Reminds me of McDonald's in the 90s

I'd take him on a free for sure. Don't think the fact a few rovers players follow him on social media means much though. He'll have played with Johnson at Leeds for a start.

Pompey friend of mine said the same. Need to avoid him, especially given they'll want upwards of a million that we don't have for him.

Think he's off to Watford from what I've read

Just need to sell Brockhall to pay for his wages

I'd take that more as him being facetious and Mowbray having control over pretty much everything at the club. I'd prefer your take of course...

Here's to hoping nothing comes up for him in the summer and he comes crawling back

Must have poached him from "FootballLeagueWorld.co.uk" or another of those god awful news/views regurgitating websites

The lads articles don't read particularly well for me. It's written like someone who has stumbled into journalism and has a thesaurus by his side for the entirety of his articles and still chooses the wrong words. Is merit even fitting grammatically? Credit perhaps. Not that TM deserves any for his absolutely tragic management last season.

Would like to believe that. To me it reads like a man very comfortable in the knowledge that he's lowered the expectations of the owners massively. I think he probably believes in his deluded/senile old brain that the majority of the supporters back this attitude too. Oh how he'll find out how wrong he is when we inevitably go 1 down to a newly promoted/bang average team in the first game back at Ewood.

....eh?

Is Lenihan really worth a new contract? We've been terrible defensively for the last 3 seasons and he's been the main constant in said defence. Apart from protecting an asset that could draw a couple of million at the most, I'm largely uninspired with the idea of him hanging around on another long term contract

The fact that I felt completely unmoved by a 5-2 win yesterday shows just how much damage Mowbray has done this season. I imagine many others felt the same. I fear the season ticket sales for next season will make for tragic reading

This thread has gone from Mowbray and co definitely going to him being in discussions with new signings. What a rollercoaster. What a depressing rollercoaster.

Agreed. I never expect goals anyway when we have the £12 million cows arse banjo express on the pitch. Their collective output should be enough for a sacking as it is.

No

With a normal club I'd be okay with this as I'd assume they were taking their time in order to source an immediate, high quality replacement. In this case however, I just assume that when/if they do sack him it will be a decision that no-one else at the club knows about and we'll end up with Paul Jewell in charge

When Neil got sacked by Preston the other week there were media reports of it happening the day before, not a whiff of that about Mowbray at the moment. Would love it to be that he gets sacked, can't see it unfortunately

Just like the rest of us

Slight concerns about Wilder's lack of a plan B, but from the options available I'd say he'd be a good fit. Weren't we in for him before he went to Sheffield United? Surely must be still on the radar if so.

I've thought that a few times about games recently, as it has tended to be the Mowbray way of plucking a result out of nowhere when most needed, only to be proved wrong. Feel like it's gone beyond that now, I'm fully expecting a limp 2 or 3 goal defeat and some of the teams below us picking up wins to make that international break even more uncomfortable.

Mowbray trolling us all with that interview. He's going nowhere, the sneaky bugger

Oh we've struggled because of injuries and covid, have you not heard we're the only club in the Championship with those issues. We'd be top six otherwise, the manager is sure of it.

We're not getting mauled at the moment, we're just shite. But half of our problem at the moment is it's a relatively young squad and has little know how, whether that's from the manager or their own experiences of how to tackle games. It's partly why we keep losing by the odd goal. I appreciate the notion about the young players, Wharton surprised me with how he played (after a dodgy substitute appearance against Watford), but Carter looked well out of his depth at the end of last season. JRC jury still out, Dolan burst onto the scene but largely ineffective since his goal against Preston, though would have liked to have seen him get a start again at some point. Magloire had one good friendly appearance. We need a core of better experienced players than we have to help the young ones on, that's the big thing that needs to change in the summer (asides from the manager at the very latest)

Basically an u23s team with a couple of older players sprinkled in. They'd get mauled.
