The Voice - Match preview Carlisle United vs Bradford City Saturday 26th January 2022 @ 3:00pm

Chapman our striker who can't shoot to save his life, tries to lob it over the 6 foot 8 tall keeper when he's stood on his line

 

Can someone tell them to stop falling over and passing to the other team, what a load
of crap.

 

great marking there lads enjoyed the break???

 

wow another tenner lost

 

Eisa looks like he's playing in his Xmas slippers.

Lost count how many times he's slipped over

 

I cant take one positive from that first half, thank goodness I didn't go.

 

We don’t seem to play well in the North

Not good down south

struggling for form at home

how are we still in the playoffs?

 

Unfortunately it looks increasingly like our biggest barrier to success is Hughes. Insistent on imposing a playing style that's ill suited to the squad and the league.

We're awful to watch. Now, I don't think we have a group of world beaters but I think other managers would get more out of this group, consistently.

This isn't good enough and hasn't been for a while. What looked like a steady start that looked unconvincing but ready to kick on looks more and more like the high point of the season.

Piss poor.

 

I'd try and compliment the interplay between the centre backs, but even that's looked ropey

 

Well one positive is that we ain’t been battered out of sight yet ........... I hope I’m eating my words after the game but when will he fooking wake and realise this shit simply doesn’t work

 

eisa I cant stop laughing

 

Great first half!!! Immaculate passing and marking.. worthy performance from a playoff contender!! Keep it up lads.. same again please..

 

Spot on , personally I think some the football played under Hughes is absolutely soul destroying.

 

Either Hughes is bringing in some more players in Jan or City are sliding down the table without a fight

 

Games over. Same tactics. Same formation. Same Shit

Gillead is doing decent to be fair in midfield. But there’s nobody doing the role of Walker. It should be Chapman but he’s playing as more of a second striker, albeit, an extremely ineffective one. Smallwood made one or two decent challenges but besides that hes lost the ball repeatedly. Everybody is standing around like a statue an not running into space to receive the ball. Crichlow is having to hold down the defence and midfield at the moment. Foulds need to wake up. Eisa is doing his best bambi on ice impression. Cook is isolated. Wright doesn’t look confident to take on his man. Hughes will persist with this shit for another 20 mins, an then he’l bring Oliver on for Cook & Sutton on for chapman. If were lucky, he’l bring on Banks for Eisa at the 75th minute mark. Its a fecking shambles

 

We do and a very poor non league oufit at that. That was utter garbage of the highest order orchestrated by a poor manager i'm afraid to say.

 

Oh yeah, an the League Two Neymar has re-emerged for his yearly performance against us

 

We look poor in possession and that's when were playing it out from the back if a radio commentator can see it why cant a couple of ex pro's see it, Carlisle are quite happy letting us have the ball at the back then as we come forward they press and we lose the ball one way or another piss poor Mr Hughes.

 

Most damning thing you can say is carlisle want it more.

There defender Feeney has schooled wright with a few hard tackles. Wright not wanted to know since and has disappeared.
