THE Telegraph & Argus' chief sports writer Simon Parker is ready to talk about Reeves, as Captain(!) Jake returned to the starting line up for the first time since Stuart McCall was in charge at Valley Parade in last night's Leasing.com Trophy clash with Rochdale.

He felt that Reeves was the game's star turn and is sure, if he can keep fit, he will quickly be challenging for a regular spot within the first team.

Sports reporter Nathan Atkinson, who covered the Bantams' FA Cup First Round tie at Shrewsbury in Simon's absence, brings up the performance of Connor Wood in that game.

He felt the full-back was near faultless in attack, but asks Simon whether the youngster needs to work more on the defensive side of his game.

Finally, the dynamic duo discuss City's replay with the Shrews back at Valley Parade next Tuesday evening, with the enticing prospect of a home tie with Mansfield Town in Round Two the reward.
