Jesus Christ. Season going to end in one massive car crash here. Hey, at least Tony will have his excuses ready.

We have a handicap for every single match already, with Mowbray in the dugout.

If anyone is adamant that they wouldn’t want Dyche then they’re wrong. Head and shoulders above anything we’ve been lumbered with here, for the last decade.

Agree with you up until your last para. ‘And comfortably’. You’ve clearly been living in a Merlot haze for too long, Mercer.

Or Mowbray.

Wow. I still wouldn’t have been surprised if he’d somehow kept them up.

100%. He has to start. Take him off after 60 if that’s what’s needed. If someone comes on here after today and says ‘a point isn’t a bad result’ then I think I’ll lose my mind. Must win if there ever was one.

I can never say it enough, a fair number of our fans deserve Venky’s. Reading a number of responses on Twitter you’d be forgiven for thinking that we’re still a well run mid-table PL outfit.

He also reckons we’ve only struggled to win matches for ‘the last month or so’. The blokes bullshit meter is off the charts at the moment. Can’t stand listening to or reading a word he says.

Found this on Twitter, posted by a Cov fan 5 years ago who has since retweeted it in response to a post about our dire form since the turn of the year: Mowbray's average points, first 23 games v remainder; Middlesbrough 11/12 - 1.91 vs 1.13 12/13 - 1.75 vs 0.78 Coventry 15/16 - 1.87 vs 0.9

It'd be more likely Venus than Johnson if they did go down that route. Johnson seems to have been pushed further behind the scenes this season. We all know though that it'll be some washed up HSH manager. My money is still on Pulis.

What betting we throw away victory in the final minutes again? 1-1 and season over.

Oh they'll be back out in force when we win our final couple of matches (we'll still miss out on the play-offs, mind). "If only BBD had been fit all season", "Mowbray's turned it around", "we were so unlucky to go so close", "he deserves the summer". We all know it's coming.

I’d be highly surprised if he has something lined up yet, so it’s surely in his interest to get scoring before the end of the season. People have short memories in football, and with Chile out of the WC running, there won’t be so much media focus on them for a while either.

Looked like there was a big disconnect between Mowbray and some of our players yesterday. I’d wager that some are as baffled as we are with his tactics and systems.

In complete agreement on Johnson. Some played down his social media posts at the time - Mowbray clearly didn’t.

Nah, we’ll finish with a couple of wins to keep the happy clappers on board, trust me. We still won’t make the play-offs mind.

I think 2 in 17. As I say, he could trump it yet this season.

‘Everyone’ in the league hasn’t nosedived from 2nd to 7th and won 2 in 13 though, Tony.

What was Mowbray’s record breaking run last season. Wasn’t it 2 wins from 17? We’re currently 2 wins from 13. Can he trump it with 5 matches left?!

I’m not picking on the lad as he’s probably not even fit, but I think I am going to be right in that he won’t even be a one season wonder. Half-season wonder is more apt.

The one positive from this season may yet be Forest sneaking automatics over Bournemouth. Tough ask but they’re looking unstoppable.

Four wins in seventeen. Get this clown out now. What on earth is the point in letting him hang around for five more matches. Really, really beginning to detest the bloke.

Embarrassing. 4 wins in 17. Not quite as bad as last season, but for me it’s 100 x worse given where we were at the turn of the year. Just sack the dinosaur now rather than letting him have five more matches on our time. I cannot watch another second under this bloke.

All the b*llocks spouted by the players in the build up to this match about ‘6 cup finals’. Come to the weekend and we’re like a bunch of scared kittens. It does my head in.
