  1. That tactic is often used, Fortunately, some of us, even those of us in advanced years, have memory capacity greater than a goldfish
  2. https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/18588364.mowbray-happy-lead-rovers-next-phase-journey/ FaceBook having an orgasm
  3. The left-back problem was caused by the injury to Cunningham. Many including me were of the opinion when that injury occurred that Bell and Williams were not fit for purpose. Even Williams thought so and wanted to play as a CB, Get facts correct
  4. Without checking I think Celtic lost that match 4-0 One of my favourites is Mowbrays classic "I build football clubs" and the very recent "I know where our inconsistency comes from'' or something like that. So do I matey! Any other manager that we have ever had, ok maybe not King Kenney, would get pelters of sorts for lines like but someone The Legend is immune. I can accept it more and more based on the belief that he's a barn pot.
  5. On a positive note, we are above PNE in the 10 game form guide league. Mowbray is a Friigin Legend! This will be all over Facebook
  6. Scott Brown “I had Tony Mowbray as a manager – that was a crisis. We’re playing well now but back then we weren’t playing any football whatsoever and the crowds were down to 15,000-20,000" Quite how he got Celtic crowds down to below 20K is unknown to this day.
  7. The attraction of Keane is that sooner or later as Manager he would get to meet Bling, and nut him. A lot of wishful thinking on here. Quite understandable. The reality is that Mowbray, Brereton and Gallagher are going nowhere......... That's deliberate!
  8. With me it started with No 10, then Wide Strikers and now False 9 Mere words invented by dumbass Managers and Coaches to appear clever and confuse those who have not got their Badges (which is a bit like Religious Studies being a subject you cannot fail) when actually most are stealing a living and know the square root of fuck all.
  9. Can't wait! We can pretend we are signing 2 foreign Keepers up to the 5th October and then switch to 2 Keepers from the EFL right up to 16th. What joy lies ahead.
  10. The reality is that even Mowbray knows that JRC is a better LB that Bennett but Mowbray must play his stool pigeon so the reserved character that is Nyambe is the fall guy. The least likely to complain. If Ryan's agent is doing his job he will get Ryan away from this basket case of a manager who is and will continue to ruin him. I try to avoid reading or listening to Mowbray but it's so addictive, the wondering of what shit he will come up with next. I really do wonder what our better players really think of Mowbray, not that they will ever go public.
  11. This is a must keep the squad and bank manager happy game. Play all the oldies, has-beens and never-will-be for a bonus appearance wage bounce and % split Bennett has again committed to paying Mrs M. for the half-time Lemon Drizzle cake. Tony is borrowing a deckchair from Venus and wonders where Waggot is.
  12. Was Downing played as the false 9? can't be true? Can it?
  13. I can't comment on the match as all my dodgy links failed to deliver. One showed the Sheff Wed game so I watched 20 mins of that as it also had commentary, but with radio commentary which was so good compared to the usual dross. Anyway, I saw that Millwall had scored, looked at the time here, thought fuck that and went to bed. My tactics were spot on. If only Moanbray could be as decisive.
  14. Kendall, Saxon and Mackay were Gods compared to the toad in the chair now and their teams tried
  15. FFS I slept through an alarm call and missed the game
  16. Yes they will at £20 mil each starting price. At least they can afford to pay well when they raid us. Time will tell if their approach works in a very competitive Championship next season. I doubt that Farke could have set up a defensive model good enough to do a Dingles with the players he had. I quite admire them for that.
  17. Mowbray back to telling us what a difficult job he has. The LONG trip to London. What a dilemma. FFS buffoon.
  18. Exactly right. Norwich are rebuilding their assets both off and on the pitch and as you posted before the PL experience their younger players now have is a windfall bonus. In a previous interview I read Farke was saying how the promotion early in his tenure took him and the Club by suprise. Maybe they should have kept their debt, not invested in infrastructure and spent a fortune on players .... And maybe still get relegated. Now that would have caused a witch hunt. As it is they are well set up to go again. Whether that works or not is a completely different story. A final thought is that Covid effects may make their approach look look well chosen. Anyway that's them and this is us so if we now win 3 on the bounce we have every chance of buying a lottery ticket. Funnier things have happened in this Funny Old Game.
  19. Farke was following orders from his Board who spent next to nothing after promotion. They had debts to resolve first. Barring a miracle they expected relegation and I think they are planning a more serious promotion bid in the season to come. They were promoted last season under Farke earlier than expected and found themselves with the unexpected bonus in their "slow build" of a season of PL money etc etc Going into a defensive mode in the PL with the players at his disposal and not allowed to buy much would not have worked either and he's not a lump it merchant like Ginger. One of Mowbray's main attributes, at least to his acolytes, is his honesty yet here is Farke being slated for being in those now immortal words = open and honest. Odd. Yes they are also disappointed to be relegated BUT at least they got there
  20. Norwich seem to have no problem with a season in the PL. We will be playing them soon enough. BBC: Farke insisted the Canaries went about the season in the right way. "From the first day after promotion our chances to survive were perhaps 5% so in 19 out of 20 cases you will go down," he added. "If you have luck and no injuries then you have a chance. When we are 100% we are competitive but when it's 96 or 97% then it sometimes looks like men against boys." "The club is able to pay for all the sins of the past. We are able to invest in our infrastructure for the long term. I was fully aware and committed for doing things this way." "Of course we're disappointed but it was the right decision for this club and I always was happy to stick to this plan."
  21. Yes it was a good chance. Just watched MOTD, skipping past the Scouser, and proper strikers in the PL missed from similar 1on 1s in almost every game. It happens, at least Davenport had a shot on target , goal as opposed to corner flag like some we have.
  22. We have not run out of games. Those games have already been played.
  23. ''Dack basically saying Armstrong is a number 9'' "His actual words were “he [Armstrong] will tell you he’s a nine”. Dack went on to say that “he [Dack] prefers it (for his own game) when Arma comes inside from the left”." There is no problem apart from a sway in the goalposts
  24. Look back at your original comment
