He could have had two, and both sitters.

Dolan's terrible, shot in the box, skied it.

You're right, Szmodics missing a penalty, having no strikers and our other forward players being awful doesn't come into it.

The fuck is Szmodics doing kicking the ball away?

Got carded for "excessive celebration" then another card for saying something else to the ref after Carter challenged him.

Bizarre sending off for Rotherham.

If plan B is to put Gallagher on then Lord help us.

Yes the service was shit, but it was in and around their box plenty. The likes of Dolan and Szmodics passing it to their defenders doesn't help. It's a shame Gilsenan isn't on the bench as Dolan has been so poor. We need Ennis on.

Players. And club not signing a striker.

Poor from Carter, then Hyam, then JRC. They aren't switched on today.

Szmod is at the centre of all the crap play. Needs to come off. I hope Ennis comes on and not Gallagher.

Should have signed a striker...

How the **** did Szmod miss? How the holy **** did Dolan miss? Sums up last season.

Would have had Gilsenan on bench instead of Gallagher. Maybe it was because he cramped up against Walsall?

Some things that stood out to me last night. Did Brittain think it was another friendly? Fantastic pass from Wharton to Hedges to set up Ennis's goal. Where the hell has Gilsenan come from, and can he do it against Championship teams? Speaking of Ennis, it was nice to finally see a striker getting into good positions when the ball went forward. Haven't had that for a while. We need another couple of defenders, CB and LB. Really poor last night.

Wigan knocked out by Wrexham.

Sunderland beaten by Crewe. Preston beaten by Salford.

They are out.

Ennis fat but thin in the other thread.

Lotsa penalty shootouts in the other games.

That's a really old message board system. I remember sites using it in the late 90s.

It was over 12 mins against WBA last season.

Even with Wharton that’s an uninspiring team. If it’s not League 1 this season it is next. Steve W happy to pick up a pay cheque and complete the operation that his namesake began.
