The Voice - Match preview Bradford City vs Northampton Town Saturday 19th November @ 3:00pm

I actually thought city played better yesterday than most of our home performances but individual errors and the fact that they were far the better team meant the result was the same.
But at least we tested their keeper yesterday something we didn’t do once against Harrogate

 

Yes for one of the very few times I left early yesterday for my 80 mikes drive home. I was soaking wet and blxxdy miserable is that a good enough excuse

 

yep the reason we lost is because loads left early ......... had they all stayed we would have deffo won 4-3

 

First half hour we weren't so bad, we arguably played worse first half against Harrogate and Crawley. But after that half hour we were generally bloody awful. 4s and 5s in Parkers ratings tells you all you need to know. Worst defensive performance of the season, could and should have been a 6 or 7 nil drubbing

 

Don't know mate it was lovely here in Lytham St Annes, as yourself I had to watch it on my phone getting more and more frustrated.

 

I left early on 86 minutes. It is a rare occasion. I was thoroughly fed up with the team, plus other factors. Am I ashamed. No not at all. In fact I don’t feel like going to the next match so might be missing for 90 minutes. I am no lover of 4th division football. However I do enjoy the endeavour that happens in this division to make up for the lack of skill. Yesterday far too many players gave up and the score in all honesty could have been a lot worse.

 

Smallwood was shocking yesterday and why he took that free kick only to make a balls of it made it 10 times worse

 

That long wait may be a bonus Rod?

 

I honestly cannot fathom why the manager continues to play this way and why he continues to allow Smallwood on any set piece ?????? I bet the stats at actually creating anything are shockingly low

 

Agree entirely.
Love the sanctimonious attitude of some on here.
What the f@ck has it got to do with anybody else if people leave early.

 

You'd have been better stopping to the end to beat the traffic.
Kings Rd never been so quiet at 5pm after a game for years on my way back home

 

he’s keeps looking for the imaginary 10 foot tall player on the back post

 

it helps them with there superfan status

 

Banker Away Win
That's the way things roll at BCFC

 

If the home forms starts to unsettle our away form,start to panic

 

What was most frustrating for me yesterday was that we are more than capable of beating Northampton but was let ourselves down.
I genuinely went to that game looking for a solid home win off the back of two great away wins.

It was a fairly even game up to the first goal and then we sort of imploded.

I had just looked at the clock and saw we had been playing 24 mins and thought blimey that has flown by. Was enjoying the contest-two capable teams going toe to toe. Good game and then......

Songo'o-well I shut my eyes when he is swinging his leg to kick the ball. Cook and Oliver colliding numerous times. Did notice Oliver won virtually all his headers though. Smallwood off the pace again at home-cannot be the crowd as Hull are also well supported so he would be used to big home crowds.

Why was Wright not brought on at HT? Eisa had a few shots from range but cannot recall him beating his man to get a cross in. Wright got behind them a few times and looked really dangerous.

I did notice we ditched the playing out from the back for large parts of the game.

We were well beaten by a team that wanted it more on the day.

 

I'm glad i missed the rest of the game.
