    Ballard looks half a yard off most of the time

    We've got more than enough to go on and win here.

    Got to cut out the sloppiness though.

    Simms needs to learn a hell of a lot. Has to protect that ball. He is big enough but his body shape, for a centre forward is miles off what it should be. How he has got to this point without that basic is beyond me. Coaches must be blind.

    Patterson has been brilliant last few weeks so I can forgive him his error tonight.

    This lot are terrible at the back, Pritchard and Stewart could have a field day if they’re ready to play and Mowbray is willing to play them.

    Time to re group and build on what we were doing so well.

    Disappointed with that last 10 minutes, but we're so much better than them on the ball and moving it around at pace that we'll cause enough problems to win the game if we just regain that composure and play our own game.

    I'm very impressed with Hume again.

    Should be winning, hope they don’t come out half asleep and let Wigan believe they can win this, have to come out firing and make sure we have more quality in final third as we have been struggling at times

    Wigan are terrible. Stewart and Prichard need to be on asap. Space all over. Just need some composure in the final third.

    Simms for Stewart has to be done now. Pritch for Ba as well. What a horrendous goal to concede. As a coach Simms would be getting it. Awful.

    These are awful. Unlucky not to be 4 up. Need to regroup now though we were flapping a bit last 10 mins. Need Stewart on. Simms has an eye for a goal but can’t lead the line Ball just bounces off him

    Should be out of sight, game now in the balance, still should see this out as they are so poor but we did not finish them off when we had the chance, Got to go again now can this line up do it and finish the job .

    It's more personality for me. I want him to get pissed off and throw himself about. Just seems to half arsed.

    No chance he makes any subs at half time. Need to be done by 60 tho

    What's Ba done to warrant being hooked at half time?
