He's been injured hasn't he? Did JDT give him the Souness two-footer or something?

This. He was having no effect at all, getting frustrated and firing Hollywood balls across our defence on more than one occasion that we'd have murdered Morton for. An off day happens, taking him off to try something different was the right call. Stunned that there was booing, I know he's a cult hero but were they watching the game? Thomas however I can only assume isn't deemed physically up to it for the whole 90 at the moment, because I thought he was playing well.

I’m gonna look a right knob for defending him when he’s announced as the next manager.

Their goalkeeping coach played for Man Utd btw 😂 I’ll leave it now. It’s just a curious vendetta.

Fair points. This is exactly why I find it ridiculous why so many are adamant he’s completely shit.

Nonsense. On what evidence??? If we were looking for a goalkeeper coach, and we employed someone with his CV, you’d be more than fine with it - as long as he’d had a couple of seasons for Cambridge Utd in the 90s or something.

Again with the Benson stuff. Tell you what, let’s get in the guy that coached that highly coveted Spanish PL international goalkeeper from 15 to 24. He also coached that Belgian lad. Looks a top Champ goalkeeper, forget his name. oh wait. Is it really because he didn’t play at professional level? We dying for some fat washed up Mark Bosnich type or something?

I believe Raya was coached by him from 15 years old? And didn’t many say TK was up with the leagues best before he started throwing them in? Benson being shit/too involved whatever has become a vicious circle of a BRFCS conspiracy theory.

Ah yes. I remember all of those barnstorming Hedges performances under TM.

Good point. Decent performance. Came from behind - draw specialists!

I see the echoes of Paul Lambert. A decent name we somehow managed to convince to take the job, presumably with a lot of bullshit about investing in our squad, or at least signing some bloody players. The grass isn’t always greener. Many used to say “anyone but Mowbray”, and think he fucked up the squad. But then only give it 7 months with the new guy? We all know what happened next when our reputation amongst managers was in the toilet… Just genuinely would at least like to hear some viable alternatives? Anyway, get in Ben. JDT in.

Which game?

If you think a man with that kind of overinflated opinion of himself would work for this shower I think you’ll be pretty disappointed. Think more… David Lowe

You’ll get your way sooner rather than later I suspect. But it won’t be our decision. Dunno, maybe you’re just excited for Coyle Mk2?

Tbh Hyam should be booting it not passing and putting him in that position. At least Morton tried to clear it. it was just shit.

I suspect “a falling out” is bobbins then? Surely he wouldn’t get the lip on?

If Morton is ever going to make a player he needs to grow some balls. Either hiding or playing the safe ball back the way it came. Constantly.

If he wasn’t from Wilpshire, do you think you’d be so ready to excuse an 18 year old falling out with the manager after a couple of average performances? (if there’s any truth in it)

Conjecture or proven?

There’s the Chile manager, and presumably the Villareal manager too. He’s played on the left since 2019.

Guys, you can’t will it into being a shit performance. Been ok, they’re a good side WBA.

Don’t know where I stand at the moment tbh. He speaks well. I want to believe him. Mainly giving him the benefit of the doubt because I’d just be astonished if our board had managed to scour the footballing world and contrive to land on the one candidate with a decent enough CV who turns out to be just as hopelessly incompetent as they are. Either it’s just our stupid luck, it’s by design, or we are merely seeing a man fighting a losing battle with the clown show down at Ewood. Truth probably somewhere in the middle. It would be a big enough job for GB even without Venkys/Waggott in the picture. Time will tell.

I'm sure we can all make suggestions for expansive football when we're managed by Ben Benson and David Lowe next year.

Not a chance. Dreamland.

It’s a massive problem. It’ll be Judan Ali or someone even less qualified.
