Bradford fan falls over while goading Jordan Gibson, Billy Sharp goes viral with goal celebration

A Bradford City fan falls over while goading Jordan Gibson, Billy Sharp meanwhile goes viral with his goal celebration.

Billy Sharp’s goal celebration in front of Bradford fans in Doncaster’s 3-1 win goes viral across social media.

Donny handed the Bantams their first loss of the season, all the goals coming in the first half: Luke Molyneux headed in a Jordan Gibson cross on the 6th minute, Will Swan levelled for Bradford on 12 minutes, then Gibson regained the lead on 22 minutes, before Billy Sharp added a third on the verge of half time.

Sharp, 39, did the chicken dance in front of the away end, with the home fans chanting ‘Who put the Bradford net, Billy Sharp did’.

Doncaster boss Grant McCann said, per Doncaster Free Press: “It was an excellent performance. Really good. The first half we were outstanding and could have been in front by more really. The second half it was controlled and we’re abit disappointed we didn’t add to add our tally but we did what we had to do.

“I don’t think our goalkeeper had much to do, either.

“They’re a good team Bradford, but I felt we dealt with everything today and the boys delivered the game-plan.

“It’s ok putting a plan together but the players are brilliant at seeing things in-game and taking responsibility. I think that’s a trait of any good team and we certainly have that.

“The front three were very good and all scored and everything starts with them – the energy and the press got us the three goals.

“I just knew Gibbo would contribute today. He was one of the first names on my teamsheet watching how Bradford play. This game was perfect for him and I’m pleased he delivered what he did.”

Jordan Gibson said to Doncaster Free Press: “We’d have liked a few more goals but it was a really pleasing performance today.

“The gaffer said previously he’ll pick a team for what he thinks is right for certain games. He wanted me to drift inside today as a number ten and that’s my game really, where I’m most comfortable.

“I’ve played against them a few times and always had it (abuse) so knew it was coming. It gives me an extra five or ten per cent but it backfired a little bit for them.

“I’ve said it before, it gives me that extra boost and an opportunity to shut them up. Thankfully I was able to contribute today to the win.

“It’s funny actually because I’ve not wore my white (adidas) Predator boots in a while. And I thought back to the Grimsby game last season where I scored twice and I just thought I’d wear them today. And I got a goal and assist today so maybe I’ll stick with these!”
