The Voice - Match preview #23: Mansfield Town vs Bradford City Thursday 1st January 2026 15:00

Must of been a heavy night last night for the Bradford players, especially GA for picking that attroious starting 11.

 

Well... what a start

 

Such a soft goal to concede, Power put under unnecessary pressure by Byrne but really shouldn't be losing possession there

 

Probably our most embarrassing performance (due to how soft all three goals have been) since we played Mansfield last.

 

Game over barring a miracle last 20 minutes. Defensively we've made far too many basic mistakes and that just sums it up

 

Kav must have some 2026 clause saying he plays 90 mins each game.

 

And please don't tell us the lads gave their all, that's the least paying fans expect.

 

How was that Byrne's fault? Wright makes the pass to Power and Power turns into their player.

 

I'm not bloody laughing!

 

Will be very interesting to see what Rupp/Sharpe/Sparks do. On the last three games we need 5 or 6 in and similar number out of the club.

 

That's all on Power and to be fair he held his hand up as he was demanding the ball from Wright.

 

Like Orient.....got caught trying to play out from the back....

Kav not in the game at all but still on the pitch...

Poor all over....

 

We’ve been lucky to be where we are.

Every opposition forum have said how poor we are and this proves it

 

Time for the plane @JonButterfield ??

Seriously, this has been dreadful, from the set up of the team through to individual performances. Very disappointing.

 

It’s days like this that I really dislike GA
When he gets it wrong, my god he gets it wrong
My only hope is that he is trying to show the management that serious investment is needed in the playing squad to maintain our position

 

Jones having a go at Power for messing up, he should never have been receiving the ball in that position.

 

GA bargaining for some transfer funds, dont worry, it's all under control!

 

This is Notts County all over again from last season

 

Kavanagh and Swan up front.

About as much threat as Iggle giggles blanket.

 

This is the worst we've played in a long time. They look like pub players out there.
