I've seen more life in a corpse than Bell.

Johnsons distribution is terrible. Looks like a pub team player.

He's out of contract at the end of the season so if he does well and finds another club he just picks up a tidy signing-on fee.

Mowbray under pressure from the fans fuming behind their screens. Might as well curse the weather for all the difference it makes. Under no pressure from those holding his (and the Club's) future in their hands.

Loaning out Chapman gives more opportunity for Dolan and Butterworth who are contracted till 2022 and look better prospects.

I somehow forgot Gordon Lee. His inclusion pushes TM out of my top 10.

We'll lose this one and he won't be sacked.

I simply don't understand the reverence in some quarters for Mowbray's "achievements". In the c55 years I've supported the club he's only just in the Top 10 managers based on league position and value added - behind Furphy, Smith, Kendall, Saxton, Mackay, Kenny, Souness, Hughes and possibly Big Sam. All these managers achieved more relative to their budgets and the resources they inherited in terms of both established players and upcoming youth. Apart from Dack and Armstrong, possibly Kaminski (early days ) where has TM added value in the squad? He inherited Raya, Travis, Nyambe and Lenihan and gave debuts only to the first two. The lynchpins of the promoted team - Mulgrew, Evans, Conway, Graham - were already at the club. The wages of £17m in L1 far exceeded anyone else in that season. In the 3 seasons since promotion he has only managed to maintain - so far - a midtable position in the Championship.

Mowbray is our mini-version of Arsene Wenger. Did a good job in turning round a dire squad, won a promotion and moved to a playing style that's easy on the eye - when it's working. Obsessed with stockpiling midfielders and dismissive of defensive strength and resilience. When results and performances dip well below expectations he just cussedly goes on in his own way.

Let's hope so. Defeat at Brum and out of the FA Cup would be well worth it for a fresh start.

I suspect the Brexit will prevent or at best delay an appointment of a foreign national. Just 36 hours left to get it over the line.

Michael Flynn is a good shout.

Now is the time to make a change allowing the in-coming manager the opportunity to shore up the defence (as Mowbray has proved utterly incapable in that respect for more than 2 years) and to look at reshaping the squad for next season. If he's a miracle worker the play-offs are still just about in reach-but now I'm just being silly.

Another defeat nailed on against struggling Brum. If the defence was poor with Nyambe and Ayala (and it was) just how will it cope without any recognised replacements? Just pray for a "circuit breaker" until the transfer window opens.

No need for Brum to worry. We'll give them 3 points on Saturday. You can rely on a Mowbray team to give a helping hand.

Add Souness to the list that went stale.

Socially distanced.

Mowbray has a long history of blowing up in mid-season- at Celtic, Boro and Coventry - going into a slide he has no idea how to stop. He has to go NOW otherwise relegation is on the cards for this rag-tag squad.

Sack Mowbray. Cannot go on like this. Be looking just to stay up at this rate.

I make it 3 (Nyambe, JRC, and Elliott) plus Rothwell with the club having a one year option.

Not easy to assess whether Trybull has thrown his toys out of the pram or Mowbray is blanking him for throwing a hissy fit on being unjustifiably taken off against Stoke. Fortunately the centre midfield issue should be resolved when hopefully Travis returns. Then Trybull becomes surplus to requirements.

Douglas is utter sh*te. He's weak, hesitant and bereft of confidence and form.

Jones would just join the others in the treatment room.

Yes, and that was after playing Williams in the position for 2 seasons having been put there previously by that genius Coyle. Does Mowbray have any idea of what he wants at left back?

How does Buckley start ahead of Davenport who is not even in a 20 man squad? Buckley is way out of depth at this level.
