You could be right Mike on Bowyer. Its been a tremendous response by the players and manager since we got beaten by the best team in the division playing with 10 men for over an hour. Some sides would have crumbled, we seem to have grown if anything, that performance against Sheff Utd was the best I've seen in years, superb stuff and the points are piling up. Tremendous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upside Down Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 (edited) I think we lack some experience on the pitch to be fair. It's great having the young players but sometimes you need a couple of older heads to keep things steady when we're under the cosh. That's what we had with Souness and it was a recipe for success. That said Mowbray should have sorted it out against Fulham so that we didn't get completely bummed like that at home.

Yep things were going bad against Fulham and his meddling made it two or three times worse. Having said that we'd only have been wheeling out Bennett and Evans then they'd be starting the next games and so on and so forth. If the odd pasting due to inexperience happens but we are rid of going around in the same old circles with managers pets i'll take it, for now.

Yeah that was the game where we were already 2-0 down before the red card and playing awful,it's right to say they've reacted well since that game but it shouldn't be forgotten how bad we were in the game. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spartakfenni Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 15 hours ago, Exiled in Toronto said: Or for the 99.999% of managers who aren’t as good as Shankly, Paisley, Ferguson, Dalglish and Clough. Or are you suggesting being as good as them is merely a matter of effort? No not effort, you can be a busy fool. It’s a matter of intelligence, as I said knowing your players, what makes them tick. If you need someone to do physiological profiles then you ain’t doing your job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only on brfcs can he be deemed ‘Moggasaurus’ one week and then given pelters for using modern management practices the next! 😁 Edited December 4, 2021 by Mattyblue 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of the top sports psychologists use this technique as it is extremely flawed. The top sports psychologists talk to the players, understand their uniqueness and idiosyncrasies and then tell managers how best to deal with each individual. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rigger Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 I do not know the ins and out of whatever methods Mowbray uses with his players. But I do know he has a tendency to spout a load of bollocks when giving a media interview. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAD. p.s. Also couldn't it technically be discriminatory to choose to employ people based on whether you personally like them because they fit into a mould of how you think people should be... as apposed to how good they are at the job Edited December 4, 2021 by Armchair supporter supremo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigdoggsteel Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 I think it's in everyone's interest to leave be now til the end of the season. If we make the play offs, he will have no shortage of offer. Win win Worth evaluating at the end of the season where we are at too 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backroom Madon Posted December 4, 2021 Backroom Share Posted December 4, 2021 He should have been sacked last season whilst we were on that terrible run, I think everyone could see and agree on that at the time, he himself looked and sounded like he was waiting for it too. But my God has he turned it around, fair play and I'm happy to hold my hands up and apologise. The players are quite obviously busting a gut for him and each other and we have a very realistic chance of making the playoffs now. If we keep playing as we are I even fancy us to give the top 2 a run for their money. COYB. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Frost Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 That was the most impressive team performance since Mowbray arrived here. 110% from every single player. Great atmosphere as well. Bring on Bournemouth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
