That’s me lumping cash on Rovers. Cheers, Merce!

Ben Braderton.

Beat me to it. Sounds like he's peeved off with a few of them from Saturday. But what's the betting these two escaped any rollockings and keep their places for tomorrow?

Oh I agree. He’s a stubborn old goat. I found this article online earlier: https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/18139032.mowbrays-message-advice-rovers-striker-gallagher/ Safe to say he and Gallagher have learned absolutely nothing between now and then about how Gally can score goals or his role in the team!

Hopefully Mowbray’s actually watched the first goal back now and given him a ‘man up’ chat. I do fear TM won’t have learned from yesterday and we’ll see Bennett at LB and Gallagher at RW once again come Tuesday night.

Still angry tonight that the fat b****** Cook has got another one over on us. Another opportunity to shut him up goes missing.

Mowbray was definitely doing the same for a period once we went 1 down - the camera panned to him. Motivational stuff.

He seems so hesitant to shoot. Either that or the ball eventually gets stuck underneath him.

He sounds surprised that Gallagher didn’t score. I’d be astounded if he found the back of the net. As an aside, apparently he hasn’t seen the first goal back, but Walton told him he was fouled. Watch it back please Tony and put a huge rocket up his arse, preferably aimed for Brighton.

Evans has fractured his toe. Awful skull fracture aside, it’s a case of rinse and repeat with him in a Rovers shirt isn’t it?

As an aside, I reckon we could have played on til Christmas and not scored. Arma on the bench is just criminal given the lack of goals in the side - as we all said at the start.

Brereton looks somewhat reborn (albeit without threatening the goal - yet), but this bloke has become a much bigger issue. Mowbray seems to have a love affair with playing him out wide, and he just looks completely lost. He’s 6’4, but plays in the air like he’s 5’5, he doesn’t know where to make runs, he doesn’t use his strength effectively, and he simply does not know how to attack a football. I’m confident he’d still be useless up front, but this RW ‘thing’ has to stop and now. Will it under Mowbray? I don’t think so.

Played well. I just don’t think he’ll ever score goals. He doesn’t have that knack about him (hope I’m proved wrong). Gallagher makes him look like Messi too!

Harsh on Holtby! He’s obviously got fitness issues, but he had a half decent game. Gallagher and Bennett however are pitiful footballers who, despite a bit of effort, are headless chickens who will never play for a top 6 side. I cannot believe that Tony can’t see it.

As I say, bar one match, he has Tony’s number. The ‘performance’ once we went one down was galling, it really was.

2-0. FFS that is embarrassing. Hang your head Tony and lads. Every. Single. Time.

We haven’t looked remotely like equalising since that Samuel header. Not even got in their half for the past ten minutes. Appalling. Cook really does have Mowbray’s number save for that one home match last season.

100%. Like a hot potato regardless of bumping into his own man. The bloke is a clown in the air for someone so tall.

At least we can play a bit. Albeit we’re producing naff all from open play. Such a frustrating result if it stays the same.

1-0 Wigan. FFS, another howler from Walton. How on earth are we losing this? Wigan are absolutely shite.

Subs made us weaker if anything so far. Get Danny G on.

Holtby unfortunate to come off, hopefully that’s Gallagher’s last start for some time! Come on boys, let’s get a winner!

Not a bad half - we’re quite pretty in possession with some nice one touch stuff, but we’re just not creating anything from open play. It’ll be rank bad management if Bennett and Gallagher are left as they are - both complete passengers. Get Arma and Johnson on.

Huge let off there - wake up, lads.

Him and Bennett the only standout poor performers. Need to get Bennett off ASAP - they’ve picked his pocket twice already this half, and keep repeatedly attacking that side.
