Hibs 3 1 up at Rangers. Steve Kean will probably claim its his influence the odious little cretin.

Response from Rovers just received. Not sure how I feel about it to be honest. It appears to be the absolute minimum in terms of a response. I’d be interested to know what you guys think 🤔 

That's fair enough. Apology made on behalf of the players, however I direct apology from the players themselves would be welcome. In terms of what they have done to address it, often it's right to be kept within the camp.

A shameful night in this Clubs long history...I still can't come to terms with what I witnessed.

These morons on Twitter etc,have they no pride,don't they care what is happening at Ewood...have they no common sense?

What a way for our clown of a manager to celebrate the becoming the third longest serving post war manager., by delivering the worst home result in our history. He should give us all a chance to celebrate by handing in his resignation today and pissing off back to boro. 

Ready made excuse now. He'll say we were getting back into it before the red. This could be an embarrassing scoreline now

The tipping point could well be next Saturday , I think we will lose at QPR that leaves Reading at home next Saturday...

Lose that and his easy ride will come to an end , there won't be many from Reading and the shouts of Mowbray out will be heard ...

He needs and deserves to be hounded out , his welcome has been over stayed by at least 3 years ...

I highly doubt it. This journey is set to run its course till season end. Then there may be a glimmer of hope that we get a new captain at the wheel, who'll guide us to sunnier climes

Think chaddy said that "it was his understanding" that he was.

Rich Sharpe seems to disagree though.

Chaddy was adamant too. Said he trusted his 'source'. Probably nicko

Ourselves and Utd got the exact same amount of points after Cantona was suspended, so we were better than them when he was available.

A common myth that we only won the league because he got suspended, up there with buying the title etc.

If utd can use Cantona as an excuse for 95, you could argue we would have won in 93 had we not lost shearer to injury.

They're going down this year, aren't they?

1 draw and 4 losses to start the season. Ominous times. 

I think they had a bad start last year if memory serves me right, but hung on. Maybe it's time I started betting on Burnley to win, that should open the trap door far enough for them to fall through😂

I see a certain someone who was adamant that Mercer was wrong about Alex Neil, is now begging Nixon to tell him if he may get the Rovers job being he was at the game. 😂😂

Let's all laugh at Luton.

Pulis is still available, worryingly!

Good grief , that is a worry!!

It's something Venkys would do, which is a worry.

The earliest they should be thinking about giving him a new deal is at the end of the season, unless he has us on the most unlikeliest of automatic promotion charges or a sustained stay in the top 6, neither of which are happening.

He took us on an absolutely horrific run which lasted a good chunk of the season putting us as close to a relegation battle as he could.

He has form for these abysmal runs too, they aren't new. 

Barring a miracle, end of the season at the earliest should be the time they even consider handing him a new deal, even then it would have to be on the back of a terrific season.

Reality is, they should be looking and sounding out new managers right now.

Well it doesn't look like it will be Cooper. Wonder who's left on the HSH list??

In fact, where are the likes of Garrett and Whitehall who presumably won't be in tomorrow's team? Saadi presumably still injured.

And what about Phillips? Was he on international duty any longer than Annersley was? I can't see that tomorrow's bench would need Carter, Van Hecke (not sure if he is available again yet though), Magloire and Phillips.

Carter banned van hecke injured

See he has hit out at not getting maja done when he was in the building but has made sure to say it wasn’t the clubs fault. Think it’s safe to say he is pretty peeved at not getting deals done but doesn’t want to go all out for fear of losing his position 

Genuine question as I know at times you have info that comes to pass, but is it the clubs fault?? He states the reasons weren't financial so the club have done there bit as far as I can tell. So was it HIS fault and that's why he won't go into it. I sense we are finally, hopefully reaching the end of the Mowbray reign.

He’s a winger.

Yep but I'll guarantee that's not where Tony plans to play him. He'll be back up to Diaz and Sam hopefully. Just for clarity I'm not delighted by any stretch I want a striker too but at 2159 on deadline day that ain't gona happen now is it

Have you seen him play?

Yes a little at sheff utd but not a lot. I did say I was trying to be positive and maybe championship will be more his level. I'm hardly doing cartwheels fella. 

10 minutes ago, J*B said:

Hardly inspiring. 

OK trying to be positive. His goals to games at forest and Celtic ain't the worst but he's had some pretty poor spells abroad. Sheffield utd was in the Premier league which is different gravy. Maybe he could be worth a punt. I certainly won't write him off if he signs. Tbh I would rather give chances to Gallagher and Diaz upfront and he could be back up 

I really, really hope we get Obafemi and he bangs them in, if only just to see Chaddys climbdown. (don't think it'll happen though) 

2 minutes ago, chaddyrovers said:

Its 4 goals in 32 appearances. You want to simplified in just minutes than you do but doesn't give a proper refection of his game time in my opinion 

You don't half chat some nonsense lad. For what it's worth I'd much rather Obafemi than anything else that's been mentioned but I think that ship has sailed. 

Just now, callumrovers said:

Why, bagged 14 goals in championship last season.

It doesn't have me salivating but it's maybe the best we can do. There's that many rumours at the moment though they can't all be true. We'll see what happens in the next 24hours. Hoping khedra is off the table now as we seem to be fully stocked in that area.

Would that not be a "tactical" injury to make sure he doesn't pick up a knock before a sale?

Normally I would agree but I wouldnt be so sure the way this window is panning out for us 

Apparently missed Lincoln game at the weekend with injury. We know how to pick em.

Three at the back here we come. Although going off Mowbray’s comments yesterday he could drop Ayala.

What did he say about ayala? I must have missed that!
