeds United head coach Daniel Farker has said that he will look to strengthen Leeds United's attack before the end of the transfer window, which closes at the end of the month.
01:26Yes, we will see. Obviously, we have a bit more than two weeks right now to prepare.
01:31Again, in the centre, in the defence, we are on a really good pass.
01:36Offensive-wise, if we're really honest, we have lost one of our main threats in the offence with Mano SolomĂłn.
01:44Didn't have many additions so far, if I'm really honest.
01:48If then players like Daniel James, who is important for us, or also Jack Harrison, who was not available due to injury, are not available, then of course it's a bit thin in the offence.
01:57It's how we know what we have to do, that we need also to strengthen the squad a little bit on this positions.
02:03Yes, also on the full-back positions, if there is an injury like at the moment for Jadon Bogan, it's also not that easy.
02:11So I think we have to be aware also on this position as well.
