SWINDON Town head coach Scott Lindsey felt a point was the least his side deserved following a 1-1 draw away at Bradford City on Tuesday night.

Tyreik Wright hammered the Bantams in front midway through the first period, only for substitute Luke Jephcott to volley home the equaliser in second-half stoppage time following his own missed penalty.

An encouraging start from Town made way for Bradford dominance in the first half, but the second period featured almost exclusively Swindon pressure as the visitors hunted for a point.

As chance after chance went begging, it looked as though it would not be Town’s day – only for Jephcott to stand up when it mattered most

Asked if he felt a point was the least Town deserved, Lindsey said: “Yeah, I think so.

“I think, in the second half especially, we were very good. We created a lot of chances in that second half, so we’re disappointed not to take all three points.

“But on reflection, they’re a good side, and this is a tough place to come, so it’s a good point on the road.”

At the break, Swindon counted their lucky stars they were not further behind as Bradford dominated with 66 per cent possession and multiple shots at goal.

But a chance to reset did Town the world of good, and Lindsey revealed his half-time team talk simply centred around reminding his players to trust in themselves and start trying to produce what they’re good at.

Lindsey said: “We spoke at half-time, and we felt they had really good rotations which we had worked on in training. But we didn’t commit to our possession.

“An opposition can always throw what they’ve got at you, but they can only do that if you’re not very good with the ball.

“They were the better side in the first half – that was very clear to see. At half-time, we said: “we can talk about their rotations, or we can talk about who is going to press who, but ultimately, we’ve got to be better with the ball and we haven’t been great.”

“We needed to commit to what we do, commit to us playing with the ball and moving it from side to side.

“We needed to be calmer with the ball. I thought we were quite erratic at times, and I certainly think the lads listened and took on board what we said at half time.

“I felt we were by far the better side in the second half.”
