League Domination: Four Wins, Four Statements

Bradford's focus shifted back to the league.

The EFL Cup was important, but Jake had made it clear from the start—automatic promotion was the priority.

No playoffs. No last-day drama.

They were going up as champions.

And in their first month of League One football, Bradford played like a team that belonged at the top.

Match 2 – Charlton Athletic 

Charlton wasn't just another opponent.

They were one of the favorites for promotion—a team with experience, a club that knew what it took to compete at the top of League One.

For Bradford, this was their first real test of the season.

The opening minutes set the tone.

Charlton pressed aggressively, closing down Vélez and Harper, trying to cut off Bradford's supply lines.

It was a scrappy, physical battle, neither side willing to give an inch.

But Bradford stayed composed.

They moved the ball patiently, waiting for the right moment to strike.
