The Voice - Match preview Most liked posts in thread: Bradford City vs Grimsby Town Saturday 9th September 12:30pm - sky sports

Didn’t we bring Pattison in for goals from midfield and we now do have pace up front. Trouble is we are so busy playing about dangerously at the back with a goalkeeper who’s distribution is terrible we are never in the opposition half

 

Sorry Ad you've lost me where have I mentioned the above changing the playing style ?, I completely agree with your highlighted, if you look back changing what almost worked for us and strengthening positions he thought needed strengthening is exactly what I said.

 

What’s factually wrong in that statement

 

You do know "ripping up contracts" usually means paying their contract up don't you? Therefore no money is saved to use on others. Mutual terminations also usually favour the player financially

 

Another OTT reply, point out where I made your above comment you cant, of course he was not a particular success at Barrow, but he's certainly showing a different Jake Young at Swindon.
The Jake Young situation is not the only deal where the club have given lengthy contracts to players and found out they are not up to their expectations, maybe we should look a little deeper than quoting the obvious, the likes of Foulds, Hendrie, Odusina, East, Oliver, Derbyshire need I go on ?.

 

Well if he is as good as people say he is we will get enough money back to more than cover anything we lose same with Lewis. This not a dig at you but if a player isn’t showing it in training whoever’s fault that is it’s best to let them go

 

In my experience he doesn't have a sense of humour to lose, which is why I have him on block.

 

By his own admissions, Mark Hughes regularly didn't "show up" in training until he came back from Barcelona having massively cut down on his lager habit. Perhaps Young has the same issues (perhaps not) but I would have thought Hughes could have used his own experience as a young player to help him bring Young on. Perhaps he did and perhaps Young was so disrespectful, and on such a regular basis, that Hughes thought their relationship had broken down to a point where it had gone too far to mend ? Who knows.

 

I think I've seen this fellah that you refer to lurking in the bar at the Rose & Crown, waiting to push his way into someone else's round.

 

not its not @Bigrod.

 

See teens acting like wannabi hooigans arrested on Saturday according to the t&a today

 

Unfortunately Grimsby come with a bit of a reputation and will always get a few of our scum fans crawling out of the woodwork wanting a ruck.

 

Friday night kick off ?.

 

There's also the fact that the media ref has the benefit of a video replay from different angles. Most fans never seem to understand how hard it is to get a decent enough view of every call to even get 70% right. Even that Mansfield hand ball looks obvious but in real time the ref can probably only see the defenders back. No way he can see where the contact is made but fans will still slaughter him.

You're spot on about the subjectivity of it all. Most fans berate referees for decisions that they disagree with even when there are loads who support the decision.

 

Looks like Stubbs could be out for Harrogate that would be a crushing blow on top of the other injuries

 

Kelly ,Platt and Tomkinson it is then.
