Roverinbelfast Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I've backed him to the hilt. But certain things tonight has me thinking has he lost the dressing room. That was as toothless rovers performance as I've seen. The V's have backed him to the hilt. Surely they will demand better results than what is currently happening 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Just now, StevenSK said: Is it possible to have a poll to sack him? Yes but... 1) It’s too soon after a game 2) The same thing always happens: everyone lumps on for him to go and then over the course of a week gradually people change their votes as we scab a win 3) He’s going nowhere 4) The fact that he’s going nowhere makes it all too depressing Then a few new posters join and we go through this whole charade all over again. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevenSK Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Didn’t he say he would rather walk as he didn’t want to become a burden on the club etc? Time for that to happen, when will he judge whether he’s a burden? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cherry Blue Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Season is over. Only thing that would ignite it is for Tony to leave. Not bothered who came in just know there is no progress under a man who has lost the plot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoochie Bloochie Mama Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 99% of manager go stale after a few seasons. The difficult 3rd season as it's know in managerial circles. Tony's nearly done 4. He's had a good run but he's clearly out of ideas. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewood Ace Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 What has happened to Darragh Lenihan. In our relegation season he was one of the few bright spots and putting him at centre back was one of Coyle's few success stories. Lenihan has not improved in the last 4 years if anything he has gone back because now he is being expected to lead the defence and he isn't up to it as he is still rash and hasn't matured. You'd have though that as a very solid centre back himself Mowbray would have really improved Lenihan as a player. But just looking through all the defenders we have had since Mowbray became manager the only one who has improved is Nyambe. Ayala for years when fit has been one of the best centre halves at this level but bar one half at Brentford he has been shocking for us, Douglas came with a good reputation but is as bad as Bell (another who he hasn't improved) he obviously hasn't always been that bad and I've watched Fulham a few times this season and Tosin has looked a far better defender for them in the Premiership than he did here in the Championship. I don't know what he says or does with the defenders but he just doesn't seem to improve them and in some cases he regresses them. You won't get promoted unless you have a solid backline and he is just not capable of making one. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alcd Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Another defeat nailed on against struggling Brum. If the defence was poor with Nyambe and Ayala (and it was) just how will it cope without any recognised replacements? Just pray for a "circuit breaker" until the transfer window opens.

Roverinbelfast Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 If the venkys sacked now. It would be ruthless and would show that they have ambition and desire for the club. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alcd Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Now is the time to make a change allowing the in-coming manager the opportunity to shore up the defence (as Mowbray has proved utterly incapable in that respect for more than 2 years) and to look at reshaping the squad for next season. If he's a miracle worker the play-offs are still just about in reach-but now I'm just being silly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamst Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Huge fan of Tony, but I think he's taken us as far as he can go and should leave now. He's done some sterling work and would leave a new manager with a very decent squad. We are just clearly going nowhere now and he won't get us promoted. Occasional good streaky runs and optimism which takes us to the brink of the playoffs followed by a predictable nosedive when expectation rises. This has happened too many times to suggest that things will change now. Too many false dawns. The style of play is easier on eye and was exciting for a while early in the season, but its really ineffective now teams have figured us out and theres no plan B. The most annoying aspect of all though is the soft underbelly that he mentioned today. It has to be his responsibility and it has been as issue throughout his tenure. The challenge is to find a replacement who can instill this ruthlessness that we need to take us forward and keep the good players who clearly respect Tony. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once he realises he still can’t turn things around, it’ll be ‘Wharton’s steadiness’ at the back or similar. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
