The Voice - Match preview Mansfield Town vs Bradford City Saturday 2nd September 2023 3:00pm

May not be brilliant but make no mistake it would be a good point for us if it finishes like this

 

Get the fecka on

 

It shouldn't be telling we've made 4 subs

 

What's really weird is that we haven't been negative. Unless you call not launching constant route1 hoofs negative. We've played some decent football, as have Mansfield. I'm enjoying the game.

 

Rubbish. We should have beaten these. This nonsense of "let's take a draw" annoys me. A win today would have taken points off a team ahead of us and a promotion rival. When there are chances to win, we need to take them because we'll draw and lose some we expect to do better in.

 

We’ve took our best player off for Ridehalgh who instantly gets the ball out wide near the edge of their box and passes backwards to useless Kelly who again kicks the ball out of play. Why do we insist which such garbage? Stick Kelly and Ridehalgh in with the under 12s

 

And you and all the happy clappers just keep on wearing those rose tinted specs

We are a team going nowhere under Hughes and his negative football

He’s no better than the likes of Jim Jeffries, Simon Grayson or Derek Adams

Our fans deserve better

 

For the happy clappers who say this is a good point. They have a striker at full back and only kids mainly on the bench. Their best players are out injured… not beating these today is not good enough

 

Second half is better, the first half was as boring as football gets.

 

Maybe thats why
We are knackered

 

It was weird walking out of the Colchester game and seeing us get no praise at all.

I think you hit the nail on the head, some fans want 100 mph football like Stockport (which isn't working for them, btw) or direct balls coming down with snow on.

 

Aye... To finish mid-table.

I love your outlook. Very optimistic.

 

Oyegoke on.

 

So explain what has been negative about today's performance? As the away team we've had 54% possession and more shots on goal than Mansfield. We've played some good football in midfield. We do look a bit lightweight up front but we're without our big centre forward and our biggest goal threat from midfield.

 

They may have half a team out but we have Hughes which is even worse

 

For osadebe.... christ knows what system we are playing now.

 

Derbyshire needs to retire. Rubbish hold up play and his passing is Sunday League

 

Exactly

 

How didnt he score from that, another corner badly defended...............

 

How the hell Hughes can justify Oyegoke in a holding midfield role
