Steve Fletcher scored two and set up the other two as Bournemouth easily beat Bradford at Dean Court.

The veteran striker drilled a low shot beyond City keeper Rhys Evans but Matthew Clarke headed the visitors level from Nicky Law's free-kick.

Mark Molesley's dummy and disguised pass found Fletcher lurking in space to add a second while Jeff Goulding arrowed in a third before half-time.

Fletcher then helped on a long-ball for Goulding to race clear and fire home.
