Not as bad as Mellor and Henley. Or Akpan.

 

I thought Novak got through a lot of good work. Missed a goal but who doesn’t.

 

Donaldson is dogshit. Lost count of the amount of sitters he’s missed this season. Novak is just as bad. Put Doyle and Vaughan in today’s line up and we score 5 at least.

 

Disagree, Reeves tidied up so many times, at one point only Reeves and Connolly were performing, it was that strange of a game.

Reeves good today.

 

Apparently Stuart wasn't happy with the cheering when Akpan was subbed, turning around and saying to those around him that Akpan was one of us. Maybe he should try telling that to Akpan who again coasted through the game and marked space ever so well.

If only he'd put a quarter of the effort in that Reeves did, then we'd have bossed that game from start to finish. I'm struggling to see how Stuart can defend him and continually give him a start in the first 11. Pritchard, Cooke and Taylor offer way more and the sooner he's away the better. Reminds me of McLean all over again. On good money and stealing a wage.

 

One of the most bizarre and embarrassing match reports from a club I've ever read.

The way we have been playing its more a case of
"What time can you get here"

 

All of my mates supported Bradford City when I was younger, but we never really organised a game to go to together. For a few years I didn't really keep up with football after snapping my ankle playing the game casually.

Now my cousin (who feels more like a brother to me) is growing up and I decided it might be a nice thing for me to do for him. Bring him to a game every so often and if he likes it, bring him to most home games! Also sadly my dad passed away when I was pretty young.. so it was never really a possibility, and even then he would have probably supported Leeds!

I did also watch a game online, happens to be the win against Stevenage, and it kinda inspired me to see it in person! Can't wait. Here's to the play offs.

Hope that answers your question.

 

this is a serius question.can anyone explain to me the benefit of havng Hope Akpan in the city team?

 

COME ON CITTTYY!!!

Absolutely buzzing ! Knew we were gonna smash it today !

 

What is with McCall and Akpan?

 

At welcome 3 points but boy we can never do it without hanging on can we

Good to see us create so many chances today, but the amount of sitters we missed was embarrasing.

The lads battled well today though and they looked up for it more than Plymouth in the first half especially.

Good performances from Reeves, Connolly and Wood.

I am afraid to say it, but Donaldson looks passed it now. Novak played better today though

All in all, the 3 points puts us back in the mix, just need some points and performances on the road now

Very subdued crowd today

 

Strangest game I've seen for a long time. Should have been 6 or 7 yet we end up conceding against 9 men. A welcome three points but christ we made hard work of it. The pitch and conditions were a great leveller, Plymouth never really got to grips with the playing surface, constantly overplaying. The sending off killed their chances. Connolly man of the match by a country mile.

 

thought Reeves put a shift in and Novak getting unfair stick. Connolly definitely match winner.

 

Thought we played the conditions better than plymouth today. Actually thought they looked poor, even with 11 men they were poor. The biggest positive is the fact we are creating chances. When you think back a month when we hardly had 1 shot on target per game.

 

Regardless of whether we make the playoffs this season or not, I think the signs are good for next season. As long as Rupp continues to back us I think McCall could create a real team in this division with a full pre-season to work with.

 

He should concentrate on his tactics, trying to play an elaborate passing game on that pitch was naive at best, stupidity at worst.

 

Shame we haven’t a snap of Dylan when he was facing the kop encouraging the fans and the ball was being blown back to him by the wind hilarious.

 

Had £20 quid on City to win and both teams to score at 4 to 1. As soon as the City defender backed off I knew they'd score. Worrying how it seems to have become a habit. Needs addressing ASAP. Other than that we should have scored five at least. Strange game in the sense that we won but by default. £100 quid in the back bin though.
