Final whistle - match report
League One
Rotherham (0) 0
Bradford C (0) 0
Att: 9,228 (Televised)
Report by Simon Parker (T&A)
City finally ended a run of six straight defeats at the hands of Rotherham
with a gritty point at the New York Stadium.
It was a drab game for the live TV cameras but the travelling fans were
delighted to see their team share the spoils after so much disappointment
against their South Yorkshire rivals.
The draw lifts the Bantams up to 50 points - surely enough to avoid any late
panic in the dogfight at the bottom of the table.
Adam Reach had City's best chance with a close-range effort blocked by
keeper Adam Collin.
Rotherham hit the post through Michael O'Connor and missed good chances from
Haris Vuckic and Kari Arnason.

CITY GET THEIR HANDS ON YOUTH TROPHY
City's youth set-up finally got their hands on the Youth Alliance (North
East) Division winners' trophy this Friday (11 April 2014) morning after
being crowned as champions of their league this season.
The Bantams' Head of Youth and Academy Manager Peter Horne received the
trophy at the Coral Windows Stadium from former Bantams defender David
Wetherall - now Head of Youth Development at the Football League - and the
League's Youth Development Business Manager Jim Briden.
Now in the club's possession, the trophy will be officially presented to
City's triumphant youth team by Wetherall and Bantams boss Phil Parkinson on
the pitch at Valley Parade before the club's final Sky Bet League 1 home
fixture of the season against Crawley Town (on Saturday 26 April 2014).
This club's title success this campaign is a fitting reward for City's
apprentices, who led the way at the top of league since the very start of
the season.
They actually won the title with three games of their league season to go
just over two weeks ago having won fifteen and lost only two of their
nineteen matches up to that point.
Even more impressively, the Bantams actually went through until 11 March
unbeaten in the league. Their tremendous unbeaten run through to March
incredibly saw City only two points throughout that period.
Unsurprisingly given their dominance this season, City have conceded the
fewest goals in their league so far and scored the most. Their final game of
the league season is against Burton Albion this Saturday.
Not happy with their title success alone though, City's apprentices will go
for a league and cup double later this month when they take on Colchester
United in the Youth Alliance Cup Final.
The cup final will take place at the Coral Windows Stadium on Tuesday 29
April 2014.

FALKIRK FINALLY RECEIVE MARK STEWART PAYMENT
by Chris McCall (sport@falkirkherald.co.uk)
Falkirk are £155,000 better off today after Bradford City paid compensation owed to the Bairns regarding the transfer of Mark Stewart.
The Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled in favour of the Westfield club last month following a long-running dispute with the Bantams.
FIFA originally backed Falkirk's claim in January 2013 that they were due compensation for Stewart following his move to the Yorkshire club in July 2011 under freedom of contract.
But Bradford contested this ruling and appealed to the Swiss-based court. With no other legal avenue open to them, the club has now paid the agreed amount to the Bairns, as well their legal costs.
Falkirk general manager David White said: "It's been a long, hard road to reach this point. But even after three years, we feel that it has been worth it."
Heraldsport understands that the cash has not been earmarked for any specific spending plan, but that it could allow the club to post a small profit in the financial year.
The Bairns had originally claimed more than £215,000 from Bradford for the striker. They were due the training compensation as the club offered Stewart, who was then under-23, a contract within an allotted time-frame set-out by FIFA - but Stewart's June birthday complicated matters.
Since leaving Bradford, Stewart has played for Hamilton, Dundee and Kilmarnock and is currently turning out for Derry City.
