RoverDom Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Got to go for me now, sick of how many times we've got within a sniff of the play offs and then gone an abysmal run of form. I've found it really hard following rovers the last two seasons, rarely excited by a starting line up and not excited by a win because it ultimately counts for nothing when we throw away all the hard work down the track.

Backroom Silas Posted June 30, 2020 Backroom Share Posted June 30, 2020 Enough's enough. I don't wanna end up disliking the guy, but much more of this, and that's where it's heading. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backroom DE. Posted June 30, 2020 Backroom Share Posted June 30, 2020 Every manager has a lifespan at whatever club they're at and Mowbray has reached his. He had a big chance this summer to seriously get us into playoff contention and he completely blew it. We've been left weak in numerous positions across the pitch, either because the players brought in aren't good enough or have never been used in the right way. I fear for what comes next under the idiots in charge, but Tony is done here. Unfortunately I'm not convinced he or anybody above him realises that yet. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazza Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 If he'd played youngsters to give them a chance I would have understood losing. But all the old men and useless ones in the side? He has to go. In fact the whole club needs to be re-arranged from top to bottom. But that won't happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomphil Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 I'm telling you all now that with the way things might go in terms of finance we'll be starting next season again with Mulgrew. Williams and Bell in the back line. Bennett shoehorned in somewhere and Samuel given a new deal. He hasn't got either the finances or the spine to get rid of a lot of those. Number one priority for him is looking after everybody. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was a rich person/family, why would I not need value for money? Why are they not asking serious questions about what their eye-watering investment actually gets them? I'm no Loon apologist, but there must be a limit to their patience and I fear at some point they will pull the plug. Next year if they allow TM to continue as is. Where will that leave our club. I still don't know why they are here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why those who have stuck by through this Venkys shit-show are starting to lose interest. It’s a more ‘pleasant’ version of the Kean situation. A kick in the teeth but with a Werthers Original to suck on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simongarnerisgod Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 im`e starved of watching attacking football,i just want genuine wingers,2 strikers up front,a solid back line,a goalkeeper who is`nt a flake and 2 full backs who can fly up the wings,give us some excitement please,i don`t care about promotion it`s not going to happen anytime soon,but i just want to see some ATTACKING FOOTBALL? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoverKyle Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Get him gone. I can't keep watching these teams he puts out. You don't need to be involved in football as a profession to see what he's doing wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't know why they are here. They have half an interest i think that's the main problem. Most of the time they just won't be arsed what's happening but when they take an interest and ask questions we probably suddenly get a reaction from the manager. I just don't think they are that bothered that's why it's easy street and when a manager has been here long enough to see how it works they just play it to their own advantage. The void between here and India remains huge for a host of reasons. The inbetweener messenger man is either thick as pigswill or on such a good number himself that he doesn't want to risk by rocking their boat. On Mowbray yes by and large he done a decent job but far from flawless yet if he did leave or get sacked you look at the squad and he's left us in a bit of a pickle. There'd be a hell of a hard job for the next guy to sort out really although he'd have some decent stuff to work with there is no proper defensive base no reliable goal scorer.........and probably no money ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claytons Left Boot Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Mowbray needed to get the spine of the team right and go from there. No need to be the best players in the division, just very good and importantly, consistent. Keeper, Centre Half, Central Midfielder and Forward. He has failed miserably. Never addressed the Keeper position, Centre Half sorted to a degree but best lad only a loanee and we don’t have the funds to buy, all midfielders flatter to deceive with none being consistent. Danny Graham been half decent up top but has had shelf life and is now way past his best. Completely spunked £12m on two cart horses to replace DG who, despite his age, is still better than either of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet Tony would have you believe that we play attractive, attacking football. We've literally just sat through 180 minutes of us lumping it forward to Armstrong or Holtby playing as a false 9. The mind boggles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proudtobeblue&white Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 The last two games, against, well not teams setting the division alight, have been abysmal. And all agree no fans is levelling up,"playing away" as a leveller. Not for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey_big_nose Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Spine of the team is decent - Lenihan, Travis, Dack, Armstrong. A few decent players around the squad - Holtby, Evans, Nyambe. But he's done himself by buying absolute and utter garbage strikers to play on the wing for £12M rather than sorting out the defence. Mistakes that big cost you your job. He's only got himself to blame. Hope Venjys fancy dipping into their pocket this summer for a new manager and at least half a dozen new players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The spine of our team is easily top 6 quality, but that’s not even half the team. You’re right though, Tony can only blame himself, spending £12m on strikers without fixing CB#2, LB, any player with a remote bit of width. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
