The Voice - Match preview Stevenage vs Bradford City Saturday 11th February @ 3:00pm

If we're honest, they had 2 or 3 good chances to score against us at home, and the 3-0 scoreline flattered us somewhat. They'll be well up for this, but we shouldn't fear them. We have technically good players all over the park, so I'm hoping we can pick them off.

 

Top manager at this level who knows you need pace and physical strength for a long campaign with young legs.

 

They don't have many young legs.

Very much a senior team with most players close to 30.

 

Because Hughes wants to play a certain way, befitting his career and principles. You know, one that doesn't really work at this level.

 

Stevenage have the 5th highest average age of their squad at 26.9 years with only 7 players under the age of 25 with 2 of them being their goalkeepers.

 

It would be amusing if Trevor turned out to be inadvertently correct, though, and Stevenage eventually fall out of the autos due to injuries to their non-young legs

 

Not sure that's true from what I heard from those at the game.

Stevenage try and get the ball in the box quickly and look to win knock downs and second balls. When they played Orient they were pretty lucky that the first couple of chances were converted and Orient never got back into it.

 

Know plenty of people that attended Stevenage v Orient ? You must have a widespread friendship group.

 

Yes mate, they are called my neighbours. My postcode is SG1

 

Predicting a win
Bradford City always have done the "unexpected"
Win away at the top of the league lose at home to the bottom of the league
Its the way we roll
We are 9/2 with some bookmakers !!!!!

 

That's football I am afraid.

 

He denied being lonely.!

 

It’s a bit of a desert from memory.

 

We always use the car park opposite road to the ground.

 

They play the Parky type percentages game. In the air , hope for knockdowns in the box.

 

We may have been in the same county at one stage lol!

 

Compared to our average age?

 

Im over 60 for starters, you?

 

Having been quite pessimistic, this has dawned on me. Exactly the type of game we'd win.

 

Well over. Hoping to reach at least my eighties the next goal First game at City I think 1962 and still going with the same mate together though he is only a lad at a year younger
