47er Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Mowbray seems to be actively flogging Armstrong. “Future Premier League player.” And all that. I wonder if his summer recruitment programme depends on it? I think so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if his summer recruitment programme depends on it? I think so. Having failed miserably in his target of the top 6 now for 3 years he will have to arm himself with something else to try to keep favour with the Indians. By telling them about how much players are now worth or indeed selling Armstrong for good money to a top flight club he will be able to lean back on that and promise more to come if they stick with him. He's not as clever as he thinks he is. But he's clever enough to have worked out what he needs to do here to keep things ticking over nicely with the owners and keep him playing football manager for another year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you not find it odd that there wasn't some huge gushing tribute to him yesterday with it being his 4th anniversary?

RoversClitheroe Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Had a dream that Mowbray, Venus and Waggot were gone. Woke up to the harsh reality that in fact the nightmare continues 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrouchingNunhiddenCucumber Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Do we think 5 losses in a row will force Venkys hand? Or given the amount of attention they pay us will they look at the amount of injuries we have and conclude Mr Lemon Drizzle is doing the best he could in difficult circumstances? It boils my piss that were saddled with owners that are happy to plough in £200m but don't appear to give a fuck. Surely we're the only club in the country in this position?! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He specified that the 4th anniversary cake for the photoshoot must have the icing and marzipan on the inside and sponge coated with jam on the outside, needless to say much like his on field fetish for things out of position it didn't turn out to well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there are larger concerns than the football at the moment. Venky's won't want to rock the boat whilst their sultans of spin have work to do. Estates don't build themselves.

If only the clowns would listen to people who know what they're doing, not the vultures they have over the last decade, then they'd understand they would make more in one season in the Prem than selling off Brockhall and that Mowbray ain't going to get us there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only assume the club have decided that as we are failing miserably on the pitch that it isn't appropriate. I thought Waggott would have piped up. Is he dead? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they really still 'misguided' though or they wilfully visiting this upon us? Of course, if they were, it would beg the question: Why the hell are they injecting money into the club?

Couldn't agree more. But as one of the club's sponsors wrote on this site only 24 hours ago 'we aren't getting to the Prem'. That's the mentality from the club, and those that support everything it does. We have been dumbed down to a lower mid-table Championship club. It helps when selling off the family silver. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he has pulled out wins when he has needed to previously, but we're sub level shit at the moment, worse than it's even been under him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
