    And i'm laying the blame at Hecky's door unfortunately.
    The persistence with the top two pairing of Winnall and Armstrong is worrying. Hopefully we see Winnall drop to the bench on Friday, because it just doesn't work.
    Bradshaw deserves a proper run.
    Changes were clearly needed at half time, but unfortunately that's been Hecky's down fall lately, waiting far too long to change things up.
    Kent needs sidelining, he was a liability today.
    We were unbalanced today, with a right footed full back playing left back, it really showed.
    Very disappointing we didn't take all 3 points, Wigan showed absolutely nothing to suggest they will avoid the drop.
    Morsy straight back in on Friday, Scowen was okay, but Morsy has better vision and can pick out that killer pass we lacked today.

    I just can't see why Winnall gets dropped and Armstrong doesn't?

    Armstrong has the quality to make something from nothing, which he did a couple of times today.

    He did it once. Was unlucky. Ironically it came from one of the few times he could be arsed to close down.

    Not a fan

    Why not Marly and Bradshaw up front - don't think this has happened yet

    Did you see something in Winnall's performance that led you to think he should be picked for the next game?

    Worked hard, won a few balls in the air. Wasn't great but then again the service was gash.

    Winnall is our player and will be here in Jan, Armstrong won't be so if he's not firing which he isn't, we should persist with our players.

    We should pick the best team from the players available to us. Now. To do owt else would be idiotic.

    Fair point. I jut don't think Armstrong is offering anything.

    He keeps blasting it over the bar.

    But then Winnall misses more than his fair share too.

    We need a big hold up/nod-em-in bloke as an alternative.

    Otherwise we might go down despite having a team that's good enough to stay up.
