My guess is resting Dabo for Blackpool as he is nowhere near ready for 3 fixtures in a week, and also what the fuck has Walker got to do to get a chance

Yep Robins being careful with Dabo. and glad to see that. He’s been excellent the last 2 games so need to keep him fit for the run in. Happy with that team. McGuire gets his big chance, and Burroughs deservedly back in the team. With Walker and Sheaf on the bench we can change things if not going to plan

Bro. Stop

you must be having a nightmare given your nonsense round BNC and JWE and drivel round racism - they are just rather white (sorry shite) aren’t they

 

[SkyblueDad]

Pathetic

Take it you’d pick him then ?

 

[torchomatic]

Don't think I've ever seen a ground so empty so close to KO. Home end is basically empty.

 

[shmmeee]

No way is Dabo being rested. He’ll be injured. Real shame as he’s looked better last two games than most of the last two years.

 

[Hobo]

On the bench...its fine. He will come on.

3 games on the bounce would be a tough ask having just got fit.

Good squad rotation

Dabo on bench really?

I can see him being rested with the number of games and the cold. Nobody wants to see his hamstring snap in half.

 

[steve101]

Not great for Rose if not injured.

Let's hope it's as empty at the end of the game as well

 

[Greggs]

Dabo turned up late to Ryton apparently. Rocked up just as the coach was pulling away, he tried chasing the bus down but ended up pulling his hamstring. Double whammy.

 

[AOM]

On the bench for Wigan tonight

Is that true

 

[steve101]

If I was a betting man, I’d say he has a hamstring strain.

Though calf strains seem to be in fashion at the moment.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Just logged onto ifollow. They're watering the pitch ffs. Already looks heavy. Very strange, unless they want a bog to play on?!

Edit; where is the crowd?

 

[Londonccfcfan]

On sky sports into Morrison just said gyokores gas signed a new contract...I almost choked.

If that's the case then youve really got to question his future at the club.
The last two games have shown what an asset he is when fit and firing but being up to speed once in a blue moon is no good to us.
Crying shame because I really rate him.

Was told at paintballing he didnt have time for another 100 pellets before the bus left but he bought them anyway, some people.....

 

[JAM See]

Don't think I've ever seen a ground so empty so close to KO. Home end is basically empty.

Nick Eastwood says it's a sellout.

 

[Nuskyblue]

Social distancing still going strong in Wigan I see.

 

[clint van damme]

Crusty the pie looks like a composite of every person shown when the camera pans along the Wigan crowd

 

[Grendel]

using pellets at paint balling rather than paint balls would have resulted in an instant ban anyway. explains everything

becoming a bit Bobby Davro now mate

 

[Nick]

Come on then, need to get into them early doors.

 

[bigfatronssba]

I thought the game was supposed to be on the red button? I can’t see it

[Johnnythespider]

The pitch looks like the CBS after the 7s

 

[Hobo]

Not great for Rose if not injured.

With Hyam going and McFadz getting injured - he really hasnt took the opportunity to impose himself on the squad. At 27 he isnt going to get radically better. He just seems to be a coaster to me. I would rather see a 22 year old or under in there making mistakes but learning.

Rose too fragile mentally, Dabo too fragile physically. On our resources we just cant carry these players.

Doyle, Eccles, Burroughs, Howley, BNC and JWE all deserve the game time we can give them - because their future is brighter.

 

[MalcSB]

Are Clive and Oggy out in sympathy with Lineker?

 

[bigfatronssba]

Sky sports arena

Thanks!

 

[gspotgaz]

How is that not a yellow

 

[Johnnythespider]

Come on then Gus

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

Nice early flick by Maguire.

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

Great effort Hamer, saved by the keeper out for a corner

 

[MalcSB]

Good effort

 

[coop]

Could of slipped the ball to Vik there.

 

[mark82]

Unlucky there
