Im not Sure how you can dig out a substitute when the rest of the team played dog. Morton for me was poor today, looks like he could be a good player but underwhelmed by him.

Yeap, I’d be amazed if we finished above 10th.

Poor performance but a wins a win. We really miss the likes of Rothwell IMO. Might be an unpopular opinion but there’s a player in Szmodics. Got a neat touch.

Kaminski may be a good shot stopper but his kicking & dilly dallying with the ball is up there with the worst I’ve seen.

A lot of confidence so that surely means we will loose? I see a frustrating 0-0.

O an Amari bell tore Carter a new one in that second half….Goad Brittain is back.

Like our squad…far too inconsistent.

& Watford are beating a side who thrashed reading at their place who are beating inform Wigan…. …..Ladies & gentleman….The championship

Embarrassing once again. How can we go from playing so well to so poorly. The amount we’re conceding away from home is massive Alarm bells IMO. This is going to one hell of a long season.

We play a formation of wing backs with the worlds slowest LWB. How does that work.

It’s a massive relief that we can pull a performance like that off….I was extremely worried coming into the game watching previous home games…. I just feel like it’s going to be one of those inconsistent seasons but I’ll take that if it’s going to give JDT & GB time to bring quality in…A tough game on Saturday where I’d happily take a well fought draw.

Watford almost playing like we have the past few games. I’m shocked how bad they are to be honest. We need another goal, Watford maybe playing poorly but they have the quality to turn this around.

No way we’re getting a result tonight. Expect an easy 2/3-0 win for Watford.

I think every time goes through inconsistent spells in the championship. Let’s put it this way, out of the 7 games on Saturday I only got 2 results correct. The others were shock results IMO

Anyone know how many we’ve sold? Can’t see us selling any more than 3k tbh.

Agreed but with Wharton or Mola instead of Morton…Also Hedges has to start for me - Dolans record is far better as an impact sub…

Wigan don’t have the best squad but they have players like McLean & Power who will simply eat our young squad alive. As a result I feel JDT will switch around a little, move Trav back in the middle, ideally with Wharton & then Carter to RB. I really fear for us here, however I said the same before Blackpool. If we want to be treading above water then we need to be beating teams like Wigan. I’d take anything other than a loss..A scrappy clean sheet 0-0 - However I predict 3-1 Wigan with fans starting to turn at JDT. Roughly 3k rovers fans.

That’s exactly how it will go….I like the idea of JDTs style of play but we are going to need a lot more quality if that’s going to happen. I’m sure Gregg will see this as the season goes on. Dont get me wrong if we don’t pluck out wins then questions will need to be asked. But if we pull performances like Blackpool now & again then it shows that it COULD work. Next week I worry because Wigan have experience and toughness in their team. Something we lack. Max power is going to have a field day against Morton or Wharton. We need Travis in the middle or we loose IMO.

Sorry my point is we will be up & down all season with results going not the way we expect. My worry is how many goals we’ve shipped…Hopefully with players back that will ease.

I put this point across yesterday. He’s at much a fault as for when we gave the ball away in the first place…For a defensive midfielder, he has to do better.

O behave… I think you get my point. We outplayed Blackpool 4 days ago, & the same happened to us yesterday. “o but blackpool are a terrible team”… they beat QPR at their place a few weeks back. It’s the championship!

I think you’ll find GB has stated things will take time. This season i feel will be case of 1 win, 3 losses then a draw…I’m happy with that & waiting to see who comes in on the next few windows. If it comes to this time next season and we’re at the same level then ‘maybe’ we should be slightly worried.

It’s clear that the difference from the first two home games results to the last two home games is players out injured. All though I don’t think we played that well in the first 2, we had Brittain, Trav in the middle with Ayala at the back. If we can get 4 points before the international break then I’ll be happy….Hopefully after have a full fit squad.

I think a lot of it it is heat of the moment. I tend to get up the following day and re-think my thought to agreement with you. But at the same time the manor of our losses is a worry. We won’t go down, but we won’t make the top half IMO. Patience is key, & I’m happy to wait. It’s still refreshing to hear JDT even after a loss. I’m just glad moggers isn’t here. Where did Farke finish his first season with Norwich? Was it 12th? Then he got them promoted the season after.

Like a lot of Sunderland fans are saying, why would he come to us over them?
