The Voice - Match preview #45: Doncaster Rovers vs Bradford City Saturday 26th April 2025 12:30pm

Really.? Something I didn’t see …petulance?

 

Corrected for you....

 

I agree.

There's enough in the squad to get over the line. It's been the management of the non-starting 11 along with poor substitutions and odd/defensive tactics at times that have meant we haven't picked up as many points as we should have. Frankly, I'd be more respectful of Alexander if he just came out at times and said "this is on me" instead of the bobbins he usually says.

 

I don't see how Rupp can be at fault here. He's given us funds this season which Sharpe and co have spunked on players like Baldwin

 

Look at the defender pulling Byrne down by his shirt collar? Unpunished or am I seeing things ?

 

I agree on the decision. It certainly didn't look like he was going to give it and the linesman started waving his flag for a foul before the ref actually awarded it. It may not have been given if it weren't for the linesman.

 

The penalty miss is obviously a massive factor but Baldwin and Baldwin alone deserves all the vitriol and stick that gets thrown towards the team today.

Smallwood at Swindon was part and parcel of the game and happens regularly in the heat of the moment.

Genuinely almost lost for words at the Baldwin red
Was lucky to escape a yellow during the game for an accumulation of fouls.
Then decides to berate the ref continuously and almost went nose to nose at one point as he’s coming off the pitch.
Gets a yellow and decides that he’ll go for the full house by keeping going.
Brainless and inexcusable

Wouldn’t be bothered if he never played for us again.

 

I’m not going to pass a judgement on Baldwin, @NorthernMonkey will be along soon and do it in a much more balanced manner.

 

What has Alexander had to say then?

 

I think he wanted to get clarification that it was in the box.

 

Not been on yet.

 

Sharps goal was schoool boy defending. Wow.

 

Sharpe doesn’t identify and select players. He provides funds for players and identified by others .

 

OK I didn't see that, but Street still beat Baldwin to the header.

 

I understand it was identified as a straight red …why?

 

What was he doing. It’s half time, 1-0 down in a massive game and he’s kicking off with the ref on the pitch. He gets shown a yellow and continues having a go. Cost us massively because 11 v 11 we still have a chance.

Club should fine him heavy. The 10 men played well but why Wright on the pen I never know.

Our form has been dreadful recently. We should be well out of sight now and promotion but now we wait and it’s a painful wait at the moment.

 

It's his Tommy Leigh at MK moment.

No longer welcome at the club, we need to move him on.

 

Constant Foul and abusive language is a straight red.

 

That’s fair but it should have been ruled out for the foul on Byrne imho.?,

 

Well we have to hope Walsall don’t find any form. Currently out of our hands which is depressing.
