More than Moise Kean getting the winner for Juve. Fairly impressive that.

Coventry 99th min equaliser for me. Could well be 2pts would have done it come season end. Still fuming. Don't even know where the added 6 mins came from.

Playing fast and loose with that word. Volvo's are safe. Dack's more an Alpha Romeo.

Refs always seem to bottle it when advantage goes on for a while after the incident. Like their too scared to go all the way back. Absolutely should though. Edit: Another one right after ignored is taking the absolute piss.

Difference for me is I dislike Tony Mowbray as manager of this club, and the death of a thousand cuts he's putting us through. I dislike Steve Kean as a human being, and always will.

He had to for the safety of his dog.

No one goes to 1 restaurant for the whole of their lives. If one is crap, they move onto another one and try that. Bit different being a football fan. Using that anology, we should all go support Man City. That's the Nobu of the North West. So let's get ourselves on the waiting list, or slip the host a large note and we're laughing right? If only it were that simple. Instead we're constantly scoffing the same old tripe, and regularly suffering from food poisoning.

Arma to come on as sub and score a heartbreaking 91st min winner. 🤞

Tony Mowbray's Reign...& is he off to Sunderland ?
Silas replied to roversfan99's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Was looking at this again, 3 more games in Feb after your stats, 1 win. Have also added in Boro's stats under him 2012 & 2013 (1 win in 6, 2 wins in 5). By my counting, in full Championship seasons, Tony Mowbray has managed 36 games in February and won 7 of them. That is a recipe for failure right there. Doesn't matter whether your chasing promotion or fighting relegation, if you blow that key month every season it's going to derail you every time. And when you factor in that Feb is usually only part of a Mowbray death spiral, really does highlight what a specialist in failure he is. -

https://www.soccerstats.com/formtable.asp?league=england2 We're in the relegation zone in form tables 8/10/12 games. We're 1 place out the zone on GD in the 6 game form table. It literally couldn't really be any worse. I'm sure TM will have a different spin on those irrefutable statistics. -

Got to end up one of the worst collapses since it became the Championship. Has anyone gone 2nd to 12th before? -

🤷♂️ Your commentator. Said "..he's finally starting to win me over." Always liked him as a player. -

Commentators on your channel saying similar. They can't believe their eyes. Said they'd never seen Stoke do dinky little balls in the channels and round corners. Also stunned that players that have been crap for ages suddenly look World class (Maja, Jaglielka). It's almost like there's some factor that's making your team so good today. 🤔 Answers on a postcard to Tony. -

It's starting to look on purpose. Unfathomably poor. -
I can see that. Portrays the down to earth image, but could see him being a right grumpy git with little time for lower level underlings. He does come across as quite arrogant sometimes, considering his standing in the football industry. I suppose there is a fine line between confidence and arrogance though.

And in 4 months we'll be playing without at least 6 of the errr...good/better/less crap players of the squad. Imagine what those stats could look like then? Imagine the goals for column when we lose our key attacking threats? We're bobbins at hitting the net now! It's really depressing me. -

A quick google turns up 4 managers that have called their team's performance "unacceptable" in the last month alone: Mikel Arteta- Arsenal Steve Bruce- WBA Danny Cowley- Portsmouth Shaun Maloney- Hibs. Who declared his team "Not good enough for top six, top four, or Europe!" Has Mowbray EVER come out and been honest enough to make such an assessment? In the 6 odd years he's been here? We all know it's been "unacceptable" many, many times. The closest I can find is "That was our poorest performance of the season", "below our normal standard" and "we didn't compete well enough". That's it! That's the most contrite he's mustered throughout all the death spirals and endless disappointments. The record non-winning runs, the record 7-0 home loss. The calamitous second half of season collapses. If he had just once come out and called a spade a spade, I might have an ounce of respect left for him. As it is, him and his mealy mouthed press conferences can piss right off....for good. -

Imagine working in a high paying job where you get away with talking about targets like that. It's basically saying - "I don't give a shit about the results I produce, what you gonna do about it?!" I'd have been sacked from most of my previous jobs for failing to hit the targets, I'd definitely been sacked if I talked that way about them. Easy street doesn't begin to cover it.
