Goals either side of half-time from former Tranmere Rovers striker Andy Cook sealed maximum points as Bradford City won 2-0 at Prenton Park in League Two.
Tranmere manager Nigel Adkins tried to look to the positives, despite his disappointment, saying: “We started the game really well but the first goal we conceded changed the complexion of the game because we were playing well until then.
“The second goal has come when we were pushing and we were in the ascendency really and they punished us on the break.
“From my point of view it’s very disappointing and in the cold light of day, I’ll go through the game again and pick the bones out of it.
“There were many good things we’ve done today, however, we lost the game and I’m really disappointed.
“We lack that cutting edge at the moment and we’ve got to look at it calmly because obviously emotions are high at this moment in time.
“We are working on it and we are improving, but it’s hard to say you’re improving when you’ve just been beaten 2-0.”
