I suppose it remains to be seen. He has done it in this league before, so whilst he's here I'm going to place my faith in him to try and do the same. I think it will become pretty apparent when he can't take us any further but now is not that time. Reading should be a big warning to him though that it could all go south quickly if he doesn't get his house in order now and in the summer.

I think it's pretty dangerous talking about changing manager. Let him attempt to fulfil what he says he intends to do, if he fails or worse takes us backwards then fair enough but overall a good job all things considered. We have a manager that the owners trust to invest in for once, I think people have lost sight of what state we were in before him and what state we could be in again if we change manager.

Bennett got the worst roasting I've ever seen from a pro footballer at Brentford. If someone is going to make mistakes then I'd rather it be one of our youth prospects that some bloke at the end of his career.

Is Davenport fit or what? Surely time to give him a game now and prepare him for next season.

Have to disagree with this. This is who he is as a player, take it away from him and he becomes like any other player on the pitch. Yes he can improve and get better but his ability and willingness to try things in possession is what makes him a good player.

I'm signing off for the season. As I said after Brentford, they've exceeded my expectations but I can't carry on rest of this season watching this dross and poor decision making from the manager. When the summer comes, he needs to stop being soft, be ruthless and get rid of the deadwood. He's given the league 1 players their chance as promised, they've done a job for us but if he actually wants to move forward as he says in the media, he isn't going to do it with many of these players. Conway out, Smallwood out, Raya bench, Bell out, Williams bench. Build a midfield around Joe Rothwell, he is that good, I hope he see's this. Stick with this lot and we'll really struggle next season. We've riden a wave earlier on in the season, if we don't try to improve in these key positions then we'll struggle just like we have done tonight. This should be a clear warning sign to Mowbray at whats to come, I hope he see's it else we're going to end up in big trouble.

So, who was that lad who just came on for Rovers and played that pass? Looks pretty decent, perhaps we should play him more?

Been saying for a while, not good enough for first choice.

Not according to what he says in the press.

In my opinion. Then Mowbray subbed him for Rothwell and left on Conway... As you do.

What on earth has Mowbray done tonight? He's had an absolute mare. Takes off our best player for Rothwell and leaves Conway. Has he gone mental? Why bring Graham on this late? Just make both subs at the same time if you're going to make them. I dispair.

Lazy or just spends less time flagging it around the pitch and actually wants to get on the ball and control possession? If we're playing like of Smallwood and Conway for their work ethic we might aswell sign f*cking Mo Farah.

GET F*CKING ROTHWELL ON!!!!! JESUS CHRIST MAN.

Sitter aside I think Brereton has been good tonight so far.

Brereton has to score there. Great first touch awful second.

Agreed.

Reality check Mowbray. Talked in the LET about giving Rothwell a run in the side and then picks Conway, made himself look a right d*ckhead. Then not only that, his favourites get a run out and we're losing to Reading. Learn some lessons man, it's about time. Are we developing Nyambe or not? He's not a teenager anymore, he needs to play. Dan Butterworth is 20, he's older than Brereton, are we loaning him out or are we going to develop him and give him a chance? I wouldn't mid losing to reading if chances on these younger lads were being taken but he's absolutely bottled it here... Regardless if we get something out of it.

I never want to see Amari Bell in Rivers short again. Absolutely awful.

I think that's harsh, Brereton has played well.

For f*ck sale Conway, square it! Brereton needs to stay forward. Tony needs to start learning some lessons and give over with the favouritism... It's starting to do my head in.

I actually think he looks more confident and self assured recently when I've seen him. To be fair, I don't want to see him TRYING to make things happen, I want to see people getting beyond him and giving him service rather than wandering around ineffective areas of the pitch.

Many things i don't understand. Why Bennent is still at right back at the expense of vital experience for Ryan Nyambe.... No idea.

Awful decision to play Conway instead of Rothwell... I really don't get his use of him. Highly frustrsting.

I'm sure Dack loses the ball fairly often too. You have to allow your more creative players to make mistakes. Very frustrating situation, one of the more exciting players I've seen at Ewood.

If the aim is promotion then we have some way to go I think. After last week it was obvious Bennett shouldn't be first choice right back, TM said so the day before. So of course the right decision was to leave him at right back and drop Bell instead (wtf?). Bennett didn't play badly yesterday to be fair but this favroutism of picking certain players ahead of better or developing players really irks me at times. Nyambe needs to play, learn and be allowed to make mistakes, especially now at this stage of the season, the season is over for us anyway so we might aswell play our young players. Same goes for Rothwell, fair does to TM for signing him up but come on mate, have some bloody faith in him. Looked good again when he came on yesterday, what does he have to do get a start? When I'm seeing likes of Conway and Smallwood playing ahead of him I'm left scratching my head. Rothwell has turned in far better performances in his few starts than either of those 2. He's simply a better player, so why not play him? I just don't get it. An unpopular opinion I have... I'm not convinced David Raya should be our out and out 1st choice keeper. Don't get me wrong, I like the lad, good shot stopper but he's pretty quiet on the pitch and I don't find him a particularly commanding presence. There's something about him that just seems to make a us a bit soft. I wasn't left to dissapointed yesterday. After last week I'd accepted that it's season over for us, we don't have anything to play for really and we're going achieve what we set out to do... Which has exceeded my expectations. What I want to see now is more faith in the likes of Nyambe, Rothwell, Brereton, Chapman and maybe even Dan Butterworth.
