Hoochie Bloochie Mama Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Is Pasha still 'liking' tweets backing Mowbray? What's his twitter name? I'd like to offer him my thoughts on the genius in the dugout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing Tony though, he'd just bring his car to a stop over three parking spaces then sit there and watch. In fact, that'd make it all possession and no penetration for about the 708th time this season... ....With a cup of Tea and a slice of Lemon Drizzle Cake. Is the gobshyte still here?

Not a lot of evidence to back up either claim though is there? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backroom DE. Posted April 4, 2021 Backroom Share Posted April 4, 2021 1 win since the end of January, 13 games, and he thinks we'll win enough games not to be concerned? Proper head in the sand stuff. I think we'll scrape enough points to survive but to be in that position from where we were is horrific. Mowbray's blasé nature about the whole thing is even worse. He's shown himself to be a manager with little to no real ambition and unfortunately that will affect the players as well. I've said it time and time again but we need a winner in the dugout who genuinely cares and gets upset if his team fail to perform and fail to win matches - not somebody who looks like he's on the verge of nodding off at any given point during the match. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldEwoodBlue Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 If we continue our amazing recent points per game ratio we will get another 4 points. 50 points normally keeps you up... apart from when Mowbray last got us relegated with 51. What lofty aspirations we now have thanks to Venkys. Couldn't be further away from Jack's "Think Big" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigdoggsteel Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Does anyone know a Phil Gregory? Is he on here? Hi Phil if so He's talking some nonsense on Instagram. Defending the manager in a ludicrously blinkered fashion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been concerned for a while. Still very concerned now. What really concerns me is the amount of people saying "we will be fine" even though there is no guarantee of that and no reason to suggest that barring other clubs not getting results too,that we will be.

Looking at the table, the chances of us being overtaken by all but two of the teams below us is very slim I'd say. We've probably done enough to drag ourselves over the line. It's certainly not where we should be, though, after 4 years with a manager who has had a very unique luxury of not having to sell anybody and being funded a decent amount every season to boot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but lose the next two and other results go against us and things could look far more perilous. I wouldnt fancy us getting a result if pressure was really on.

Bigdoggsteel Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Honestly we would have a better chance accumulating points if we played the under 23s with Barr as manager for the remaining games 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomphil Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Mowbray manages and spins his tombola to the law of averages. 'I'll keep doing this and it'll come off sooner or later' 'Surely we'll win a game or two soon we're only losing one nil' Never ever have a night at the casino with this mon but if he invites you for a game of cards grab it with both hands, you'll fleece him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldnt fancy us getting a result if pressure was really on. The only slight comfort in our present situation is that all of the teams below us are down there because they can't put together a decent string of results. It's possible one or two will do, as tends to happen towards the end of the season, but 7 out of the 9 below us? It isn't impossible but we would have to lose practically every one of our remaining games. Knowing our luck rather than scrape to safety we'll end up winning every remaining game, meaning absolutely nothing in the grand scheme of things but giving TM a boost going into the summer and ensuring he's in situ for another dreary campaign next season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, that would be very unsatisfactory. I just have a bad feeling we could end up in an unprecedented last day relegation.

onlyoneDuff Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 We have a flag with this man's face on it as if he's a Rovers legend! The Coventry three are taking the piss and are worse than Kean and his lot...prove me wrong! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post tomphil Posted April 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 4, 2021 No problem with people wanting to show their support for him but the flag thing was a club lead vomit inducing gimmick. Appearing for the cameras to wave towards India, it's a hark back to the shagnew crowd figure dressing up to protect certain people. Of course the usual suspects took to social media and a few on here defending it. Even Dalglish and Souness didn't get that treatment. Waggot OUT ! 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wave this huge flag of his boat race like he's some sort of Shankly style great leader or figurehead. Then he comes out and hides slumped way up in the seats as far from the touchline he can get without going into the stands. You really couldn't make it up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As with everything these days, it is all propaganda and bullshit. Something rovers have become very reliant upon. I find it absolutely repulsive that TM who has achieved the square route of bugger all at rovers is placed in a position of supposed worship. I'd wave a flag of Jack first and foremost but we cannot have our benevolent owners looking 2nd best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacknOry Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Flag was probably tm and waggots idea anyway. Who made the decision? All done to make Venkies think he is idolised. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
