The Voice - Match preview #25: Bradford City vs Cardiff City Saturday 17th January 2026 12:30pm

I don't

Surely you can't just add an un announced signing to the playing squad

 

Yer, they hoofed it more against Stevenage and it was an awful game to watch.

 

Doubt many managers would debut anyone short of Messi or Rooney unless they have had a training session or two. If they had done the rumour mill would be active.

 

Probably the big question is will Bobby be fit to start.

If not, what we should really do is play Humphrys on the left and Swan in the middle.

I know there's all this bobbins about Humphrys being a central striker but we have to use the players available so pick the best team and try and win the game.

Otherwise we have this awkwardness of T Wright not quite being on the ball, Swan on the bench and the team not pressing properly. Humphrys still needs to run when he's playing centrally (like Swan does) so I do feel the running excuse for not playing wider is a bluff

 

No

 

Bloody Hell, fog over here in Horsforth is much worse than a couple hours ago... anyone know what it's like at VP ?

 

Just the fog of battle

 

Defo getting thicker and that's just me. Joking apart is the rule that the ref needs to be able to see both goal mouths from the halfway line ?

 

I'm in Eccleshill which is the other side of the valley and it's not that bad at all. There is fog but it's hardly a pea souper.

 

Baldwin Tilt Touray back 3 as a few thought, on paper it should combat their height and movement well.

Pointon in for Kav who's not even in the 18. New signings on the bench

 

Tilt vs Salech will be interesting.

 

Traffic is so much easier for 12.30 kick offs.

The more the merrier.

 

No Graham, of course I don't mind you picking my brains for this weekends line up.

 

Cleared up here as well Jon. I just remember the smoggy old days when factories were churning out smoke and a lot of games used to fall foul of the smog !

 

Once you get passed the nightmare at Bailiff Bridge traffic lights
