we haven't scored at home the last 3 matches

Poor team selection, we were set up to fail, hoof ball, no creativity in first half. Not much better in second.

A poor match all round. Wigan came for a 0-0 and it's frustrating that we let them get it - we only needed one goal and they'd never have got back into it. The ref was consistently inconsistent, missing obvious fouls right under his nose yet somehow seeing the most marginal infractions from 30/40 yards. But the most annoying aspect was Town's play. The fact we struggled that much without Murphy is a real concern, but we should have had the tactical nous to work out that, if the long punt upfield didn't work the first 20 times, it might be time to try plan B rather than go for another 20.

Awful. Obviously the wrong system without Murphy. Just lump, lump, lump. But what can you expect if you leave out your more talented players for workers.
On this performance more quality needed if we want to finish in the automatic promotion places.

Wigan came to frustrate and defend, they closed down the midfield and stopped any real flowing football developing. We were collectively having an off day with only Hunt, Tabb and Bru really showing any real spark in the first half and nobody standing out after half time.
A lot of aimless long balls forward, which never really worked with the size and strength of the Wigan side, but we seemed to have no clue how to change the way we were playing.
Overall a poor display with the only real positive being we didn't lose!

One of the dullest matches I have seen in 40+ years following the Town. Wigan clearly came for a point, and wasted time whenever given the opportunity throughout the match. Ref was poor (when did we last get a decent Ref at FPR?), but the most disappointing factor was that we failed to break down a poor, albeit hard-working, Wigan side. We by-passed the midfield all too frequently, a tactic that may work with the power of Murphy up front, but not suited to Noel & Didz, or to Freddie.

Don't want to end on a downer, so let me add that Mick has worked wonders with limited resources, and that I'm delighted with the season so far. COYB.

Abject performance, possibly the worst I have ever seen. To persist with long balls when we had no target man is tantamount to stupidity. The only things that matched a terrible game were the terrible weather and terrible match officials. Oh and perhaps a poor team selection against a bottom side which showed no adventure. Hard to pick a man of the match but on a poor poor day probably Scuse

Biggest complaints apart from the long ball garbage has to be the baffling substitution to bring Parr on at what I think was wide left, subbing the wrong striker - Didz looked disinterested and lethargic, and not starting with Bishop. This team is not good enough to be and sustain top twain my opinion and it needs a quality midfield, which of course will only work if we pass through it and not over it.....oh and please Chambers to CB...not singling anyone out but Smith had another poor game and looked jittery.
