davulsukur Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 He's now hit Coyle/Ince levels of organisation. We are managed like a pub team. "We'll get Taylor on because he comes to training every week." "Sam, I know you wanna play upfront but you've not paid your subs all season, so you're on the right wing" "Sam, just play right back for a bit, to let Elliott attack. Its his birthday this week, cheers" "Tommy K, you're on throw ins" "Jarrad, I know you're hanging out of your arse but you'll have to start at CB, because you're a lanky streak of piss" 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasta Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 If normal service is to be resumed, it's around about now that those fans who say it's time for Mowbray to move on if we don't get in the play offs this season start moving the goalposts.

skous18 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 We have come to the point where Mowbray needs to go. I know that from an outside point of view it might look like he is doing well in the small Blackburn Rovers football club, but if he stays for any longer, he risks losing completely the respect that he had undeniably won of pretty much 80-90% of the supporters. If this charade continues he could easily be remembered as another Keane or Coyle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoversClitheroe Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Useless. I'm genuinely embarrassed to be Blackburn Rovers fan with Mowbray in charge. All my mates now taking the piss too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grinder Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 the problem with his softly softly evolutionary approach is that by the time he has bought a few more pieces of his jigsaw someone else has nicked all the bits he has put together - itll never come to fruition and maybe he doesn't want it to- he's not good enought to manage at a level above and I suspect he knows it...

joey_big_nose Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 His body language was really weird tonight, utterly passive (even more so than normal). I'm totally guessing but made me feel something is going on behind the scenes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBlue Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 (edited) Avoided this place during the poor form because I got tired of being one of the few contrary voices. Call me an idiot (almost feel like one with how shit some of this has been) but I still am happy for him to stay. Reason? The owners and pretty much every single thing since they came in. The rebuild job TM has done - The solidity, the stability, the focus on youth and sustainability, the integration of the academy, the INTEGRITY, and the squad that he has assembled (and PLEASE check our net spend I’m sick of hearing he’s had bucket loads of cash for our level) We know that it is easily lost. It is easily thrown away. Are there even any solid suggestions for a successor? I trust TM. He might not be the most exciting, or some tactical genius that can piss the championship (no one is). But at least it’s about the football with him. Lots to lose. But still a dice that is hot in the hand and tempting to throw right now.

Hoochie Bloochie Mama Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 (edited) It's live on SKY so he has to act bemused by the performance because that suggests we don't normally play like that. He's not stupid, he knows exactly what he's doing. He also does the 'nice, humble, honest working-class guy' schtick at every club.

There is no getting away from home poor we been, even winning in january I think we have looked way off. Give Mowbray the season, he deserves it, and see where we end up. Pointless chopping it up now, wont get us to EPL all of a sudden. If we are miles off end of season, then I couldn't argue trying someone new.

Ewood Ace Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Honestly I think the only thing keeping him here is the good pay packet he is picking up which will probably his last big one before retirement. He looked like a man tonight who had no interest whatsoever and would rather have been anywhere else. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I say, victim of his own success. It wasn’t about the football FOR YEARS before Mowbray, in fact since the day they bought the club. If we think we are due an improvement and have ideas for who and why - then I’m certainly listening... but we know that we probably won’t get it. The vitriol and disrespect to the man on here sometimes is pretty nauseating and short sighted imo. But let it be known - imo we have looked utterly fucking well poor for the last couple of months, WAY below the capabilities of this squad. Shite situation all round.

If by some miracle he'd have hung on until until now he'd have been fired after tonight's game. It's over for him at Rovers. Come Monday morning we should be looking for the new guy.

Do we just have to contend ourselves with shit, shit and more shit because we may appoint another dead-leg? If that's the case I'm jacking it all in. It's a ludicrous argument. WE ARE BLACKBURN ROVERS! Everyone at Brockhall and Ewood hate Mowbray with a passion, they all think he's a complete dick. Can you not see that in everybody's body language week after week? The man sat motionless all match tonight, wrapped in a bloody snood. Do you not think he should have been stood in The Technical area snarling instructions, motivating and driving his team on? Course he should!! Just fuck off Mowbray, you are damaging our famous club and we've suffered enough in the past 10 years FFS. Just bloody do one!!
