Bradford extended their lead at the top of the league with a commanding 6-1 victory over Heaton Stannington. The match, held on October 25, saw Bradford’s striker Adam Haw score five of the six goals, underscoring his dominant performance.

Haw opened the scoring early, netting a tap-in at the back post just six minutes into the game. He doubled his tally from the penalty spot 15 minutes later, before completing his hat-trick shortly after. His third goal came from a well-executed strike following an indirect free kick taken by Scott Duxbury, which was laid off to Haw for the finish. The striker then continued his scoring spree with a deflected shot that found its way past the Heaton Stannington goalkeeper within two minutes of the previous goal.

Bradford’s fifth goal arose from a defensive error by Heaton Stannington, with a poor clearance allowing Haw to slot the ball into the bottom corner. Late in the game, Heaton Stannington managed to pull one back through Sado Djalo, providing a brief respite for the visitors. However, Bradford substitute Luke Parkin sealed the victory by adding a sixth goal, extending the home side’s lead atop the league standings.

The comprehensive win highlights Bradford’s offensive strength and ability to capitalize on defensive lapses, maintaining their position as league leaders.
