Continually bringing on an explosive player as a substitute after an hour sitting on a bench is asking for trouble.

Between 1992 and 2010 we were in the Premier League.  Now we are in League One where loans are the norm.  Times have changed, sadly, but wishing it wasn't so isn't going to change things.  If Mowbray believes the players he has brought in on loan will help us to promotion then good luck to them.  We can't change the past but hopefully the guys on loan can improve our future and help to take us back to the Championship.

2012 not 2010 but really the clock stopped when Venkys moved in.

I said Mulgew should be rested to avoid injury

 

What is the use of a player who cannot be used ?

Many thanks

Is there an audio commentary on iFollow and, if so, how is it accessed?

Obviously needed to get away early from Saturday's match. Something other than his hamstring was feeling tight.

A post-fact era? Describing a manager's achievements as "not being sacked after relegation" and by "topping the table... at Christmas"? Seriously?

I think, as long as you are quoting facts to back your argument, just stick with "he saved Coventry from dropping into the fourth tier".

But just remember that your benchmark, according to many people on here, is that Paul Lambert got Norwich promoted to the Championship and the to the Premier League and "he's crap" so it's not really saying much.

TM was not sacked by WBA. Celtic had to pay £2m compensation to get him. Fact. Boro were 2nd and 3rd respectively on 1 January in TW's first two full seasons there. Fact

Who mentioned WBA? 

Facts are facts mate how is it unfair exactly? 

You did not include his excellent record at WBA so omitting facts is unfair.

Had to save his CV i guess. Mark Venus his old assistant stayed i believe?

Sacked by Celtic (worst win record since 1993) won just 23 from 45 in charge, 3rd worst win record in Celtic's entire history.

Sacked at Middlesborough 

And the issue at Coventry where he left them routed to the table.

You can see why people were not exactly enamored with his appointment BUT a big well done thus far.

Unfair summary. TM is a legend at WBA and was not sacked even though relegated from PL. Took Boro to top of table twice at Xmas with negligible funding. Saved Cov from relegation and again topped table following Xmas. Look at the all the facts not just the ones that suit your opinion. Then again we live in a post-fact era....

Just seen the latest offering from the teenage scribbler, Rich Sharp, describing Guthries performance against Derby as "tiresome" when he surely means "tireless".

Travis play at Right back? better position?

I think Doyle is going to be good player in the future.

I think within 2 seasons we will have 7 or 8 players with the first team squad from the academy. I'm not including Lowe or Raya or Lenihan in that. along with Mahoney, Tomlinson, Travis, Wharton, Doyle, Hardcastle, Rankin Costello and Nyambe

Delusional. You've been listening too much to Chimphead. For a start the U21 is kids stuff compared to the physicality of L1. And any players who show they can cope at senior level will be sold - Barnsley are already monitoring Mahoney. 

Kean has lied again by implying that the results at Liverpool and Man Utd prevented relegation  -  these flukes both occurred in the relegation season. There is nothing that pile of s**t won't invent to make himself look better (than a pile of s**t). 

I see " Basil " Rathbone's son, 19 year old Olly, is getting rave reviews in Rochdale's midfield at the moment. From all accounts he's a box to box grafting ball winner. Rochdale picked him up after Man U released him at the end of last season. One to keep an eye on ?

Will be playing against him next season.

Only 2 points from two very winnable home matches against out-of -form Ipswich and Wolves both in a bad run, spells relegation

Now Wigan have sacked their manager. Another team that surge away from us. Only Rotherham are possibly worse.
