v Wigan Athletic (h) - 6/2/23

[Gav]

Gallagher deserves to be dropped, he’s been poor of late, but so has Brereton, but we can’t drop everyone I guess.

With the fewest crosses in the championship this season, we don’t really help ourselves, you can’t feed of nothing.

I think we will win at least by three goals

Well, we'll need Diaz and not Brereton on the pitch, to have any chance of that.

[CrouchingNunhiddenCucumber]

Only going one way tonight for me, the shitter of an end to the transfer window to be compounded by losing to the shitters at the bottom of the table 

[West Yorks Rover]

What's the weather like at Ewood tonight ?

[Trinidad Rover]

Well, here we go. Huge game for many reasons tonight.

Not overly optimistic but I hope the players can channel some frustration into a decent result.

Sad watching JDT. He is still seething and once again distanced himself from the transfer shambles. Consistent in emphasising the ‘young team’ needs support, clearly he feels some sort of responsibility to them. Really can’t see him sticking around past the summer. 
 

Come on Rovers.

Sums up the Rovers squad perfectly.

They get in the team because there's no competition. And if you don't you'll get a chance regardless a match or two later.

Motivating those players can't be easy.

Gareth Vale will come of age tonight. 

Hopefully if he gets a chance he'll put it away. My biggest worry of Vale is he provides no physical presence and the ball doesn't stick if he's muscled out of it. I'd be quite happy with us persisting with him if he added that to his game.

It gonna be raining goals.

Howard 'howlin' Gayle is on commentary. 

[Mercer]

Really fear for us tonight.

Wigan get an early goal and could become very toxic.

[Paul Mellelieu]

Watching from home tonight - bloody Sky moving games.

Missing the Riverside.

Give over.

Has Dacky played against Wigan since that thug Morley did his knee in 2 years back. (Yes I know it was just a nudge)

If not I can imagine him being very up for this one. 

[Gav]

Boycotting tonight.

I thought the government were banning bettings adds on Tv, Sky is full of them under the guise we are thinking about you, set limits 🙄

[CrouchingNunhiddenCucumber]

Brereton back then, fucking useless 

[Exiled_Rover]

Sitter #4 from Brereton-Diaz.

[duckson]

Good chance for Diaz, telegraphed it! 😞

[Ianrally]

Are Villarreal watching?

[jim mk2]

How did Brereton miss that????

[Tugay-is-God]

Come on Ben. I remember when he was scoring those.
