Bradford Town boss Paul Shanley says he will give his players one simple message in the dressing room before Saturday's home game with Wells City – relax.

His side are on a three game winless streak, having lost the first goal in and he fears the players are too nervous to play their natural game.

“A month and a half ago I would have said Wells City was a winnable game for us,” said Shanley.

“But then I would also have previously said the last three games were winnable as well but we've taken just one point from them.

“I would take a win any way one can come at the moment but in the dressing room I shall simply say to them 'Relax and play the football that got us towards the top of the league earlier in the season'.

“We need to go one nil up in a game to take the pressure off. If we can do that I think we'll go on to win.

“It's been a good season and we don't want it to peter out now.”

Nick Ross is rated at only 50/50 for the weekend's game.
