Alexander concerned by Fleetwood

Fleetwood boss Graham Alexander admitted he was worried by his side's lack of goals as they were beaten 2-0 by Bradford.

James Hanson and Filipe Morais provided clinical finishes for the Bantams to boost the club's play-off hopes as the home side could not make first-half chances count. Danny Andrew, Stephen Dobbie and Josh Morris all went close before the Bantams landed a Boxing Day sucker punch. Alexander said: "We've done everything but score. We've done everything but hit the target. "I'm disappointed we've not tested the keeper and it's let us down. "The performance was there for the whole game. The width of the post has done us second half. "But we've not taken the opportunities first half when we were on top." The Fleetwood boss is now considering a January transfer raid to boost his side's attacking strength, with Town having scored just 21 goals in 22 League One games. He said: "We'll be out there, we'll be looking for that consistent striker. Us and the other 91 clubs. "That's why they're the ones who drive around in the big cars and make the big money - it's what everybody needs, everybody wants. "It's not like it's a problem that's crept up on us overnight. We know what we need to do." Bradford's Phil Parkinson was left to look back on a job well done. He said: "I spoke to the lads about making the point on Saturday into a win. "It was about making all the sacrifices of the last couple of days worthwhile. We really did that. "In the first half they have had a few chances but we've scored a really good goal. "Second period we've improved a lot and it was a really, really good performance from us and we got the deserved win." The Bantams boss was less pleased with the challenge on James Meredith which led to his touchline bust up with Northern Ireland international Conor McLaughlin. He said: "There were two challenges in front of the dugout and the ref said to me they weren't red, they weren't yellow, they were amber. "The first one was a very dangerous tackle. "I know we thrive on the tackle in the English game but when there's a real danger of somebody getting hurt something needs to be done. "I'm all for keeping everyone on the pitch but where there's a chance of that it has to be a red and that's a red."
