Frying pan, fire.

Don't ruin your summer by worrying about that old goat. Make the most of not having to read his arse covering waffle after every game. Enjoy not having to see the gurn. I'm positive the Indians aren't worrying about him, or Rovers in general, so forget about it for a few weeks and enjoy being able to go to the pub and hug your Granny.

With you. This is assuming he's been told though. Or if he has been told, perhaps his pay off is contingent with a smooth transition? His stock is falling by the game, this could be a way to keep some dignity. I'm also not putting anything past Mowbray not fully understanding what he's been told either, frankly. He's not the sharpest. More than likely clutching at straws with this thought process I'm fully aware, but straws are all we fucking have these days

This might make sense in Venky land though, right? When they eventually remember who Rovers and Mowbray are they'll remember that they like him and that'll be enough to trust him to guide them through his own removal. I totally buy in to this being possible with those utter clowns. Though I'm still fully expecting him to be gurning it up in our dugout when the new season kicks off

I'm too exhausted with the worrying about the shit show we've become to start questioning you about your sources. I just hope and pray that you're right here. Mowbray going will only be a small victory as Venkys will always be diabolical, but whilst they remain small victories is all we can hope for.

This. Has he got no self respect? Surely at some point reputation has got to outweigh money. Though for me it's far too late, his reputation should be in absolute tatters.

Fuck off Mowbray, useless old clown

LOL

You'll be thinking the same in the 75th minute

Corry Evans personifies everything that is wrong with our club since Venkys took over. He's just shit

Agreed, he's pretty much nailed it for me

Blows my mind. How can he get away with it? How is he not pushed more by the media on these utterly ridiculous statements he comes out with? I cannot wait to let him know my thoughts on his performance once we're back in the stadium, I'm a performance based fan.

They're a complete fucking shambles. No idea if it's due to being corrupt, naeivity or the fact that we're well down their list of priorities (in reality it's probably a combination of the above) the outcome is always the same - the fans get fucked. Frankly, a decade in, its getting harder and harder to care.. but one thing I will wholeheartedly enjoy, is learning that Mowbray has been sacked, whenever that might be. Him and our sack of shit CEO.

This is the only thing keeping me going. It's more than likely not the case given how Venkys operate but I'm so dispondent at this point I need to give myself some hope; let's scrape through this absolute car crash of a season with our clown of a manager and CEO combo and then they'll be out on their arse and we can start again in the summer.

Have the bookies sent the bailiffs round? 😉

Ahh the classic "yeah but he's saying it too".. thing is you've posted stuff like this for weeks, throwing enough shit at the wall until it eventually sticks. I wouldn't find it boring in the slightest, regardless if there aren't any posts where I'm being given hope based on little or no evidence. Once I know Mowbray and Waggott have gone I'll be over the moon, at least until we employ Keith Andrews or someone similar.

Thing is you haven't a clue, no one really does. So until it's actually happened then putting stuff up like this and giving people false hope - especially after the last decade - isn't fair IMO.

I so so so hope you're right, it's well past due and will be a huge relief. The issue comes with who the clowns in Pune stumble across next - though I don't think it can get any worse than Mowbray, it'll be a huge surprise if we get the calibre of manager we need to get this club back where it belongs.

And there is Mowbrays excuse - "if we'd have scored the pen it'd only have been a 0-1 defeat and if we could turn that into 1-0 win we'd be in the play offs"

Ooh 0-2, what will the hook nosed old goat come up with as an excuse now?

Didn't even know we were playing. Things will be shit until Venkys sell, Mowbray leaving will be pleasant, but things will still be shit.

Yeah I do think he'll go in the summer. Whether that's because I can't bring myself to think about another season of woeful underperformance is another matter

Says everything when I feel like I've really enjoyed, and perhaps even needed, the last 8 days not thinking about Tony fucking Mowbray. It's not even Rovers that stresses me out now, it's our utterly inept manager. Problem is once he goes - and I feel like we're not too far away from it now - then there'll almost certainly something else to worry about, as unless Venkys get very lucky and/or break from their tradition of making ever single incorrect decision possible, then we'll be forever mid table, or God forbid flirting with relegation. The only thing that keeps me going is that football goes in cycles, our time will come again, I just hope I still care by then - and the fact I still care after the last decade of utter shit means I almost certainly will.

Great result, fair play to the boys that was some effort. I can't decide if the worst part is that Tony has no idea why it worked today or the fact he'll dine out on this for months.

“We haven’t lost a game by more than one goal for a long, long time, it’ll be really interesting to go there and see how we get on against the best team in the division. Have you ever read anything more pathetic?
