Official Match Thread Bradford City v Southend United

[Clinton Baptiste]

Set pieces need to be addressed attacking and defending. Been a weak point since brown took over.

The recent results and Sky TV will certainly help to boost ticket sales for Monday.

I assume that's said with a certain amount of irony?

Strange how poor we've been since Lenny's been sidelined :whistling:

 

[Tommy2holes]

To have just two shots on goal in any game is nowhere near good enough.

 

[RHB]

Weirdly, if the results stay the same we are still 7th.

 

[Jay_SUFC]

This is what you get for starting with a negative line up - 3 defensive midfielders and one up front is ridiculous :angry:

Also, I don't think Barrett is good enough in a back 4 at the moment; would prefer a Bolger and Thommo partnership, keep getting fed up with this left and right footed pairing talk, these are professional footballers and should be quite capable of using boot feet!!!

 

[mattitouk]

FT. Oh Well....... We go again

 

[Shrimper]

I know we're 7th but I really don't believe we're a play-off team, maybe next year with additions but I think we're too weak.

 

[Barling Magna]

A little brighter than the Scunthorpe match, but not much. Still 7th though, so nil desperandum yet.

We all know it, plus we need forwards being allowed to make forward runs and get themselves in the box.
So looking forward to us being shown on Sky, with another load of changes. It is Brown dross, after his 150th game, maybe he should have a couple of games out and leave it to Coughlan.

Been saying for ages,


We ain't playing super teams yet Phil goes for defensive crap which alway's fails.
Poor stuff Phil.

How bad are we at defending corners every single corner it's a scramble, I think it's going to be a long run in for us but atleast we have the points in the bank

 

[Derbyshire Blue]

We're clearly not consistent enough at the moment to finish in the play-offs but to still be in 7th with plenty of games to go and be chasing Millwall who lost at home to Scunny tonight puts things into perspective a little ... plenty to play for and PB won't be giving up yet I'm sure!

 

[jaffa1]

Still one more win required to avoid relegation !

Hit the nail on the head!. If by a complete fluke we went up, we are a weaker team than going up in 2006, hav'nt a pot to p*** in, and would come straight back down with less points than last time.
We all crave success, but it wont be this season.

Fed up with corners,when it's ours it's headed away and when it's opposition they mostly get a head to it first!!!:angry:

 

[tottenham541]

Oh well 2-0 loss and the only good thing is Bentley is still in good form, could of been worse if not for some good saves again.

i thought that especially as we were brilliant when he was in the side against Millwall, Doncaster and Swindon. Perhaps we will always lose a few after beating Colchester!
