It is.

Or one of them is called Bradley Johnson and is prepared to stick his neck out and state what everyone can see on the pitch.

It’s like a fork in hell actually.

Perhaps Mowbray is retiring and he is taking the out of contract players with him to tend to his garden.

Under 5 goals in premier league if he does play there, in my opinion. Good money though if we get that.

Hopefully it isn’t Larry!!!

I’m not too sure Mowbray is pally with the players. From what Darrenrover has said about Wharton, Travis and Brereton they certainly don’t seem to be. I got the impression as did others, that some players turned on him at half time in the Derby match. Johnson certainly eluded to that on Twitter and there were strong rumors of that in Jacks kitchen, after the Blackpool game.

The harmony in the camp has obviously gone. I know you weren’t prepared to push too much when speaking to a family member of one of the players recently, but clearly this is from the horses mouths.

In some ways you have to wonder if he actually wanted the sack. As we all know, being a football manager is different than working in the real world. Imagine working as long as Berg did and getting paid what he did. Mowbray may well have wanted a substantial pay off, having had enough a while back.

I honestly believe that players of that ilk and that era, only realise how privileged, they were, when the careers are over. They somehow think they will go on forever. I recently read Mark Patterson's book old school and he certainly eludes to that with his career.

Good to see that a moderator has spotted that this poster is talking in riddles. The fans have gone though enough, without being teased about something that seems totally at odds to what they are seeing. I guess you are saying, put up or shut up, only in a polite way.

I agree. It wouldn't be difficult to say several people have been told that the manger will be replaced with a big name in 2022. The training ground will be upgraded and we will lay a new pitch at Ewood. A new CEO who will communicate with the fans, will be appointed and the owners will attend 5 games next season. Without any specifics and with no sign whatsoever of anything improving, it is very hard to accept that anyone has been tod the real intentions and the usual lip service and dance up the garden path are being trotted out.

It called jobs for the boys and has been a feature at Ewood, for around 11 years.

I suspect that a fan could have been pulled out of the crowd and installed as manager and got us in the play offs, from that position.

A painful reminder to us all, but perhaps one to ensure that we keep our collective ears and eyes open. https://notbottomline.wordpress.com/tag/ruben-rochina/

There is a lot of money to be made, if you can find players who are out of contract and move them to a new club, whereby the new club pay no transfer fee. Remember how much commission was paid to the agent, who brought Ruben Rochina, from Barcelona to Rovers? A few eyebrows were raised about that one at the time and those same eyebrows may well be raised again this summer, especially if all the out of contract players end up at the same club. If an agency can get their man installed as manager of a club, the damage that can be done, is immense. Put the manager in front of the cameras after each match to explain the unexplainable and he might start to either lick his lips, or start to sound like some sort of half whit. Same shit different season basically, after all Blackburn Rovers fans are a gullible bunch aren’t they? If Rovers fans can be accused of being racist, then it’s easy to accuse them of creating an atmosphere, toxic enough to destroy the confidence of the young players and cause them to lose a match, to a team who never win away. Rinse and repeat, until the cupboard is totally dry. The next manager won’t be any different to the string of managers presented to us as good for the club, when in reality, they are only good for the agents still bleeding the club dry. For anyone still not convinced that we are totally free from the poison that turned up over 11 years ago, perhaps they need to look back and research why the agents, who all seem to be connected, still have such a big influence at the club and why the company whose name appears on the deeds to the club, continually allow themselves to be taken for a ride. The Tweet sent out today about entitled fans once again blames us for the demise. The audience may not be quite as big as the one given to Myles Anderson’s Dad to spout his stuff about the fans, but the same message that is certainly rolled out again.

Scary isn’t it, how the original people involved in the takeover, are somehow still around. The bad advice continues then?

I know the blogs you did Glen were read by plenty and I have seen evidence for myself of some of the goings on, including team selection. I know certain people on here, for whatever reason, have either not read them properly, or have chosen to pour scorn on some of it. That of course is their choice. Sadly, as we now see with Honeyman, there are STILL links to this regime and although we are all baffled with the players chosen and the formation played week in week out and even more baffled as to why a professional football manager, cannot fathom out, how to change a slide of epic proportions, perhaps there is still outside influence and that could explain how this has come about.

Mowbray had a dream. He failed a football team He had some money but spent it all on crap He had 5 at the back and no attack now Tony Mowbray, is facing the sack.

There was another poster who said he had engaged with the club and was convinced changes for the better we’re on the horizon. Myself and others, suggested that this was someone at the club, doing the usual, positive PR but nothing positive would be done, in fact quite the opposite. There is a bit of contradiction in your post by the way. How did you believe it was hoped that the owners would come to a game, yet end your post the way you did? We’re you told this by other supporters, or someone at the club?

They have truly learned from the bad advice……… Not.

He is the one most likely to provide an assist and a killer pass. Should be a starter every week in my opinion, so long as he is played in his best position.

Me too. He doesn’t look right.

I know the guy who was the club Doctor at Bolton under Coyle and believe me, he is not a nice guy.

I think we proved that last Friday
