Praying that Cunningham happens, the starting defense is now: Cunningham, Lenihan, Tosin(in a week or whatever) and Nyambe . Compare that to Bell, Lenihan, Mulgrew and Bennett. It is day and night

I really don't get this element of Mowbray's management. He treats older players like they need to be protected and then drops bombs on younger players. Surely it should be the other way round

Cunningham would be a very nice addition. One more centre back and I will take everything back haha

Tony must be baffled by other clubs making transfers. "Steve did you see Leeds brought in a player on deadline day." "I know Tony, madness" "Don't they know new signings take time to settle in and have to fight for the first team. No player in this world could displace Elliot Bennett from my team in less than a month"

But he must know that if we don't sign anyone today then his comments have built up more frustration. Surely the club isnt this dense. I expect maybe one defender in today then.

Judge at the end of the window Defenders are coming Mowbray has a plan #ReturnOfTheHappyClappers

League 1 standard

There must be some decent loans available still. At this point any one would be welcome to the defence

I think you are right Mercer. However, the club needs to be careful in not hyping up expectations too much. Some of the comments from Waggott and Mowbray have seemed to imply the existent of more money then there is. Then when the transfers don't happen people are confused and annoyed

So if that is the case from bullshitter in chief Waggott, then it is a managerial decision, not a finicial one, to not sign a quality defender. On that basis Mowbray is setting himself up for the sack

Hmmm cheap and a last minute decision to sure up a defense leaking goals. Not quite on the soundness of this plan

To be honest. If we could have sold Dack for something around 12 million I would have lept at the chance. If we would have invested that in two quality defenders I would have backed us for a promotion push

Biggest transfer of the year for us. Mowbray out and Damien Johnson in as head coach.

Aye no disagreement here, I don't disagree with Paul either, obviously the attack didn't perform. Everyone can weight it differently. For me personally I am more disappointing in the defence than the attack

Did I say it was? Just a balance of probabilities. No attack scored 2/3 goals a game but many defences can keep a clean sheet at home against a promoted team Even good attacking players have off days. City relied upon a Kompany wonder goal to win the league. But if those off days are coupled with a leaky defence then we get performances like today

Oh I get the argument, I am arguing that maybe it is more realistic to expect the defence to get a clean sheet once in a while rather than expecting the attack to be scoring 2/3 goals every game. Do you follow that one?

Ayy and if we hadn't had conceded two poor chances then we would have won today.

Is Amari Bell the only defender that Mowbray has purchased that started today? Bloody hell, thinking about that he really is inept at organising defences

Yeah I will give them 1%, Bennett 10% and 89% to the clueless dinosaur in charge

The truth is we could have not bought Gallagher and played Ben up front and have got the same amount of chances today. What the flying fuck is our transfer policy? Who decided 5 million on another striker was the right thing to do?

If he doesn't drop Bennett after this game just end the season now. Sick of watching the dinosaur in charge of our club

Come on now. Mowbray is a football genius. Who else could have picked Elliot Bennett when we have Nyambe?

The fact that we are playing the same defence as we did last season tells us all we need to know Mowbray saying defenders are coming and then getting one player in one loan is a fucking shambles and terrible management Hahahah pathetic

Right I am of to bed, past midnight on this side of the world, praying for a 3-1 come back. Dack, Gallagher and Rothwell Feeling the 2-1 loss though, and if that unfortunately happens, maybe some people will finally open their mind to the possibility Mowbray might not be all that
