The Voice - Match preview #4: Grimsby Town vs Bradford City Saturday 31st August 2024 3:00pm

Yeah, can have no complaints if we'd been beaten 3 or 4 nil. Who is your number 20 btw? Very impressed although he wasn't up against much, he'll definitely play higher than league 2.

 

Why do you need to take out your disappointment and dissatisfaction on a fellow City fan and poster? @Park bantam has his opinions and you have yours. Why do so many members of this forum think it's ok to bully someone who has a different opinion? It is my view that the (sometimes not so) passive aggression towards 'Happy Clappers' and Park in particular is playground bullying plain and simple. I know we lost. It's beyond frustrating. The team dis not play well enough. That is not the fault of @Park bantam or anyone else who would like to generally focus on the positive rather than the negative. While it's understandable to want to vent one's emotions after such an underwhelming performance and this forum is a great outlet for our frustration, I think it's unproductive, unfair, and utterly unacceptable to single out fellow City fans for their sincerely held opinions on a game managed and played by people who are beyond their control.

 

Can't argue with that mate. You deserved the points, we were woeful.
Good to see Charles Vernam back to his old self.
Well done.

 

He's George McChearan. Got him on a free from Swindon. Probably his best game today so far.

 

Noticed he did the little things well, kept the ball moving, was always available to create the overload and picked up a lot of loose ball. There was some very good pass and move stuff from your team at times.

 

Cheers

 

Think Artell is trying to emulate what he did with Crewe and play a passing game. You need the right players to do that and I think we are slowing starting to get a grip of it. Trouble is a pasting is always not too far away.

 

The only successful thing we have at this club is the physio table.
Every player that comes here and spends 2 seasons injured go somewhere else fully fit.
Charles Vernham was a complete waste of a wage for us just like many others before him.
Abo Eisa was another

 

Opinions Loyal. All I saw was a player who ran at defenders with pace and trickery.
Wanted the lad to stay personally. Even now he's more of a threat than some of our lot.

 

Sometimes its a case of asking too much from what are league 2 footballers. I think Artells style is pleasing on the eye when it works but you definitely need the players centrally to make it work effectively. MK Dons did similar against us first game of the season, passed through us for fun at times but a lack of goal scorer cost them what really should have been a win.

 

He barely played but I agree that when he did he was lively.
When Hughes took over he got the best out of Vernham and Watt for the last half dozen games but both turned their back on us

 

No I expect not.

 

How many fecking chances do they need?

 

It’s fair game on a one to one debate/ discussion Dave but name dropping him in with a random comment because the team isn’t performing when he hadn’t said anything relevant during the game is childish. That, I am more than happy to call out , as would you . I dont see any members lying but they may have a different opinion for sure .

We lost a game of football we move on to the next is my mantra .

 

That’s fair RT. Losing Baldwin threw the balance of the defence. Kelly alongside Halliday I believe , had nightmare games. Halliday is not fit at all.

 

And that’s just Harry!

 

You reap what you sow.

People feel it's open season to have a go at plenty of the "negative" members on here who express even the slightest concern and I didn't see anyone challenging those type of posts after the Bromley win.

It works both ways and if you're going to give it out, you'll have to be big enough to take it too.

 

Its a forum fella and we are all grown up men. Bullying? Come on, grow up. You dont need to play the white knight for a fully grown man.

Teasing at worst and reminding Park about some of his ludicrous claims - lets hope he has thr last laugh and we get promoted.

I see no malice in the responses. Im sure Park is big enough to take it on the chin. If he aint, there is an ignore feature.

 

Definately negative members but me, yourself, petrov etc are more fed up and frustrated

 

You bullied me over Bowen.
