That goal was this seasons Brentford moment by the looks of it

Armstrong has been utter cack

Foooooootball

I think we'll beat Derby and people will then really start to get carried away.... however I suspect that may be the closest we get to the play offs. Nice to be looking up though.

Cracking result boys

Genuinely couldn't make this shit up ?

Fuck me couldn't make this shit up

It's down to Tony really, we should be going there for the win but the concern is he'll be worried about something he shouldn't be worried about and this will transmit onto the team and ergo our performance. I'm going for a decent away win 1-2 and an internal battle with the myself not to look how many points we are off the play offs.

No doubt it will be a tough game but that wasn't my point. They've lost four of the last six we should be going there for the win.

Won 2 & lost 4 of their last 6. 6 points out of 18 on offer. Tony is that you???

This reads like you believe he will stick with the round pegs in round holes approach? I'd wait to see the line up for the next game to be honest..

Fair play to Mowbray last night, sounds like he got the selection and formation spot on, he absolutely deserves credit for that. Anyone that's looking at the gap between where we are now and the play offs needs their head wobbling though. When was the last time you thought TM got everything right? Personally I can't remember. Frankly I'd take him getting it right 50% of the time as I think we'd be a lot better off than we are now but that's another story. We've put runs together before under him, this could be our latest one and who knows we may even flirt with a play off place off the back of it, but I can absolutely guarantee we won't finish in the top 6 with TM as manager. He's been around too long doing the same old things and making the same old mistakes to change now. Cracking result though, well done the lads.

No apology needed, you're absolutely spot on.

Aren't Charlton about to be taken over? Makes sense that Bowyer would be at risk with a new owner.

Being told by a Brentford fan that they'll "rip us a new one" is about as depressing as it gets, not least as it's true.

And yet despite this we have made no progression in the 1,000 days he's been here. He should walk because he's realised he's taken us as far as he can rather than because he is getting a little bit of grief off people who pay big money to watch him and his team under perform every week.

I think he is on the edge from reading that latest interview. He seems like the type that'd get very emotional if the crowd properly turned and I think they are one thumping away from doing so... and that could very much happen on Wednesday. So say he does walk the biggest concern, as per usual, is Venkys. As he'll have walked, rather than wait to be sacked, there'll be no plan, if there ever is one with those clowns. So my money would be on DJ for the rest of the season which actually I'm not overly concerned with. I'm positive there is so much more ability in this squad than is currently being shown and the reason for the poor showing this season is squarely on TM's shoulders, so i'd back DJ to keep us up as a minimum whilst we search for a new manager. If he does well and get us firmly top half then give him the job full time. If not the clowns will have had 6 months to try and find a someone who could give us a serious run at the play-offs.. Naive perhaps but it shows how disillusioned I've become with Mowbray.

I think we'll get absolutely pumped and this will be the beginning of the end for Mowbray. Gone by Christmas to be replaced with who the fuck knows what.

That interview after the game, he is such a fucking clown. It was all about the 3 points today and yet all the other games this season was about our performance and the fact we've been unlucky to not get points. Please just fuck off.

Probably the hope more than anything. A lot of that hope stems from Tony spending £15m on two players that have been abject failures when we're in this level of debt. And we're just supposed to be happy we're building for the future? How many points are we behind where we were this time last year as well for fuck sake? A manager that plays players in their position would build bridges a lot quicker for me. Relevant to this thread what's your prediction for tomorrow?

"about as low" which means it's on a par with the Kean level but more it's more depression than anger. Plus Kean was at the beginning, I'd hoped it would have been SO much better by now.

Relegation to League One was depressing, Steve Kean was pure hatred. This is as low as I've felt as we're going absolutely nowhere and it's been 9 yrs in the making. I think there are people who don't read properly.

Despite this being about as low as I've been about Rovers in my lifetime I still look forward to Saturday's when we're playing. International football can pop itself in the bin until the tournaments, frankly. How are you going to ruin my weekend this time, Tony? I foresee an appalling 2-2 draw with Tony really cracking in the interview afterwards and blaming it on Ryan Nyambe despite him not being in the squad before catching himself and talking about "investing in them as human beings on the training pitch next week"

Yep totally agree. Moving away from the Graham, Dack, Mulgrew axis has fucked him. And he's not good enough in the transfer market or a talented enough manager to transition away from what was working for him and yet he's still tried to. I actually respect him for that. I believe he'll leave at some point soon I just hope we're still in this division and Venkys stumble across someone better. LOL

Graham and Mulgrew were a big part of the reason Tony did OK in his first couple of years here. They contributed 25 goals between them last year for example. One of them now doesn't start and the other has left the club. Tony's answer has been Brereton, Gallagher and Armstrong. I can't even be arsed to look how many goals they've scored between them but it's next to fuck all. So our lack of goals this year was absolutely inevitable. Combine that with no investment in an already shakey defence and the writing has been on the wall for Mowbray since the beginning of the season. He won't leave though, and part of me can't blame him for that. And actually looking at the bigger picture he's probably the level we are operating at now. Absolutely criminal what Venkys have done to us.
