The Voice - Match preview Bradford City vs Mansfield Town Saturday 4 February 2023 @ 3:00pm

Well played all across the park. Deserved lead and cohesive play. It's all we've wanted really, take the game to the opposition. This is our backyard...

 

Great to have midfielders who want to carry the ball forward, got to go on and finish the job off now.

 

Thanks Dave, I’m sure I’ll catch it!

We're playing like crap. Mansfield will score

 

We are making this hard for ourselves.

If we win there'll be all the "great battling defensive effort" comments but honestly we should have either scored more or controlled the game more to not give them any encouragement.

 

I fecking told you that they will score.

Mark Hughes is a shit manager and players that have been brought in are crap too.

 

It's the same tactics week after week.

 

Well wouldn’t you believe it. Half our supporters attentions are on a f-ing ball boy in the main stand and Mansfield gifted a goal.

We’ve not done enough this half going forward. Chapman significantly weakened us, completely off the pace of the game.

 

hilarious.

 

Embarrassing crap, as per usual from the powers that be.

 

Kiwoyma is the worse commentator ever. ........... he always says we score but never do.... and always says they are in grrrrrrr

 

chapman grrrrr

 

I see that like Fordy you suffer from coprophobia.

 

Bottled it, good performance in the main which a few on here will be happy about as one or two said that was more important than the result but personally I’d rather win.

 

Two points lost in the second half!

Chapman was asleep as soon as he came on and never woke up!

 

He immediately made us the equivalent of 10 men. He’s not the reason for the result but simply not good enough. If you don’t strengthen the team when you come on, make sure you damn well don’t soften it. He did this today, absolutely not good enough for me. He’s nowhere near a starting XI IMO and don’t see what he offers from the bench. Bigger problem is bringing someone like Chapman on when we are defending a slender lead rather than owning a game either by score or performance. We rarely are in the position of dominating a game by either, meaning substitutions such as Chapman become more problematic.

On the plus side, Clayton was a step up on Smallwood - exactly what we’ve missed. Gillead has his game of the season.

Biggest concern is we still don’t look threatening enough up top.

 

the free kick by him sums him up at the moment
