Quite likely because Carson was signed by Mowbray at WBA and he generally only ever brings in players from his previous clubs. The scouting dept is superfluous and, judging from the BB signing, useless.

It would have been - at least 5 years ago.

Darlow appears to be on a par with the likes of Fielding and Jason Steele, two dodgy keepers who moved on free transfers. Hope we're not paying more than a nominal fee for him.

Or Poundland most likely

Sack was taking the piss with that performance. He looked like a pub player after a night on the piss

Went down like a sack of potatoes

Contrast with December when Boro went a man and a goal down earlier in the match and still got a draw. That sort of outcome is why Rovers are where they are now.

Bauer probably wouldnt come if Charlton are promoted and anyway we might be swapping leagues the way things are going right now.

Brereton in for who? Graham? Nothing to suggest that would be anything other than a massive step backwards. Magloire is untried and gave away a goal on his last U23 appearance. The other two changes are obvious so don't expect Mowbray to make them.

Really? You think this lot wouldn't find a way to lose against a team with nothing to play for?

After today only Rotherham are far enough away for comfort. Where is the next point coming from?

Time to resurrect the relegation thread after (another) disastrous weekend. Currently Rovers have the worst results over the last 6 matches of any team in the 4 divisions. Reading and Rotherham - between them - have lost only once. Apart from the New Year blip of 4 wins this losing habit stretches back for 3 months now. On current form and with non-league standard defending there are probably just 3 matches that offer a realistic prospect of picking up any further points - the home fixtures v Wigan, Bolton and Swansea (and last match nerves might screw that up too). If both Reading or Rotherham win 3 (out of 11) and draw 3 each then more points will be required - where from - and recent form suggests they may well do just that. Mowbray needs to stop chuntering on about next season and do the job he's paid to for this season.

In 4 transfer windows Mowbray has signed only 4 players who have really impacted the first eleven - Dack , Armstrong, Smallwood and the fading Reed. Not an impressive record that bodes ill for what is needed this summer.

He's good with washing powder then.

Mowbray is allowed to mark his own work . Not good or right.

Anyone like to predict where the next point is coming from as the totally symbolic defending and lack of options to deal with this it could be quite some time

I suspect,admittedly without any evidence, that like a lot of older, high-mileage and heavily-built strikers he has a chronic back or hip condition

Rodwell failed to track any of Assombolongas runs and was nowhere to be seen for the goal. He just doesn't understand how to play CB

Just hope 43 points is enough. The way its going last match home to Swansea is looking the most likely source of further points

That sums it pretty well. Very ominous for next season as teams on the slide in the second half of the previous season are prime candidates for relegation.

Bell should be on the bench and Williams sent on his way.

Mowbrays managerial record shows that his teams results go into freefall after a couple og seasons and he doesnt know how to stop it.

How on earth did Forest even ask £7m for this total dump of a player?

Bennett, Rodwell,Mulgrew, Bell/Williams all as soft as putty

He's gradually writing himself out of a new contract here. If as he's proving he can't be trusted at CB then there's no point wasting high wages on a half-hearted injury waiting to happen in Cm.
