I see the Rovers website home page only has comments from Mowbray. As he is only a head coach and not even a manager, that shouldn't be his remit. However again it is left to the person that picks the team to front up as the face of BRFC once more. Pity we've not got a director of football or something to communicate with the fans at a moment like this.

If I was Mowbray I would walk. No question. Another season here with the squad we will have next year and he'll never get a job in football again. His record since he got here means he may well get a shot in league one somewhere else next season once the managerial merry-go-round starts again.

So the players are good enough, the manager is good enough but we are going down because they are not fit enough. Yeah right.

Unfortunately our loanees and out of contract players have been on the beach for weeks.

Tony used to play on the docks. Stokesy's been on strike, he's down on his luck with love. With love. Conor dreams of running away. He plays on the right sometimes. Raya is Ok. Ok.

Love the optimism but we'll plod to a point on Saturday and get beat at Brentford.

Plus if Huddersfield get something out of their midweek game with Wolves, they will be safely in the play offs by the time they go to Big Club.

I'm disappointed because I thought the Villa - Brum game was on the box. Im a sadist. I wanted to witness every turn of the knife.

No. I want to know what the Trust realistically think this could achieve? What's the realistic best case scenario? What are we actually asking the Sports Minister to do? Whilst it's fair enough supporters trusts trying to stop this happening again in the future, I don't believe anything that happens here can force Venkys to sell.Even in the aims given on the trust website. It's not an anti-trust view. It's just like re-living what BRAG did 4 years ago.

Exactly what I was going to ask. Whats the point? So that another dodgy owner trying to buy a different club in 5 years time might actually fail an improved 'fit and proper persons test'?

Unfortunately I'm starting to agree with the doubters. Senior's inability to add to the squad in January when we were in the bottom three has proved costly. However TM's shocking tactics on Monday and today have left serious doubts on his ability. When even Kevin Gallagher is saying it's possibly the worst attacking performance we have put in all season, and it's a must win game, you have to question it.

With rumours this week that should we get relegated our wage bill could be slashed by up to 50%, why would Cheston not want to finish third bottom.

If they release the 'freed up' money to be used on incomings then the squad can be reshaped. If they cut costs and pocket some of the savings then it's a massive ask to keep the side as competitive as they currently are (which this season has been not very).

We are no longer talking about big salaries. I'd imagine the medium earners will be under threat. Lowe got his new contract under Keano. That won't be small. Why do you think there is no talk at all of renewal. Evans, Graham and Guthrie will be on there way. No idea if Stokes and Mulgrew are on as much as those three. I'd hope not seeing as both were free and they didn't exactly have better options. They more likely dug their heels in for a 3 year contract cos the money wasn't high enough.

.

We've had the 'restructuring' of selling players with value and replacing them with players who are cheap/free. Stage 2 will be remove the higher earners and replace with people who are on less money. I can't see how anyone can disagree with the above.

We're on an express elevator to hell.

King, Cairney, rhodes, gestede, Olsson, Duffy, Hanley. Yet we still couldn't get close to getting in the top 6. We only went under FFP the year he left. Nice guy, good eye for a player, failure at Ewood.

Senior has put himself on the back foot with some cringeworthy interviews that have show he will happily fiddle while Rome burns. However he has done 3 major things so far. Remove Coyle (the good), give us Jaoa (the bad) and bring in Mowbray (the ugly ). Going forward, the relationship between him and Mowbray will need to be exceptionally good if he's providing players, However it has to be Mowbrays call if he wants them. It's no good forcing players on a manager and forcing him to adapt his system.which brings us back to is a DOF a glorified scout?

Stop trying to crow Chaddy. Anyone with half an eye could see Senior wanted Coyle out and a 'yes man' to work under him as a coach from as soon as he arrived.. You also said you expected a foreign coach to come in.

So do I Chaddy. That's because when we let everybody out of contract go we will have no choice. They'll be in the squad whether they are any good or not!

Wonder if this is printed already in tomorrow's print version. Kean heads.

Williams: Lower end championship player. Gallagher: OK for this level. Graham: Decent for this level. Lamberts parting gift. Feeney: Birmingham game aside, totally useless Hoban: OK Greer: Desperate Emnes: Declined after initial promise. Uninspiring Mulgrew: Very Good but that contract length is madness. Stokes, Byrne, Samuelson, Hendry: All missing in Action because they are so poor.

Lol. What skill? He's had one good game where he caused a slow full back trouble.He can put a decent cross in sometimes but he's hardly Josh King quick and he's no trickery, control or vision. I was all for praising him against Birmingham as he was very effective but that is the first glimpse I've seen of anything from him. I'd still drop him for Mahoney now.

Nyambe I've not formed an opinion of as I've not seen him enough. However I don't think Raya is anywhere near good enough. Another downgrade that might be accepted because he's from 'the academy'.
