Bradford crushed Aldershot to maintain their League Two promotion push.

Peter Thorne turned in Steve Jones' cross to put City ahead in the second minute and Dean Furman's deflected shot went in off the bar to double the lead.

Thorne made it 3-0 with a header from Nicky Law's corner before making way for Barry Conlon, who ran on to Law's through ball to make it 4-0 late on.

But there was still time for Rhys Day to deflect Joe Colbeck's cross into his own net to complete Aldershot's misery.
