What are we thinking for today's game then folks?

-
Head says draw. Heart says win.
-
1-3 today for rovers same kind of game as Charlton they will come out fast but we will soon come in to it and are class attacking options will show through RTID
-
Coppinger starts, otherwise unchanged. Hasani makes the bench.
-
Good choices on the bench if changes needed
-

Is the pre-match TV show with Liam Hoden on air for away games ?? Have had a look on Youtube but cant seem to find it. Found it enjoyable last week.

I'm getting a black screen on the iFollow match stream. Anyone else having problems?

i've been thinking backing Rovers to win 3-1 every match might be a good idea
what are the rules about the oldham match
(a) does a non used sub count as played ??
or will will see a couple of 90th minute substitutes just to say "they were on the pitch" and met any rules.
-
Up and running now, players out warming up in the rain!
-
Thanks RA. It's the first time I've used the paid-for service and unsure if I have a problem.
Cheers. Got it now :scarf: :scarf:
-
Rovers to win 2-0, does anybody know why Oxford v Crewe is postponed? Covid?
-
1 case of covid in the Crewe squad so postponed
-
Covid. One Crewe player positive. Crewe wated to play, Oxford didn't.
-
Why is it showing 'Wigan Athletic v Doncaster'
Surely, it should be 'Wigan v Doncaster', or 'Wigan Athletic v Doncaster Rovers' ?
-
Good morning everyone, tough but winnable game for Rovers, keep winning momentum going.
-
Wigan have an attacking midfielder at centre half today.
-
Ooh, good chance there, should have taken that.
-
Lovely interception by Richards, but his default placing the shot has to be much much better than that, or hitting it hard.
-
Classic Copps, unlucky!
-
Great shot from Copps! Good save too.
-
Another great shot by Copps and a good save.
-
I'm beginning to wonder if it's even physically possible for defenders to tackle Copps in the box.
-
Rovers taking hold of this game now. The goal is coming.
-
Big chance for Tay but puts it wide by an inch
-
It's all Rovers but we do need to take one of these chances.
-
How did Taylor miss that one!
-
All I am getting is a partial circle whirring around
No help from instant (laugh) chat
-
Up to the opposition box we've been excellent. Whiteman domination. James and halliday really getting forward well.
Taylor should bury that chance though.

-
How are we not winning this yet?!
-
We look good though. Some of the play has been beautiful.
-
Difficult one to take from John-Jules, but great build up play.

-
Hope we don't rue those chances.
-
Some good football. But what a missed opportunity from Taylor. Whiteman class.
-
Taylor, Coppinger twice and John Jules it should be at least three. But all four chances should have been taken.
-
Big points lost if we don't win this. First half has looked like a Championship side against L2 in the Cup.
-
Whiteman has been the best I've ever seen him, as good as Brian Stock in his pomp.
-
I wonder what we’ve been doing in training! I can see this being 1-0 to Wigan, probably from a set piece! The chances we’ve had in that first half and the keeper has been tested maybe twice, both from Copps. Awful in the last third today, but another 45 mins to put that right.
-
A second half performance as good as the first and we'd have to win it.
-
Just hope we won't regret all the missed chances.
-
Picking up on something said in commentary....when ball goes out for a throw in do they have to use a different ball?
-
Whiteman has been the best I've ever seen him, as good as Brian Stock in his pomp.
Spot on. He’s been exceptional. At the heart of everything.
-

That's what they said, but it's not been consistent from what I've seen.
-
1:0
-
That was very slack.
-
No surprise, we've been dreadful this half.
-
Not sure where Bursik is going there
-
Birsik f**king hell, not sure about him at all
-
Am I being harsh or should have Bursik saved that?
-
Not a fan of Bursik at all, maybe we are used to a better standard of goalkeeper, but he has made errors that have lead to goals in every game he has played this season
-
He seemed wrong footed.
Wright gave it away stupidly in his own box to present Wigan with the ball for it as well. Sloppy from Rovers.
-
Poor goal keeping
-
We were absolutely spoiled last season with seny...
-
Never mind Bursik. What the hell was Halliday doing. He made no effort to challenge Garner for that header.
-
That was a decent save. It should have been 2-0
-
We've got time to turn this around, changes may be needed.
-
Need a goal quick
-
Wtf is that substitution.
-
come on lads, deserve something from this.
-
Needs to take John Jules off hes not been in it at all.
-
Just had a bet on Wigan to win so we may get a draw now
-
Looking a bit lightweight up front today.
-
Can't remember a decent chance in the second half.
-
Some poor passing this half
-
This is what happens when you don't take your chances
-
Poor half this
-
Been like a different team this half. Credit to wigan for pressing more than the first half but our passing and first touch for several players has been trash.
-
FT 1-0
-
Got what we deserved there.
-
All over... lost 1-0. :crying:
-
Deserved defeat after that second half. Nobody looked to know what they were doing and we barely created anything. Gave a sloppy goal away and lost. Darren Moore won't be best pleased!
-
Poor second half. Just never got a grip of midfield and some sloppy play at the back.
-
We created absolutely nothing in the second half.
-
Moore out....!!!
-
As good as we were first half we were equally as bad second half, Birsik is no where near the keeper Dieng is, poor kicking, and no idea on his positioning, and at least make an effort to save them
-
Well... talk about a game of two halves.
Never got going second half. At all. Sloppy in our own half. Bursik - I hope he takes some lessons from that because he was sloppy with his distribution. Wrong footed for the goal but that happens. He made saves when needed, which want much over the 90+.
Odd game. We should have been out of sight. But that’s football.
We move on. I’m sure DM will be all over that second half showing though.
Next!
