Now grappling with widespread injuries along with their form slump, Voss said the Blues would “found out a bit about us” over the next fortnight.“There’s an opportunity sitting right in front of us and you don’t wish those away,” he said.“That’s what I’d prefer to go after and what we’ll start to turn out eyes to in a couple of days time. But at the moment, for 24 hours at least, we sit in the disappointment.
“As a football club, we haven’t been able to do that yet. It wasn’t here before I got here and hasn’t been at a good enough standard since I’ve been here.
