If Mowbray makes Bennett captain over Lenihan tomorrow I will be fuming. It would be up there with Coyle making Lowe captain He's going to do it though, isn't he?

I wonder this also. They are nearly all on social media and more than 50% of rovers fans posts, on Twitter at least, have been giving out about the defence. I don't think Mulgrew is on Twitter though, but the others have definitely seen it. It's odd though because, publicly at least, what Mowbray said about "new defenders coming" was the most scathing attack and that was months ago...

It was 100% a fall out. Can't see any other reason for the quick exit

I can't see beyond him being told he wouldn't be first choice and not liking it. To happen so late in the day definitely confirms it wasn't planned. What do you mean by social media ban? As for the plaudits, I think there isn't generally an official goodbye when a player leaves on loan... It is a pity he didnt stick around and contribute to the squad, but I think even that alone shows he wasn't the right captain if he wan't prepared to put his ego aside.

Pity Mulgrew didn't go somwhere else though. Wigan... Eugh

I would take sky announcing anything with a pinch of salt. They linked us with signing Silla on loan from QPR yesterday.

I know I was saying Tosin shouldn't have started last week due to him just being in the door, but I would put Cunningham in due to him being so much better than Bell. Nyambe Lenihan Williams Cunningham Hon the Irish lads

Pity, I was hoping he would stick around as a squad player. Pretty sure we will look to get a free agent in now. Anyway, overall, I'm happy the window is now shut.

Mulgrew obviously wanted out after being told he wouldn't be starter. Ballsy by Mowbray, but we are a CB short now. Hopefully a few good free agents out there. I would take Lenihan, Williams and Tosin, but we need to factor in potential injuries

Lack of a timely announcement about Cunningham? What do you mean?

Ya, I wonder where Reed would have been played if he came back. Centre half? ?

Ya, seems that way. Bidding for Reed and not for a centre half , whilst also letting Mulgrew go is peculiar. I hope this Tosin guy is very good.

Reed would have been class, but would it not have been a mad one? Does it not also suggest we have more money. So why haven't we signed 1 defender yet?

Is it? From my reading on twitter fans at every club are moaning about who they haven't signed. Bristol City have done well. Fulham obviously too. Outside of them I don't see who else would be ecstatic.

He isn't according to me who knows where he plays

How Mowbray treated and spoke about him is wildly exaggerated in the negative. Reed got to play some great football here. Hence why he has now earnt a move to Fulham

I just don't get why we would let our two most first team ready young lads in Magloire and Wharton go if we are going down the youth route. Makes no sense at all...

Nope, he is 100% not a CB

Mowbray can hardly say we won't win games with Magloire, but leave us with Grayson as back up. Can he? Can he.....?

I think it is safe to say Mowbray and Mumgrw had a heart to heart. They may have even had a fight

Well I think it's great that Lenihan is now club captain...

Now

Ha ha, that's gas. Well not surprising when you consider the absolute slating he has gotten off rovers fans. Mad stuff.

Nice man. Ya the cinematography in those movies is sublime. Have you watched Ken Burns series on the west? It's class.

Maybe, but if he is here, that would suggest those fears have been elevitaed. Nice choice of movie earlier by the way. Classics.
