The Voice - Match preview Crewe Alexandra vs Bradford City Wednesday 3rd May @ 7:45pm

Cheers. I noticed my purchase history has the block, row and seat number allocated, so if they have been lost in the post they can just cancel and reissue them.

 

Thanks. Just checked my history - got seat numbers too.

 

I bought mine on March 31st and they didn't arrive until about April 15th - admittedly this takes in the Easter period, but it was much slower than usual. Often I've received them next day.

 

My tickets turned up this morning. Guessing they were all posted out yesterday after the season ticket rush.

They are for behind the goal and are dated for the original game, so it looks like the additional batch was sent prior to the postponement rather than following the rescheduling.

 

I left before post this morning. Ticket office said had been posted. Ring back Thursday if still not received. Hopefully sitting just inside the front door when I get home.

 

Seems the club have now confirmed this game is a sell out with over 2k tickets sold.

 

Crewe unbeaten in 6 at home, winning 5 of them, and we have only lost 1 of our last 6 away games. Could be nerve wrecking encounter. Having said that, Northampton had great home record too. City need to be on their mettle for sure. Not being gloomy, think we should get point needed, just don’t think it’s all a given as some seem to be thinking. Obviously, think we have it in our power to win.

 

It certainly is NOT a “given” . Anyone thinking otherwise needs to get their head out of the clouds.

How many times have we seen it this season, it’s a “racing cert” , oh….?

 

So we need to do a Bristol Rovers and win 7-0 Wednesday to bring the goal difference right down.
Send a few crates of champagne down to Leyton Orient to help them "celebrate" being champions and push they 3 day bender into the next week, then outscore Stockport against a hungover Orient side.

It's almost too easy.....

 

Love that plan

 

That 7 -0 was a right fiddle , should have been investigated .

 

Scunthorpe lost 6-1 to Harrogate last season and have finished second bottom of the national league this year.
It's really not beyond reality that a team on the up could score 7 against them.

 

We were 2-0 up inside 5 minutes and should have gone on to put a bagful past them.
It was only our poor football that stopped it being 5 or 6.
They were easily the worst team I’ve seen at VP in recent years.
Full of kids who looked out of their depth.
The team that played Bristol Rovers was even more inexperienced than the one who we played

 

But they did field half a team full of kids that day.

 

The same team of kids that played us?

 

Actually, even more inexperienced players than the side that played us, IIRC.

 

We need to get at least a point Wednesday evening Crewe have nothing to to lose and their recent home forum is good, a defeat will make the Orient game massive, if it's true the club have given them 2500 it will be some atmosphere.

 

Indeed it will Dave. Looking forward to both games.

 

As a matter of interest, how has @The Voice done with his/her predictions this season?

Whomever you are, a massive thumbs up for some fantastic detail and comprehensive write up's this season.

I'm sure the community will join me in saying, top, top job.

 

No game is a given in this league, especially where we are concerned. However I will be travelling over to Crewe on Wednesday teatime full of optimism. I’ve been fortunate to watch the lads pull off some cracking away results this season, even where our own fans have written us off (Northampton, Stevenage, Mansfield) and I truly believe we’ll be bringing those 3 points back!
