The Voice - Match preview #3: Plymouth Argyle vs Bradford City Saturday 29th August 2026 3:00pm

Drag Connolly off. We don’t need 6 defenders

 

And launched high to Pointon again.

 

Back to aimless lumping it I see

 

Dont get the change. You're 2-0 down, why swap CB for CB? Try go for it!

 

I think this is the worst game Sarcevic has had in a City shirt. He’s been an absolute liability, legs look gone

 

Dont need a midfielder though.....

 

Pointless signing midfielders when we bypass them. Adam Phillips will get sick of playing in this side

 

To summarise

mcCracken with some poor distribution

defenders resorting to hoof ball

Touray cant use his right foot

pointon hasnt impacted the game at all

sarc legs look gone. That midfield is washed

Connolly hasnt impacted the game either

Phillips had a good 5 mins and done nothing since

And swan really needs some shooting practice

 

Yep. Called it when we captained and extended him. Should have got rid of him as a hero. We'll regret it.

 

Ref is clearly bored. Not seen a single foul but he keeps blowing his whistle. Just end the game now if you’re going to let Plymouth wind down the clock so much

 

Couldn’t agree with this summary more.

 

So after what seemed to be an overwhelmingly positive reaction on here to the start of this season, judging by the match thread we are in for a really bad season. Can the perspective really change so dramatically? I'm not watching the game or following it other than here as I'm on holiday. Just amazed by the change in mood.

 

Not at the races at all today. Poor all round.

 

Recency bias. We have been dire today

 

First poor performance showing squad deficiencies, I think it's fair enough.

 

3 shots all game with 0 on target and lumping the ball forward
Nothing learned from last years away form
The Sarcevic midfield experiment needs to stop now and should never have been made captain

 

Never seen a team that persists with playing with a midfield where neither player is capable of stringing a pass

 

Every team has off days. Just gotta hope our away form woes won't continue again this season.

 

Absolutely it happens its football you cant win them all, onto the next match. Meanwhile sky are having a multiple orgasm with Wednesday scoring 7

 

Clutching at straws here but they could have been a few second yellows for time wasting agains the new rules, petulance and diving for the Plymouth lot
