The Voice - Match preview Most liked posts in thread: Bradford City vs MK Dons Tuesday 13th February 7:45pm

Once again Kevin McDonald rolls back the years and proves he's still very much a professional of the the highest order.
Kids can learn a lot watching him and been around him on the training ground.

 

I wasn't feeling too well this morning but we decided to go tonight, more in hope than expectation. Very glad we did. Feel much improved now!
I found it hard to choose a man of the match. In the end I thought it should go to Tomkinson, with Platt and Gilliead very close behind.
It was quite surreal to enjoy the last 15 minutes of the game.
Ref was shocking.
Our neighbour in the stands had a new pair of glasses. His optician had told him he'd be able to see more City goals with them on. We told him he isn't allowed to take them off now. He says he is claiming full credit for the victory.

 

A good Ramadan would do him the world of good

 

We've had some rough refs over the years and even considering the usual suspects this guy tonight takes first prize, unbelievable .....and yet we won ...

 

That was the best performance I've seen from a City side for years.

Everyone played well. JT at the back was solid as a rock alongside Platty and Kelly. Smallwood and McDonald both ran the show. Oduor played well, took his goal well and created the one for Kav. He could press harder, but that's just being picky.

I sit in the main stand and there's a negative trio who sit near me and just before Oduor set up Kavanagh they were shouting to have him taken off. The fans around me took extra delight when he nearly scored then later on did.

Cooky was class. Won nearly every header and pressed high.

MK Dons passing the ball around at 4-0 down across the back 4 with no urgency was one of the most bizarre things i've every seen.

 

I reckon there will have been quite a few season ticket holders who will have paid to watch on i-follow,rather than trail out on a cold and wet Feb.night.

 

I've gone for a treble, Ciaran Clark, Jake Kelly and Richard Greenwood.

 

Erm, excuse me. I think you'll find that if we don't win tonight, those 3 points on Saturday will not be null and void, they'll be another step towards maintaining our football league status.

How many regular posters are watching on iFollow tonight?

 

Matty Platt like a prime R9! Great finish

 

Think Mansfield might have three points in the bag...

 

Sutton on the weekend though folks.

We all know how City roll...

 

I posted earlier that he never looks rushed.
Different level to anything else we have in midfield

 

Might sound daft, as they’re losing 4-0, but MK Dons look a decent team, it’s just been one of those nights from their point of view. In fact, I’ve seen worse looking teams come to VP and win over the last couple of years.

 

Possession doesn't win you games we saw enough of that under Hughes.

 

The lad was saying to me earlier, they were a team who liked to play it out from the back, and didn’t have an answer or alternative plan of action when in a losing position. Kind of like us under Hughes i suppose

 

Good win against a good side.

 

A good side? They're not even in league 2 automatic places and you're getting carried away. Our mediocrity is a result of fans like you who are over excited with beating teams we should be beating anyway. Raise your expectations ffs.

 

I think the stabilising influence of a steady Walker has given the defence a much needed confidence boost.

Gilliead played very well at LWB. That is what we need. 2 wingbacks to provide energy on each side, not just on one. Mcdonald is quality. As someone said earlier, we have not had a quality ball playing midfielder since Cullen. Watt was probably the closest we've come to it but he was far too inconsistent. It helps us adapt a different strategy if hoofball does not work, which it typically doesn't to be fair

Not Odour's biggest fan but he played well tonight. He deserves some praise from that performance

The main thing about todays performance was constantly pressing from the front, and getting onto the attack when we had the chance, rather than playing it safe. That is what won us the game. And that is what we need to do on a regular basis as the home team, we need to take the game to the opposition. If we do that on Saturday, we will win
