den Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Personally I’ve never heard a rovers manager so negative about the ability of his own squad, so regularly downgrading the stature of his own club or the constant positivity towards every opponent we play. Why should fans have to listen to this claptrap? 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a fucking wanker this specimen is. After four years of Mowbray we are five years behind... Brentford. Progress. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USABlue Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 And Brentfords in history includes..,.... exactly, nothing. We are the famous Blackburn Rovers yet Mowbray wants us to aspire to be KIN BRENTFORD. Tony don't let the door hit you on the arse on the way out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There'll end having to be a 24/7 rota by the sound of things in order to let everyone cover everything. Hope the residents like all late night floodlights, oh and the extra vans in and out everyday carrying stuff that'll end up being stored at Ewood instead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1864roverite Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Without jumping the gun Mowbray is on about the model Brentford use, get young ones in, nurture and sell at high prices it’s nothing to do with the stature of the club 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

den Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 (edited) Mowbray has been downplaying the status of Blackburn Rovers since he’s been here @1864roverite Hes regularly saying the fans shouldn’t be expecting rovers to be competing with giants like - PNE for instance.

1864roverite Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Am no longer a fan of Mowbray and want him replaced but the model for Brentford is the only real way forward for Rovers in the future. They may not have a long term plan, I suspect they will disagree but the model and cash they have made, reinvested and will no doubt make more in the future isn’t a bad one. If Rovers aspirations are greater then major changes have to be made at the top. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's his condescending way of telling us he knows best, doing his utmost to accentuate the myth that unless you've played the game professionally you know nowt.

One of the reason we want to keep the training ground in tact is to bring our own players through the academy and sell them on if necessary.

John Williams told us time and time again this was the way forward for Blackburn Rovers and he wasn't wrong. Nobody is saying we shouldn’t bring youth through. They should supplement the first team, not totally replace it. Venkys sold an entire Premier League squad in order to replace it with our own youngsters to sell on and invest the proceeds in the first team - 11 years ago. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he talks like this publicly, what on earth is he like in training, around the club etc. I can well imagine we don't need a sleep specialist ala fergie at Brockhall haha. 26 minutes ago, den said: Mowbray has been downplaying the status of Blackburn Rovers since he’s been here @1864roverite Hes regularly saying the fans shouldn’t be expecting rovers to be competing with giants like - PNE for instance.

If Rovers aspirations are greater then major changes have to be made at the top. Is not the Brentford model the moneyball one? ie passed on collecting data and basing purchases on that more than the subjective norm. They have a real scouting system in place, unlike us, as they turn out player after player, and we sign 1 period. We need a proper leader, best interests, vision in place and everything geared towards putting out the best team possible. I dunno why but I swear I saw the same cat walk past me twice, a bit like de ja fu (sp), can't think why..... 8 minutes ago, Gav said: I'm sure every club in this league are aspiring to create the Brentford model, or at least the ones who are not relying on the Premiership £££££.
