    It’s a no brainer! They got the odd one wrong, aka Jim Iley, but they knew how to find gems for the level we were at back then. Derek Keighley didn’t do too badly either with Howard Kendall

    Apparently Jimmy Armfield was the king maker in those days

    I was still in my young years(less than 5 years old) when Walker bought the club. So I don't know the Bancroft and Fox era too much. 

    I don't see the owners telling Mowbray he cant sign defenders for x or y or z reasons. Mowbray has the final decision. I don't know why he didn't sign the defenders we needed. Too loyal to current players. 

    Bancroft and Fox was before the Walker era.

    All successful managers build from the back. When Clough turned Forest into European champions, he went out and broke the British record for a keeper. We go out and find one that has had more loans than a banker on the fiddle

    Arnold and Gennoe with no money. Nuff said.

    It won’t be Waggot’s decision, he’s a pawn. Suhail is the decision maker at Ewood nowadays, we can only hope that he’s built up enough footballing knowledge in his time here to know that Mowbray must go ASAP, but I’m not holding my breath.

    Not holding my breath either. Wouldn't trust Pasha's judgement in a game of dominoes

    I heard some people say Bell had a decent game as well. He's still crap !

    Evans is an international so should have a good game more often than "for once". In fact he does when he plays for his country.

    Perhaps these are all good players and the reason they all regularly underperform is the manager.

    Just like perhaps these are all good goalkeepers until they start working with a coach who has never played in goal.

    Suddenly they all become shite but what is the common denominator ?

    New keeper, same "coach", same result.

    Who coached

    Jones

    Bradshaw

    Arnold

    Gennoe

    Flowers

    Friedel

    No disrespect to the fella, but i couldnt give a shite what he says. People on here treat him like hes the font of all knowledge, hes a standard football fan, with no more knowledge or experience in the game than me or you, who for some reason gets touted about like he has lots of contacts.

    Stuck his head above the parapet and got some serious flak when most looked the other way. Fair play to him.

    Be angry with Mowbray Chaddy.  He has proved that he has a total inability to affect and read games as they are occurring ie he just appears incapable or unable to react to situations until it’s too late.

    Yesterday, the game changed more or less at the beginning of the second half, directly as a result of what the PNE manager did.  Did we react?  No.  Was it inevitable they would score? Yes.  By that time our momentum had gone.  He was going to react just before they scored their second but again too late.  As they got that equaliser, you could see by the body language in our lot that we would be leaving with nil points.

    Due to poor or non existent recruitment during the last 2 windows, we are not equipped to compete.

    My view is we will be relegated unless Mowbray is replaced before the next window.

    As I said Chaddy, be angry with Mowbray, he is a dinosaur.

    Same as Huddersfield last Saturday.
