I feel sorry for the staff if their jobs are inevitably at risk. Couldn't care less about anything else in relation to Wigan. They installed us as rivals years ago and have acted like tossers towards us ever since. I don't just forget about how they acted when they sent us down or the abuse they dished out to Dack after ending his (and effectively our) season.

To be quite honest most of the keepers in this league are average at best, you see constant howlers. At the end of the day they'd be playing at a higher level otherwise. Walton won't, and I doubt many others will unless they win promotion and their managers keep the faith.

Its fair to say Wigan will have known all about Waltons weak points from when he played there. Yes I do realise someone is tempted to pipe up and ask what his strong points are

Walton was vastly improved pre lock down but has gone massively backwards. Bennett has never seen being a left back but you can't be too pissed off at him for it, he doesn't pick the team. It's a strange feeling hoping Bell will be fit again soon but that's where we're at right about now!

All those can go but Downing? No chance I'd be waving bye to him.

He we still are, outside of the play office spots?

We could possibly start this game 11th in the table if Swansea beat Luton at home, Derby beat Reading at home and Millwall beat Barnsley away. I reckon at least 2 of those will happen, possibly all 3. Taking that into account, as much as I hate the term, this is a 'must win' folks.....

It feels oh so similar to the build up to the Wigan game at home. We had our tails up after just beating Bristol funnily enough away from home. What followed was a dreadful game and a dire run facing life without Dack. We really can't afford a slip up at weekend though or its curtains on the season for me. Will this time be different? I'd be telling lies if I said I was brimming with confidence.

Yep, I think yesterday was the first time Leipzig had failed to score all season, its definitely having an impact. I wonder if Leeds might fall apart without the crowd roaring them on?

My now 3 month old sleeps from about 10pm till 8 or 9am most nights, her sister was the same. Guess it's just pot luck!

Seen a few people commenting on us having tricky away games but as I've said before, is there such thing as home advantage now? I guess you will know your own pitch a bit better and don't have to travel but surely it's not like it was? Playing Leeds at home without a packed Darwen end will also be more appealing.

Regarding Gallagher, I actually watched the game on Robins TV the Bristol version. They were saying first half what a clever player he was and worrying their defence. I'm not saying I particularly agree but it's always interesting hearing how they read the game. I'd be starting Brero and Armo up front at Wigan

Tbf, and I was in shock, Merson watched our game and just tipped us as play off dark horses saying we looked full of goals. Not often we get nice things said on sky sports news! Wigan now on 5 clean sheets in a row so that's gonna be a real battle. Imagine if we could bloody go to the game! ?

Most impressive is Dom Sam's afro

As it stands only Wigan apart from us have managed more than a goal. Even West Brom have had like 1 shot on goal. Only real negative this far is Walton flapping at their goal. Every game I've watched lately has seen keepers making mistakes, they definitely look to have suffered worse without playing.

Well the Boro game is working so iFollow hasn't crumbled and gone tits up just yet

I can't really help but from what I'm reading its affecting fans from every single club, it's an ifollow balls up. My dad still hasn't got his sorted, he was speaking to someone from the club yesterday and they couldn't resolve it so have now had to raise a ticket with the IT team at ifollow to contact him. Who knows when that will be, imagine they're snowed under!

Its staggered in quite a few countries like Spain as you point out. Not a fan of it to be honest it just lends itself to armchair fans more than anything else.

The deadline won't be a date and time defined by Rovers its an efl/ifollow thing so they can get everything sorted pre kick off. You could of course argue the club should have made more of an effort to stress the deadline to people. My biggest concern is how the whole ifollow service will hold up under increased demand, haven't had much experience of it myself but its supposed to be a bit crap by all accounts under 'normal' demand. Not sure how well its all gonna go down if its continually buffering etc......

The club tweeted a reminder yesterday and my initial thought was that I bet a lot of people miss the deadline. I haven't bothered reading much about the ifollow thing as I don't need it, so no idea how clear they made that part. I mean it makes sense to have that deadline so that everyone can have their account setup in time but still. I think they, quite wrongly, presume everyones in Twitter, Facebook and whatever else these days as they rely on it a lot.

Official Twitter has posted goals etc, complete with crowd noise.....

Well looks like Bell is around for a while longer, Sharp said he's got another year on his contract.....

Its funny you say that, I do wonder if we'll see players getting booked for spitting or celebrating too closely with their pals

I don't think it's really fair to write us off completely as going nowhere this season. Theres going to be some weird results and I imagine someone is going to sneak in them play offs, you never know. Does home advantage even exist in the current climate? I would say probably not. The form book is gonna be completely ripped up I think, its gonna be interesting.

The cut out faces thing should absolutely be free to season ticket holders, in their actual seats. I reckon we will sell about 20 and look stupid ?
