O’Neil off for Hunt is very odd
We looked dangerous down the left with James, O’Neil and El Miz linking up well.
Now we have lost any width we had in the team

They remind me of us tbh - lots of passing it around but very little goal threat. It doesn't make scintillating viewing that's for sure

I agree . Being down to ten men I think Ollie would have been more effective especially on any counter attack

The player was telling the ref not to book him AFTER he’d given the card.

Same bloke that got Forde and Galbraith booked earlier. Cheating little silly sausage.

Doesn't sound as though Wigan are any better than us. Big half coming up for us - Soteriou and Forde have got to step up - we may well have to score just to draw the match.

Can seen their wing back getting Forde sent off next.

Should have kept Ollie on.

Where of where do they get these refs from. Terrible decision the red card.
Still think we can win it, we're better than them.
I agree with boarders above, I wouldn't have took o Neil off though. He looked our most dangerous attacker

forde up front with his pace and hunt can still come on, forde has also been booked so less likely of getting sent off up against there best player.

Yeah, fair enough.

Not sure Forde has played up top since way back against Stevenage though, has he?

I don’t think he left the ref a lot of choice. Already on a yellow and his foot is too high and he doesn’t win the ball. Immensely disappointing but he has to go.

No idea. I normally nod off at half time and make up any old ratings.

O'Neill came off at H/T last week, although he started this week he's possibly not 100% fit

Forde off for Sweeney . Looks like we’re just going to try and hold on for a draw . Might as well bring Pigott on as our lone striker and go long ball . I can’t see us scoring now any other way

Hehe - I know you're hoping for a rise but, feck me, if you think Sotiriou should still be on the pitch today you need you head read. I'll be charitable and think you're simply on a wind up. Saying this, if Sotiriou now scores I'll be deliriously happy!

Ruel is putting in a shift that neither of the kids or Piggot could do.

This isn’t about Ruel - it’s about the lack of an alternative.
