The Voice - Match preview Most liked posts in thread: Bradford City vs Leyton Orient Monday 8th May @ 12.30pm

to be honest sounds like a storm in a tea cup. Club decided something but didn’t inform everyone, as soon as mistake was realised it was sorted. No body lost out, an honest mistake was made and corrected.
T&A must be desperate for stuff to fill their pages

 

We did after the Ipswich match.

Get through tomorrow then worry about the playoffs.

 

Hometickets 22,500 plus away circa 2,000……..Christ on a bike….. Magnificent !

 

9.30 tonight?
We'll try not reveal the result to you beforehand then....

 

Indeed. As someone on Twitter said earlier this morning, two teams on show, one with nothing to play for and one whose whole season is riding on the next 90 minutes - let's hope we can tell which is which.

 

Just thought Dennis, I should go down and cheer em on….?

On second thoughts family heading in the opposite direction!

In the fridge in readiness!

I hope everyone enjoys the big day today with a win, 24,500, happy supporters at the end, and 24,500, in respectful silence at the beginning. 56 RiP. Thinking about you all. Come on City!

Gulf in class huge

We have some very very slow players

 

Orient weren't on it but were still clearly the better side. Their number 15 - exactly what we need. A defensive midfielder who's always on the half turn and looking to play forward.

 

Why play forward when sideways or backwards keeps the ball???

Does my nut in that Smallwood, Gilliead, are always looking to pass sideways. Just get your head up and move forwards ffs.

 

Me neither. Very low confidence. Don't trust Hughes approach, or the quality in key areas. We still don't know our best formation or 11.

 

If we win it won't be pretty. It will be some turgid, depressingly dull performance with a goal from a free kick or some scrambled effort. The players are capable of doing more, the tactics mean they are playing with the handbrake on.

 

Maybe not awful. But awful to watch. Allowances today for the anxiety factor and credit for getting the job done. But our approach play is awful to watch. Someone else posted its like the players are playing with a handbrake on, it's been like that all season and its spot on. For a player who was such a dynamic force, I'm surprised that Hughes playing style as a manager is so passive.

 

Honestly Dave we should have walked the Carlisle away game. Wasn’t that the game where Cookie was dropped after as he missed three sitters. Am I dreaming?

 

Honestly Dave , he wasn’t a bad referee at all. 25+ games in the CC this season and only 4 in L2 says he’s pretty good.

If VAR was a thing Derbyshire would have go a pen for us in the last 10 mins as well from my seat.

 

I am more thinking of Crichlow and Banks, as I am sure you know.

 

We are also more than capable of beating any of the 3. It will boil down to who steps up, and probably a fair bit of luck as well

 

I think it's too close to call. Carlisle have been a little like us of late, they aren't exactly firing on all cylinders.
Stockport and Salford have the better records over the last 6 or 7 games. However Salford lost today and only just squeezed into a play off place. I guess Stockport are the favourites but all it takes is for a team to have a poor game and it can be curtains. That sort of sht happens and it can happen to any team.

 

Decent game and they had probably two or three standout players across the park whereas out MOTM was our full back. They attacked at some pace and always looked like they could score if they wanted to.

If we do get promoted we do lack pace across the team. That's why we miss Wright so much.

Would like to see the Derbyshire incident again. Initial thoughts were that he milked it somewhat but others nearer said it was a penalty.

Now we need to break the Carlisle away stat and that should see us through to Wembley.

 

100% a dive . He apologised to their player and ref after it . Got straight up and never appealed.
