Just as Ossydave says the in/out Mowbray is 50/50 with the fan base. But what do the Venky club advisors think, assuming they exist? I'm on the "out side" based on his weak managerial techniques including poor player enthusiasm, out of position players, failure to pick right team with available squad, wasted transfer budget and, if he's losing relationship with fans (based on the 50/50), he's probably losing the dressing room. I'd praise him for getting us back up but that's about it. If we can see this, Venky club advisors can see this too. The club has a big problem. He's struggling and because of his nature he will not step aside, even though he did once say he would. The man loves football but he's not at Championship managerial level. The problem may be he will not go and the club cannot afford to sack him.

Seriously need to look towards next season. Cant sack TM as we cant afford. Poor poor xmas and we cant blame loss of Dack. TM poor management.

Disappointing Christmas. Guess I was kidding myself thinking playoffs. Club not at that level and that includes TM.

Agree - stay positive and get behind the team. Any negativity will feed through to the team. Four games in 9 days needs to be managed, we need to be twelfth man. Lets drum up as much as we can! COYB

Good post Stuart. The ref was a joke and anyone who saw him agree. The Championship clubs should do something about lack of quality at this level. On a positive, don't think we'll go down but it will be close.

If it was off the ball he'll be punished.

It was very quick bet a lot missed it. Awful night at ewood. Guess we should be use to the let downs. But what kind of manager buries his head in his hands? He should be ranting and scaring the sh1t out of his players!

We'll get no where with TM

Mowbray head in hands. Wonder why??

He's not match fit

Why was there traffic problems?

Traffic couldn't deal with premiership. 25 mins from j4

Was thinking same. Preston lacking quality unable to hit the net but it was an off day for both clubs. Start of a tense period in season with 4 games in 8 days for us. Need to start with a good win against Wigan. Expecting a big following at Huddlers.

Two home games followed by Huddersfield away. Should be a sell out for us.

Just reading through page 5 of this post with a smile! None of us could see 0 2. Great win today, well done TM, Rovers team and the 750 fans who got behind the lads at Bristol.

David Dunn's goals against Burnley where outstanding especially when the lad is local known well in both towns. Jordan Rhodes brought back memories of a great former striker, and the plea to Venkys ".....don't sell the Rhodes, super Jordan Rhodes, just don't think you understand…." comes to mind. Danny Graham not only for his goals but his awareness/contact with lifting fans during game. Charlie Mulgrew for his freekicks hitting back of net plus his winner at Doncaster. Difficult one. If Graham comes on and scores the winner today can I edit this? May nomination is ...…… David Dunn.

Guess its back to normal. Hopes raised with 4 wins and almost in playoff positions then reality bites. Lets face it we are more like a bottom half team than promotion contenders.

Poorly managed game. Dack should have been taken off. Downing was a spent penny. Great stop by Walton. Two mid table teams going nowhere.

Swansea by far the better team, hope we can hold on to a point.

TM lost a great opportunity there.

Mowbray should have took him off.

What DO we practice in training!!!! A lot of wasteful passing.

Same team but awful football.

HT 1 1, I'd take that from what I've seen although disappointing - every team has a day off. Travis looks out of his depth. Sort your sound out sky.

missed it and with no reply or rewind...…...no sound either.
