As someone else said, sack this clown and bring in Duff. We're going down, might as well make it entertaining (and uncomfortable for the hierarchy)

Bring back Sam Gallagher to play right back

True but we dont have anyone who can attack down the left at all...

It’s flaringly obvious that we need cover for Alebiosu since we don’t have anyone else available who can play (well) in that position. But again that would make too much sense.

They couldn’t even tell Mowbray if they were renewing his contract or not when he had about 4 weeks left. He wouldn’t touch us again.

Fully expected after Ismael said yesterday that Alebiosu wouldn't be leaving 😂

He was spot on. We are run by a bunch of rats from Pune, not Jack Walker and his team on the ground who only wanted good this club. Do you disagree?

He should be gone now. A win on Tuesday just means they won’t touch him until after the Norwich game on Saturday. And that’s just time and games wasted. It’s just a carbon copy of 2017.

I did actually say last night that Ismael is SO bad even Mowbray coming back on a short term basis until the end of the season would be preferable. Find it strange that someone's suddenly flagged it up after I mentioned it but I cant take credit for it (I don't think) That wasn't to say it's what I want. At all. Just an illustration of how bad Ismael is imo. Worst since Jim Iley. Going to gather my thoughts and address this in detail.

We can.

Mowbray would do a better job than Ismael for the rest of the season. If that’s what they plan to do I can get behind it as we can’t carry on like this.

Can we leave talk of Duff until Venkys have fucked off please? Don’t want him getting sullied by these twats.

Like I said in the Hull thread, bringing in Mowbray is desperate stuff. We have no Dack, or Mulgrew to lead or inspire. And Tony is stale, past it and a useless choice.

Hey venkys. My favourite player is DeNeve. If you sell him I'd be so mad!

Tronstad as a false nine. Breath it in lads and lasses

I find quantum physics complicated , but unlike Val I recognise my D in GCSE physics as a limit of myself and dont apply for physicist jobs

Still waiting for Rev’s appearance 🍿

Defends would struggle to match the pace of a front two of De Neve and Kargbo. Plus, if we start them both central it gives them more time to think before they run off the pitch

https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/19898505.tony-mowbray-explains-blackburn-rovers-didnt-sign-striker/ “We had opportunities, there were No.9s out there and the really interesting thing is that clubs are phoning us and asking if we want to take this player, Premier League clubs. “They have to fit into the way we play, why would we sign a Premier League centre forward if we don’t play with a centre forward at this moment, and he can’t do the running of a wide striker, doesn’t chase full backs, so we’d be playing with nine men rather than 10 out of possession? “Why when we’re doing so well at the moment would we throw that away and do something totally different? “We tried to recruit players to fit the system.” What a massive cock up that was.

Did you mean to put roads or drains Capt?

Mowbray loves playing players in wrong positions, hard no from me. I feel like ismael should be replaced but not with Mowbray

Just needs a bit of imagination if we end up looking for a new manager, although that rarely happens here Middlesbrough found a decent manager from abroad, Lincoln appointed Leeds u21 manager and they are flying, other assistants have done well such as Arteta. It just takes some thinking instead of fishing in the same washed up pond! Bloody John Terry would be better than what we put up with now

Just reminiscing on some of these bold decisions Mowbray was addicted to making. Wonder which players he'll play out of position the next time round? Anyone for De Neve as false nine?

I am afraid we’re going down, with or without VI. Our next two are vs #24 owls and @#19 Norwich. If Rovers won both, and there is no movement on the table immediately above us, that’s only good for 18th. The next three (@QPR, PNE, Bristol) will surely drop us right back down.

I don't think anyone has forgotten the good work that Mowbray initially did as manager, but that goodwill certainly bought him enough time to grow complacent and stink the place out. And insulting comments like this didn't help when he came under fire: “I hope the supporters understand where the football club is in the history of the football club at this moment. It isn’t Blackburn Rovers of 1995 competing and fighting at the top of the Premier League."
