ACCRINGTON Stanley are on course for only their second home win of the season thanks to Jimmy Ryan.

The Republic of Ireland Under 21 international drove home from a John Miles corner midway through the first half.

Bradford had dominated possession and chances in the opening exchanges, but struggled to test goalkeeper Kenny Arthur once Stanley had taken the lead, until the second minute of stoppage time when he made a superb save to keep out Joe Colbeck's 25-yard free kick.
