When was the last time a manager resigned? In fact, Holloway did a few days ago! Before that however? Years. They lose their pay off then. We will find out if Mowbray is the honourable guy people hold him to be.

Oh yeah, I don't expect him to at all. For the pay off reason, and because maybe he thinks he can genuinely turn things around. Just a shame after bringing the fans together so much that I imagine it's all going to end badly. For everyone involved.

Mowbray has been decent manager, but clearly taken us as far as he can now. If he's the decent man a lot of fans believe him to be then he needs to have his resignation in first thing in the morning before things sour even further.

Thought I recognised this picture from a book of old photos of Blackburn I have. I can't seem to upload a picture of the page it comes from but the book is 'Blackburn since 1900' and is a collection of photo's from the telegraph.

Anyway, the caption underneath the photo says: 'November 1946 and a lightening stoppage halts the buses and trams. But this group of Rovers fans used shank's pony to get to Ewood where Liverpool were the visitors'.

A quick google has the result at 0-0.
