I wouldn't say he doesn't deserve his job....yet. On the other hand I highly doubt he has what it takes to make us challengers - based on the style of football I have seen throughout his reign. He has a relatively pressure free (or should) end to the season now to prove he can change his ways. So I'm somewhere between just about deserves his job and reassess in summer. Had the question been is he the man to turn us into challengers next season, then I'd have been a no.

If I was playing in our back 4 and it was backs to the wall, I'd much sooner have Williams next to me than Bell. As said above by someone, coward of a defender.

The most bewildering thing is the 4 year contract we have given Mowbray.

By my reckoning a win today and we are guaranteed to be 3 points off 6th place and 4 points from 5th. This is due to Boro, Derby, Bristol City and Swansea above us having no game due to the FA cup, and Hull obviously coming to Ewood. Really is a big game.... Come on you Blues!

TM has described the first half as under par, personally I'd say it was about par for the first halfs at Ewood under his tenure. However we did up it a bit in the second half with Rothwell and Armstrong driving us forward, and did enough to get the win. Special mention for Jack Rodwell, absolute Rolls Royce of a footballer,particularly at this level. Fair play to Tony for getting him back to that level of performance, when many felt he was finished after Sunderland.

Looking at the amount of available seats online, I think I'd be doing away with the matchday price of £20 and leaving it at £10.

It's a recurring theme throughout his reign (at champ level especially) that is not being addressed.

Doesn't matter how many we play in there, we tend to look outnumbered. On Dack as someone above said, whatever fee he leaves us for, I don't see him ever commanding a higher one.

I don't think the fact that it was an individual mistake from Raya that let them back in the game can be argued. The point people are making (I think) is we weren't doing an awful lot to go and put the game to bed when Birmingham were a sitting duck. Also the criticisms of TM on this particular aspect are very valid in my eyes, 16 points dropped from winning positions this season (bottom club Ipswich have 14 points). Think where we could be if we had held onto half of those. He says maybe it's where we are at. I would agree with that if we were playing well and coming out with draws, the fact we are 5 points from the play offs without playing well for large parts makes me disagree with that statement.

It would be nice to hear Tony Mowbray say we have a problem with chucking leads away - and it will be dealt with. Rather than the "maybe this is just where we are at" interview he gave to Radio Lancs.

No problem mate, yeah I'll probably go to it as long as priced sensible.

Oh, well your a better fan than me Brucey, I like to enjoy the day out as well, which is obviously enhanced by a Rovers win. Had my enjoyment been solely down to results then I'd have thrown the towel in long ago.

If around £25million is offered, and Tony thinks that he will get even half of it to spend, then the highest bidders hand should be snapped off.

I think I'd rather have it as it's a nice ground, we could well take a couple of thousand if the pricing is right (especially coming after two of the championships pricier away games). Chance of winning if we take it seriously. Much more appealing than being at Ewood with 2 stands closed and a few thousand home fans in, all in my opinion anyway.

The more I think about it, the more I see it as a good draw. They tend to price there cup games very reasonable at St James as well.

Got to say never really noticed Pearson stand out too much on television. Today though, wow what a player, very impressed.

Certainly a derby in my book, infact Deepdale is best part of 2miles closer to Ewood than Turf Moor.

Imagine sales will be over 4k by close of play Saturday, especially if we can get a positive result v Rotherham.

I got 9 together on row 27 of block L which is second block, at around 1430 today.

The way Lewis Travis slotted Into a defensive role at WBA last week was very impressive. Should have nudged him up the pecking order. Rovers 3-1 QPR. Come on you blue and white warriors.

6 points from the QPR and Rotherham games and I reckon we may sell out. Big ask, but this group of players well capable.

His effort in every game should give him positive sentiment, absolute workhorse. As you say with the quality of Reed beside him, it's a strong middle of the park.

For a week after the Oxford game, season tickets should have been available for pre order at say between 200 and 250 pound for renewing season ticket holders, and people that attended the Oxford game.

Yes, even when he's out wide you can tell he has been tasked with chasing down across the opposition back 4 and closing keeper down, saves Graham's legs.

It's not rocket science to me, we move Bennett to right back and the opposition play through us far easier than when he's higher up the pitch hounding them. He sets the tempo for the pressing and others follow, that was absent last night.
