The fact that hes down in Reading having that done would say to me hes more than likely out the door. (Hopefully!) Although he didnt show up for it haha That's because he's from Reading and his family live there. (We go to the same barbers down South) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admiral Nelsen Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Bit concerning to hear some of the change of emphasis on defenders, but to be fair it's not numbers we need in my view, it's the right partner for Lenihan which is the real emergency. One centre half of the right quality could make all the difference. Also, reading between the lines, TM saying that he liked the balance of the side at the end of last year can probably be read as Rothwell & Travis are starters. Probably should go without saying, but nice to see some evidence that Mowbray is thinking the same. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sense is subjective, to be fair. Only 4 days until our first pre-season match of the season and just over a month until our first match of the season!

The poster said Davenport will be like a new signing, which is a completely reasonable statement. Within seconds he was rounded on by 2 of the usual suspects. Discussion is becoming totally shut down here due to the same posters moaning over and over again about the same things, along with literally anything to do with the club. It's boring and I can only imagine not inviting for new posters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Giving kudos to mowbray for getting out of a poor league one is one of the reasons we are in the position that we are" That is one of the most ridiculous statements I have read on here and that is some achievement. Ridiculous on many, many levels. Exact same teams? Exact same players? Managers? Coaches? Suppose football doesn’t change a lot in a year. Mowbray got credit in the bank for the promotion season by venkys and most supporters, had he not he would surely have been sent packing during that outrageously bad spell last season, hence the reason we are not progressing as we still have mowbray and his tired ways of operating. Making yourself sound rather silly on this board, I would go and have a lie down, your making arguments with everyone and talking so much rubbish. Amusing but embarrassing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that Davenport will be like a new signing, I haven't actually had chance to see him play yet, as I missed the last game of the season. But then, to be fair mate, you're replying to everyone you don't agree with trying to tell them why you think they're wrong (which is your right, obviously). It's all just different opinions, I wouldn't get as stressed about it, it's only pixels on a screen..... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empty vessels do indeed make the most noise. Relegation, so we couldn’t finish higher than the previous season, then with biggest budget, scraped past the powerhouse that is Shrewsbury. Not winning title when we had opportunity to. When flying high in January he pressed the self destruct button and we plummeted to being the laughing stock of the league at one point. Not addressing our defence in how many windows? But aye he is marvellous, totally going to be promoted in 2045! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roversfan99 Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 I still struggle to accept that the gap between mathematically confirming safety and Mowbray flying to India with no idea as to his budget isnt a hindrance in terms of being proactive earlier in the market. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roversfan99 Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Ethan Pinnock, a very good centre back is going to Barnsley. Another potentially good signing going elsewhere. And all these "negative/moaning" accusations are what stops conversation, not anything else. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
