  1. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/apr/01/qpr-sack-manager-steve-mcclaren-miserable-run-championship Holloway enjoying a slice of schadenfreude at McClaren's expense.
  2. Where's that from? Can't find it on the official twitter?
  3. It's a sad day. I'm choosing cycling over using my ST to watch Mowbray's plodders struggle to string passes together, put crosses in or attack with any conviction. My mind was made up when I saw that he was sticking with the same players and probably tactics that have won 1 game in 10. There's absolutely no reason not to play Buckley, Butterworth or Chapman from the start - not all of them, just one to add some interest to a horribly dull team. But no, Tony has 'human qualities' like loyalty which are apparently more important than results on the pitch. FYI Tony, nobody gives a f*@k about your values. They want a team that entertains and wins, not surrenders every week. Mogga-don Mowbray Out.
  4. Link or is that an interview still to be published?
  5. They 'hounded out' a good Championship manager getting top 10 finishes who was working on a shoestring. I hope that was part of your ponderings.
  6. He's signed for FGR https://the72.co.uk/128242/former-blackburn-rovers-trialist-pens-permanent-deal-league-two-side/
  7. "Joe Rothwell deserves to play in front of Chapman" - Mowbray Rothwell has made 6 starts. Rothwell never plays. That's how little chance Chapman has of playing. Another in the long line of non-contributing Mowbray signings. He's on about recruitment in the LT today. He's lining up a load of players he'll never play.
  8. Bizarre interview. He won't play Chapman because he would take the place of Rothwell, who doesn't play anyway. The man is an idiot.
  9. I understand none of his 'message'. We aren't living within our means, we're spending £7m on a kid at the same time as recording a £17m loss. I bet Mowbray can't believe his luck.
  10. https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/rovers/news/17548903.simon-smith-every-player-must-give-their-all-for-the-shirt/ He's surpassed himself this week ?
  11. Who on earth is that Peter Reid/Coyle mashup in yer avatar?
  12. What is the expectation? If he fails to deliver what?
  13. Good point about Mowbray. In his time here he hasn't brought in a single good defender. Downing and Bell are average at best, especially at Championship level, and the likes of Hart and Caddis are L1 at best. Unless that trend is reversed and we bring in at least 3 good Championship-quality defenders (and a GK) next season will be painful.
  14. Chaddy has always been a big fan of 4-3-3.
  15. He's certainly floating the idea that Dack is dispensable if Mogga goes to a new formation. 4-3-3 is all the rage at the moment cos Lpool play it... and England. Its like when everyone started playing 4-2-3-1 when Jose rocked up in England.
  16. https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/rovers/news/17545906.rovers-boss-on-midfield-goals-and-possible-formation-switch/ Tony's got his tactics truck out again. He always get its out when things aren't going well. Opium of the people. 3 at the back is out, and possibly 4-2-3-1, it's now all about 4-3-3. Gareth Southgate does it cos Tony's seen it on tele. Not until next season though cos players find it difficult to change formations mid-season.
  17. We got the legendary Howard Kendall from Stoke. They've had four nil-nils in a row. Rovers 0 - 1 Stoke. A shrug and a biscuit.
  18. Harsh. It's not all Mulgrew fault.
  19. https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/rovers/news/17544068.versatile-defender-pens-contract-extension-at-rovers/ This lad any good?
  20. The logic is that he had no proper CB's so he went for safety in numbers. Fair enough really.
  21. The people have spoken. Mogxit.
  22. Mowbray and McClaren on similar runs. Mowbray can count himself lucky that we have disinterested owners and a boardroom with his old Coventry pal in it.
