MATCHWATCH : Wigan Athletic (h)

[Millsy]

Still think we would have done better under PInce. He knew how to win the games we had to.

Comparing shite v shite.

Bring in shite, he does shite, get rid of him, replace him with shite, he does shite, get rid of him, replace with shite, he does shite, get rid of him, he does shite etc etc etc etc etc

Compare any bullshit nobody of a manager of the last 10 years with any other, it's all irrevelant.

Today was utter depressing. I didn't even celebrate the equaliser

[Hound]

The effort was there but we have no quality. Azeez showed flashes but he was inexplicably on the bench

Thought Hunt got it very wrong. Poor team selection, Hoilett and Long both absolute passengers. Had flashes in the second half but obvs conceded just as it looked like we might grab the lead

Subs were poor (should have brought Hoilett off a lot earlier, and Mbengue for NGW? Bizarre). Switching Azeez when he had their LB on toast.

Hendrick sums this side up. Works hard, runs around, clearly cares but is just not up to standard

Fornah was exceptionally bad wben be came on. Sarr was very good.

Deserve to go down to be fair. That’s our level

[Royal_jimmy]

5 home draws in a row. That's why we're in the bottom 3

Hendrick was absolutely dreadful. When he wasn't hiding at RW to avoid his midfield responsibility he was second to every ball in behind, passing out of play and blazing into orbit. Absolute arseclown.

NGW was making quite a few mistakes before coming off, and may have been one of those not tracking for the goal so I get that.

Azeez looked poor with the odd flash. Hoilett obviously wasn't fit. Casadei tried, we gave Joao almost nothing. Yiadom put a huge shift in. Sarr and Holmes were ok but so often given absolutely zero option to pass out. Lumley did fairly well.

That cross from Fornah.

The Toms looked bereft at the end.

[JR]

Did what we had to do today, which was not lose.

If Terriers get 4 points from Cardiff and Sheff Utd then fair play they deserve to stay up.

If not then they will be the team under pressure - much better for us to be the hunter then play for a draw.

Who realistically thought we could win two on the trot anyway? At least that is now just one.

[Royal_jimmy]

Couldn't fault the energy, effort and passion but we really aren't very good. We are full of poor overrated players.

[loyalroyal4life]

Today showed for me just how much T Ince carried this team, no doubt would have already been down by now if it weren't for some of his performances and goals

Any chance he will make it back for the last game?

Nope he had surgery this week

[CountryRoyal]

Still think we might salvage it but we certainly don’t deserve to.

[Lower West]

The result of the rot that started in the club many years ago. The league tables don't lie. C'est le vie.......

We didn’t need to win necessarily. May have been preferable, but hindsight could say it was better going to the last game knowing we had to win.

To be fair, even on crutches he could be a step up

Ummm..... what??

[Vision]

Honestly thought the first half was the best we've played in a while , certainly in terms of intent, tempo and closing down.

Unlike many I thought Hoilett was excellent until he inevitably ran out of steam and Hendrick kept making 3rd man runs which we missed on several occasions.

It's so difficult to try to be progressive when you've spent most of the season chasing shadows without the ball and aimlessly lumping it in the general direction of a striker on the rare occasions we do have it.

All may not be lost but it feels like it is. However what I saw today was, for the most part, a team that was more lacking in confidence as much as lacking in ability.

Seriously, if you had a choice between playing for a draw or playing for a win, with this frail side, what would you prefer?

Like scoring in the first minute and trying to hang on - we could never do it.

Best just to go for broke, full throttle.

NGW’s crossing and long throws looked our best route to score - and we were 1 down

Hendrick was absolutely all over the place and not in a good way. He seemed to be centre forward half the time. Like some over enthusiastic u10 player. I really won’t miss him despite having respect for his effort etc

Thought Azeez did pretty well considering the situation and being shifted about. Almost scored a nice goal, decent cross for Casadei at the end as well.

I like Casadei but stuff just doesn’t seem to come off for him very often. He’ll be a good player though

Correct on yiadom, he had a good day

[Snowflake Royal]

Still think we might salvage it but we certainly don’t deserve to.

We failed to beat a poor Wigan side at home where we have some semblance of form.

We have to beat a Huddersfield side who've lost just 1 in 6, away where we are utterly abject.

It's done. It's been done for a while.

[Royal_jimmy]

Still can't believe fans are happy with a draw against a dog shit Wigan side
