Wigan V ROVERS 28/11/18

[K-Hod]

We’re just over half way to the magic 50 points. Unfortunately, I can’t see where the next point is coming from, the way we are going at the minute.

Shambolic.

[Tom]

Dack is gone either his head has turned or he’s gone full David Bentley 

[Reedy You're A Star]

If brerton's not gonna play upfront, he might as well play left back. Couldn't be any worse than these 2 tonight

Travis should be in this team

Dave Lee Travis would be better at left back

Terrible performance. Made worse by a shocking commentary and unbelievably crap banter on Sky red button.

[Doaksie]

I feel short changed, only watching that on the red button! Pity the poor buggers who paid and travelled. Not good enough. Changes are long long overdue Tony. Need something far more proactive on the pitch or the winter will pass us by, and we'll be in big trouble. 

[Jakey]

We’ve been bullied from the first whistle tonight. As a supporter that is incredibly depressing.

[tomphil]

Williams recently has been playing like a lumbering centre half deployed at left back !

What did Williams do? 

It sound like we have played ourselves out of some bit of form for no reason whatsoever 

Could be a long season lads

Imagine a 90 year old trying to run after Usain Bolt on an icy surface, only to give up before the race starts and turn the back to the whole thing

Can hear it now:

Graham had to come off injured, we were right back in it at 2-1, can’t legislate for that defending, thought we were more at it tonight than at PNE, will look to bounce back on Saturday.

Don't forget Wigan are really good at home. It's a difficult place to come.

[Roboftherovers82]

never play smallwood williams again please that least be a fucking start drop dack his head has totally gone give some of the others a chance 

[Tom]

Why is it that when we win we end up hanging on with teams streaming at us but when we lose we don’t ever look like making them sweat?

[Ewood Ace]

Thank god that's over. Lucky it was only 3 could have had not complaints if it was 7 or 8.

[Reedy You're A Star]

Awful performance, weird, shocking subs and made worse by having to listen to 2 Wigan tosses on ifollow desperately trying to make Wigan/Rovers a big derby game.. It never has been and never will be you sad bastards.

Need a win sharpish or heads are gonna drop.

Aye, no doubt. 

Can’t score, can’t defend, can’t win headers, have just one striker - who’s not far off being hauled to the knackered yard, 15 false 9’s and the two worst LB’s in the football league. Concerning isn’t it.

So the promotion party we pencilled in is on hold I guess?

[rovers11]

That has to be up there as one of the worst performances during Mowbray’s reign. I can accept a drop in form as that was inevitable, but it’s unacceptable when the players clearly weren’t up for it  tonight. No passion or desire whatsoever. 

Rodwell has shown on several occasions he’s not a defender. His positional sense is woeful. Bell and Williams are both showing they’re not quite up to it. 

First little bump in the road this season but we’ll be ok. Just very annoying and frustrating watching a performance like that.

[Husky]

What's this team spirit we've been hearing so much about? Whisky? Vodka? Gin?

[johnradfordsubbuteo]

it's so hideous I darent  even watch on the red buttton even though I fork out for it.

haven't had this dread feeling since before maybe Shrewsbury away last season.

in fact I haven't posted since then I've been so calm.

[BankEnd Rover]

If the manager plays that similar sort of line up for Saturday, then he needs to go! I agree with a few other posts we have been very lucky to get the points we have so far. The odd game we have look okay. Fuck knows how we rolled leeds over. 

[Angry_Pirate]

Who's gonna be the first to brave the individual player ratings after that...

Mowbray needs to man up and take the blame for once... the players come out and apologise often enough when the blame is continuously more often than not fully at the managers door step.

Now, he is on thin ice for me. Fans are turning.

[Tom Stinny]

Raya

Nyambe Rodwell Mulgrew Travis

Bennet Reed Evans Rothwell

Graham Brereton

 

Simple 442 with each player putting 100% in. Keep it simple. 

 

Dack has already left we are only paying his contract now 

[superniko]

Would it be an overreaction to drop Dack and play Rothwell in his position? 

Id rather see both start but Dack isn't immune to criticism. 

I don't know where to start with the defence!

Never was going to happen this season. First and foremost we need to stay up

[neophox]

Three last games we have been out of sorts... something is not right.
