The players will be nice and comfy on Waggotts state of the art coach coming home at least.

Brum losing is massive. They have 4 points from their last 10 matches, losing 8 of them, giving us a run for our money. Our saving grace is that there is still a chunk of teams between us and the relegation places. Hopefully Bristol City can do similar on Saturday against Huddersfield! Heads should roll at Rovers tonight, I can’t wait for this season to end now and reassess if I give up in the summer

Not good for goal difference with Leeds away up next!!

Cardiff thank god!!

Not sure it’s balls, strikes me more a bloke who hasn’t got a clue and just had a gamble on changes. If it’s was ‘balls’ he’d have taken off Hyam for starters, closely followed by Gallagher and Brittain

Brittain is literally just passing the ball to red shirts consistently. Between himself and Gallagher I’m not sure they’ve completed a pass to a Rovers player

Not sure who Miller meant, but my opinion would be Brittain. Woeful at the back and giving the ball away every single time going forward

If ever a moment summed up how Gallagher isn’t a number 9 / goalscorer it was that.

Leaving on Hyam and taking off Wharton 😂😂😂 what a clown

1 win and 10 points from 11 league games. Relegation form/quality any way you spin it. Edit: about to be 12 league games. Would be 38 points across a season, between Rotherham and Wednesday

100%. I’d get Carter on now to give him some minutes with a view of Carter and Wharton together for the rest of the season

We only need maximum 3 more for safety in my opinion….just hard to envisage where it comes from when watching performances like this!!

Could really do with Cardiff doing us a favour tonight!

How is that fella still our captain? Has zero traits of a good defender / leader. Hopefully the last season we see him in our shirt but I won’t count on it

True, and I guess they're a different team now to the 1st half of the season. Never the less, I think every club will have similar feelings around 'I'm nervous for this fixture'. Ideally you want to be playing someone mid-table and nothing to play for (like us tonight!)

We may well be, but I think if we are, there will still be a few teams between us and the relegation spots, so it would require a large swing (with Huddersfield away at Ipswich we need to hope they're still in with a sniff of automatics). Hopefully we get the job done tonight!

Isn't that contradictory to some extent? Saying other clubs have kind fixtures, yet you're worried about our home match vs the 3rd worst team in the division who have a -31 goal difference. 1 win from our remaining 5 and we're safe. No chance are 3 of Birmingham, Wednesday, Huddersfield or Plymouth getting to 50 points, which they'd need if we get to 49 due to our GD. I actually think 2 draws does it on 48 points for us.

Waggott gonna Waggott

I wonder what the contract with Sodexo is. If they had half a brain between them, then there would be a clause depending on ST sales i.e. if we sell 8k, 10k, 12k, 15k+ season tickets we should be getting different income from Sodexo. It's bad enough they just offload all that to any old 3rd party, but financially it gives us no incentive to have more people in the ground if it's just a fixed fee regardless.

I guess we can thank Adam Wharton for helping us tick over for another year or two. Next accounts will have wages down and Wharton money so I’d imagine will be below that £7m buffer but who knows with the Venkys cooked books. The big wigs would have known our situation in January so I guess that explains why we were desperate to get him out the door to the first club who came knocking

We owe £4m in player purchase instalments that could rise to £6m. Who the fuck is that on? We haven’t signed anyone for years.

I think a similar paragraph was in Burnley’s latest figures too. Not sure it’s anything particularly standing out to previous, and it’ll likely be in most Championship clubs reports as they ‘chase the dream’ of the big money league. English Football is just so unsustainable. Can’t be long until it all blows up.

Yeah I agree, prior 2 years saw our best opportunity to restore the base but the clown in charge as always got it wrong (here buy a 5 game bundle instead where you can save £1) Like you say, why would anyone want to part with their hard earned to these muppets who have cocked up 3 consecutive transfer windows by not doing their job properly even though they realistically work a handful of days a year.

Tom Brady rocking up at Barrow 😂

Yeah, a draw against them would mean only 4 games for Wednesday to gain 5 points on us. Would defo take that, though I’d hope we don’t set up that way
