The Voice - Match preview #37: Wigan Athletic vs Bradford City Saturday 14th March 2026 3:00pm

If anyone wants an u12 ticket for tomorrow’s match, let me know. Got a spare, so would be good to pass it on to someone.

 

Wednesday/ Saturday/ Tuesday.

I'm certainly expecting changes but hopefully kept to a minimum.

 

This.

By next Saturday it’ll have been:

Saturday / Wednesday / Saturday / Tuesday / Saturday.

There’s no way that Sarce in particular will start all five games and there’ll be others who won’t too.

 

Rest him on Tuesday night ideally.

Home game, winnable tie, we beat Donny without Sarc and thats a fairly equivalent side to Mansfield.

I think we should fully commit to trying to win a second away game.

 

Yes, we should have enough on Tuesday to win without Sarc. Put him on the bench and introduce him for the last 25 mins if need be.

Sarc came off for last 20 against Port Vale so you would think it was done with one eye on today. For me, he starts. Hopefully it is the same 11 and any changes are made on Tuesday to freshen up the pack.

Was Neufville injured on Wednesday? If so, we may see Ashby start today.

 

branston beans are the best

 

Unlikely I know, but...

If anyone has a spare adult ticket for the match this afternoon then I'll happily take it. Fully recompensed obviously.

 

City at Wigan on Pi Day

 

22 July?

 

Another unchanged 11 and bench. A big test for the players to go again for the 2nd time in less than 72 hours, I can't see this being as easy as Wednesday night away.

Although they won't admit it publicly I think we are using these games to get some confidence in the players and fans away from home going into the play offs.

 

Looking forward to being able to debate the pros and cons of resting players before the final few games of the season if we have 3rd spot tied up by mid April.

 

Said it before and say it again - win the game that's in front of you. Worry about the next one after.

Trying some 5D chess with selection and upcoming matches is what has got us into problems earlier in the season.

 

Really hope Wheatley breaks his duck this afternoon, and judging by the prediction thread I'm not alone in that.

 

It can't be easy as Wednesday, Port Vale are bottom for a reason. Alexander spot on to stick with the same side, never change a winning formula.

 

To be fair, yes.

Sarc might come off early today for some reason and then be fit and healthy for Tuesday, anything can happen.

Play your best team and if Sarc is too jaded to play on Tuesday, that's Tuesdays problem.

Full strength today whatever it looks like.

 

GA has been resting and rotating players all season.

Is this a genius managerial outcome.....

All the suspect players have not been worked to the bone and can now be unleashed for the last 10 games without too much burn out??

 

Same team announced..

As Arthur Askey would say... "I Thank You"

 

Bolton to Rovrum: "You're going down with the Wigan".

Well, we could play our part there today lol
