THREE goals in the last 10 minutes condemned Accrington Stanley to their sixth defeat in seven league games.

The Reds had established a two-goal lead over Bradford City through Jimmy Ryan and Terry Gornell.

When Gornell's first senior strike five minutes into the second half added to Ryan's third of the season, it provided a seemingly comfortable cushion for John Coleman's men.

But the introduction of Barry Conlon for the last half-hour changed the game for the promotion-chasing Bantams.

Michael Boulding pulled a goal back on 80 minutes, before Conlon rose to head in an equaliser from Paul McLaren's free kick with two minutes to go.

Disaster struck in the dying moments as Stanley were caught out on the overlap and Peter Thorne crashed in the winner.
