The Voice - Match preview Bradford City vs Leyton Orient Monday 8th May @ 12.30pm

Great support today as well. Really got behind the team.

 

Well we finished 6th. The rest I put was right.

Glad I was only 2 places out and wrong on where we would finish.

 

I'd say second objective achieved....

 

I thought Orient didn’t put their foot on the gas much. Set of two ball playing centre backs didn’t have much to do. I bloody missed our goal cos the Mrs turned up with the baby! Thought Cook did well with what was provided to him, which wasn’t much. Gilly the only one out of our midfield to press. We need to be a lot more fluid on Sunday. Job done though, and now the real business begins.

Not sure that’s true Orient went for it first half and most of second but in the final moments the goalkeeper seem to deliberately waste time a nice gesture from a good keeper

 

Honest appraisal of the game and he talks of a 6 year plan. Don't know when that started but they seem to have their eyes on the Championship perhaps?

 

Hope the home form improves - well done getting over the line for the play offs but the number of points lost at VP cost us big time and something drastically needs to change.

 

First leg Sunday at home, second leg Saturday 20th away

 

How many of their team were CC loanees? That’s quite a tidy budget he has to play with, however , decent side though.

 

First leg Sunday at home, second leg Saturday 20th away

That's because we are.

 

They were never out of second gear. They'd have won that hands down if they had needed the points. Thankfully no one else in the division is anywhere near that good. No one to fear in the playoffs, us included.

 

Another bloody draw ......

Hope MH realises we can't progress further now with just bloody draws

If we make it to Wembley I ain't going to watch 90 more minutes of this ....

 

Let's face facts. Orient didn't break sweat today. If by some miracle we beat (bogey team) Carlisle over two legs, Stockport will kill ilus at Wembley.

 

He speaks well. Straight forward. Kudos has to be given to a great season for him and the club.

 

Vigouroux definitely appeared to slow the play right down in the last few minutes as though he didn't want to spoil our day.

Nice gesture from him during the 56th minute applause, he seemed to deliberately hang on to the ball for a long time so that the ball wasn't in play much during the 56th minute

Cracking calm keeper too

 

Why do you believe that ?.

 

Would you rather see us play an open and expansive game and see us lose 3-2? It's now all about getting out of this league, however we do it and MH has to set us up to give us the best chance of doing that with the players he has available

 

both sides seemed happy with a point the last 15 mins , I don't they were doing us any favours more that they didn't want to risk a defeat to end their season and were content to sign off with a draw, which was a relief given our ability to shoot ourselves in the foot.

 

Credit to our entire back line today, I thought they were all decent.
