What's annoying me is Mowbray is using Covid as his get out of jail free card for everything Form-covid Hard to do deals - Covid Not achieving his targets -covid He is being allowed to do it by the media though. The owners might even accept it. It's a load of shite.

A lot of fair points there. No, I have never heard of wyscout. The club's you mention there, we have a long way to go to be used in the same context as them. Kaminski was a good signing. Other than that, since this recruitment department was set up and lauded by Mowbray, he has signed more lads from Boro than Europe. I get the feeling it's just for show as far as Mowbray is concerned. Like a lot of things, he talks about it like we are serious / a proper run club, but the reality is we aren't. Hence the current situation.

Ya, Magloire seems to have turned into Nesta in some fans eyes since he has been away. Looks decent, but nothing to suggest we should rely on him and the others and expect results

It might not be so bad if there was a plan..Mowbray should be gone and a new manager should be in evaluating what we need now. We have good young players. The freed up wages could be used to good effect. Alas, this club is a basket case and we are sleep walking into a relegation battle next season. Worse we will lose academy players and generally never see the academy crop that we have now reach their potential. Some other clubs will benefit.

Not a good player, let's be honest. Major ball dropped on this signing. Couldn't see another manager starting him Could you imagine McCarthy or Warnock paying him? I certainly can't. We all cling to anything half decent he does, but he will never score 15 a season at this level, 10 even. His pea shooting is a disgrace. He strikes me as being very mentally weak as well.

It's actuay kind of sad that he has over stayed his welcome to the point a lot of good he did, is now been forgotten. Let's be honest though. He's waiting on a pay off. Every manager does it. He's not going to resign The difference is most owners are clued in and offer the "mutual termination" fudge. Not these pricks though.

They have it easy under him. Holiday camp training. Nice wages. No pressure. It's a viscous circle. I'm sure some players want him out, but he has his crew. He's clever like that. As you touched on, we would have been better off playing our own players ,rather than loan in young lads. We gain nothing from this set up.

Do you honestly belive the part in bold? Anyway, even if they are looking at players. Why would it be for a manager who won't be here? Why is he even talking about transfers? 1 win in 13 and none of us would be surprised if he is still here game one next season. It's a shambles. On the recruitment piece. Kaminski was good, but apart from that last summer was awfully poor. Now the head of the department is gone. We have a lame duck manager and half the squad are out of contract. This could get very bad and go wrong very quickly. It could be Coyle all over again. Of the potential players you mention, I don't know anything about the first 3. Lundstram is surely out of our wage structure. Reach is useless, the odd screamer, that's it. Fletcher, absolutely useless, worse than Gallagher. Hugill,probably out of our price range, not a Mowbray type striker and for all we know he will still be managing the team next season. There is a huge amount to be done. We have no head of recruitment and a manager the fans dont want and it seems neither do the players. I don't share your optimism currently. In my opinion things are more likely to go badly from here. Nothing in Venkys reign to date would suggest otherwise.

I mean nobody has any idea what they are thinking or planning re the manager. You can add recruitment because they don't even have a head of that currently and half the squad are out of contract. It's a shambles. Already at a disadvantage. Thems the facts.

If my aunt had balls, she would be my uncle!

They will be on Social media having banter by now no doubt

The entire management and senior playing staff are a disgrace. An embarrassment.

Agreed

Get this charlatan out. He had clearly de motivated the players to abysmal levels

He's too stubborn and pig headed to admit he's wrong. An idiot basically

The fact he gets game time at all suggests he gets preferential treatment

Get that amateur charlatan out. He is now undoing any good he did with this run and collapse

I would say that's surely it if we lose this, but it's not though ,is it?

That young whipper snapper

We must be on the worst run in the UK? If not Europe? Fucking Mowbray out

The worst performance of the season, has a lot of competition. I can't stomach watching anymore and listening to the manager after the games. Loved been able to watch on Ifollow. It's piss poor

I'm not watching today, but I witnessed some putrid displays this season. Even in games we won, like Rotherham

It's been like that pretty much all season , barring a the first maybe 11 games

He's versatile and not on a huge amount. Far bigger issues at play with this squad. Agree about the rest. Grim. Would be great if a new manager was looking at all of this now in advance of next season

Mowbray out
