Valley Parade's 125th birthday celebrations went flat as City slipped to
another depressing defeat at the hands of AFC Wimbledon.
Boos greeted the final whistle after a result which left Phil Parkinson's
men still wallowing at the wrong end of League Two.
Hereford drew level on points while bottom club Plymouth's first win of the
season brought them within two.
And for the second week running, City were beaten despite scoring the
opening goal.
With new centre half Andrew Davies replacing Guy Branston, Michael Flynn
marked his first game as captain with his fourth goal of the season and
third penalty.
But rather than paving the way for a first win under Phil Parkinson, instead
it was the league new boys who clawed their way back to claim three points.
City almost got off to the perfect start as keeper Seb Brown headed a
clearance against the on-rushing James Hanson. Time stood still as the whole
ground watched the rebound bounce against the post and away.
Matt Duke palmed away Sam Hatton's free-kick before the home side went in
front after 25 minutes with another penalty.
Again Jamie Devitt was involved, caught by Gareth Gwillim's high boot as the
defender tried to clear. Ref Mark Brown pointed straight to the spot and
Flynn confidently dispatched the penalty.
But Wimbledon were level within six minutes as Jack Midson fired home from
Christian Jolley's cushioned knockdown.
Ritchie Jones had a good effort from long range but the game had become
subdued as it reached half-time.
Both sides swapped headers to start the second half, Luke Moore at one end
and Hanson stretching Brown at the other.
But City ran into more problems in the 57th minute. Nobody closed down
Jolley when he received a pass 25 yards out, allowing the Wimbledon
midfielder to pick his spot with a superb curler into the top corner.
Craig Fagan was summoned from the bench and nearly levelled with a thumping
half-volley that flew narrowly over the bar.
City showed the occasional neat build-up in the closing stages but nothing
to seriously hurt the solid Wimbledon defence and save a miserable
afternoon.
===========================
Chant of the game
"Where's your banner gone?"
Apparently that was what the Wimbledon fans were singing throughout the game.
It relates to when we stayed in the Premier League in 2001 and sent Wimbledon down and we had a banner proclaiming "Bye,bye Wimbledon"

Bradford City: Lilleshall trip helps accelerate Ramsden's recovery
6:50am Wednesday 28th September 2011
By Simon Parker
Simon Ramsden is preparing for a second stint at Lilleshall Sports Injury Rehab after making big strides on the comeback trail.
Phil Parkinson believes the injury-ravaged defender could be only three weeks away from rejoining City for full training.
Parkinson has been delighted with Ramsden's improvement from spending a week at the specialist centre in Shropshire, so he is keen to send him back there for more.
He said: "Simon's progressing really well. He's mentally very positive and physically looking a lot stronger.
"He's back with us for a few days and then he's going to Lilleshall for another week. They are pleased with him and, if all goes to plan, he should be back in training within three weeks or so."
Parkinson is not surprised at the impact that the first spell of intensive treatment has had with Ramsden. The one-to-one sessions – which are paid for by the Professional Footballers' Association – ensure the injured player gets priority attention.
"I've been to Lilleshall as a player myself and know the difference it can make," said the Bantams boss.
"I had injury issues at the time which seemed to be going nowhere. But getting eight hours a day of solid treatment just focused on you was fantastic.
"It can be a bit soul-destroying being injured and coming in (to the club) every day. You can't see the light at the end of the tunnel.
"Physios can work with players all the time and sometimes it needs someone else to step back and assess things.
"Simon's gone away to a different place, hearing a different voice, and he's buzzing. I'm confident we will get him back and I don't think it will be too long."

Wayne Jacobs up three mountains in 24 hours
On 28th September 'Jakes' and his team will take on three mountains in three countries in 24 hours. The challenge is described as "One of the ultimate challenges in the United Kingdom" and will see One in a Million climb the three highest peaks in Great Britain. Ben Nevis at 1344m, Scafell Pike at 978m and Snowdon at 1085m offers a monumental challenge for the team.
Wayne said "We're doing it for the children and young people of Bradford to support them and to show them we believe in them. Believing the best for Bradford." Another of Bradford's favourite sons, Brian Noble is supporting the event but unfortunately cannot walk it due to a recent operation failing to heal as quickly as expected.

Devitt picks up knock
Posted on: Tue 27 Sep 2011
City will monitor a knock picked up by Jamie Devitt in last Saturday's match with AFC Wimbledon ahead of their trip to Burton Albion at the weekend.
The Dubliner has a problem with his hip flexor after appearing to fall awkwardly in the second half of the Dons fixture at the Coral Windows Stadium.
Devitt was replaced shortly afterwards and City boss Phil Parkinson says the club will be looking at his progress.
Parkinson said: "Jamie's got a bit of a hip flexor problem from the weekend.
"It's something that will be looked into.
"He's an important player for us and his form has been a positive for us in recent weeks, so we'll be keen for that to continue."
The loanee winger has now returned to parent club Hull City for a few days for treatment on the injury.
===========================
Fellow City forward Nahki Wells has also attracted interest from his country after being called up for Bermuda's latest round of FIFA World Cup 2014 Qualifiers.
Wells is now expected to meet up with the Bermuda squad next Monday ahead of their matches with Trinidad & Tobago (October 7) and Guyana (October 11).
Wells, who featured in both of Bermuda's first two qualifiers back in September, is now scheduled to miss City's Johnstone's Paint Trophy tie at Huddersfield Town and the home League 2 fixture with Torquay United as a result.
