Nielson departs Bradford City

BRADFORD CITY winger Scott Neilson has joined non-league Crawley Town for an undisclosed fee.

The Bantams accepted a five-figure sum for the 23-year-old on Sunday evening and Neilson has since signed his contract with the Blue Square Premier hopefuls.

City manager Peter Taylor said last night: "Crawley came to us with an acceptable offer for Scott over the weekend.

"I just felt Scott may not have received the amount of games here that he needs at this stage of his career, so we decided it was best to accept the bid from them."
