i think walton is the worst goalkeeper iv`e ever seen tbh,fatty foulks was more agile than him

here we f****g go?

we all know what will happen if stoke equalise?

mowbray should be telling them in no uncertain terms that stoke will not be as bad in the 2nd half

Evans, Lenihan, and Adarabioyo have been absolute rocks for us. Arma looks sharp, and Dack being as smart as ever.

Rothwell needs to go off. Got the impression in his post-match interview that he was knackered, and it's showing.

Downing and Nyambe are getting done on the flanks, somewhat.

rothwell should`nt be tired as a young pro,he should be able to do two games a week easily,though iv`e long had a suspicion fitness is lacking across the whole squad,how many times have we wilted when the opposition raise their game

dingles losing the the mighty palace?

Rothwell looks knackered.

tony rubbing his hands at the thought of subbing him?

garth crookes is a t**t,just had to get that out of my system!

Is it a coincidence results pick up when Graham leads the line?

not particularly,it`s about being positive and actually trying to win a game

??all hail the mowbray revolution

you can imagine mowbray in the dressing room at moment,shaking and sweating like an alcy on the wagon,having withdrawals from this usual negativity

Looking at that Stoke line up and bench, how the hell are they down there?

This is a tough game imo.

stoke will definately be turning the results round,just hope it does`nt start this week

excellent news,has tony had an awakening,just hope we keep up the same level as wednesday otherwise mowbray will relapse into his former self

Just now, Wegerleswiggle said:

How I think we will start today.

that how id`e line up,might be to progressive for mowbray in an away game though,it`s a bit disturbing we`ve no proper full backs,apart from nyambe and bell(if you can call him a full back)

What into ?........a footballer? He's onto a loser then?

is`nt a good manager supposed to get the most out of average players,kenny turned atkins and wilcox into key players,clough was a master at turning rejects and derided players into good ones,all about man management imo,hughes got the max out of emerton and bentley,iv`e never seen mowbray get the best out of anybody tbh,he goes the opposite way and drags them down with rigid formations and plays  them out of position,if you gave gallagher to a good man manager i can guarantee he`d look 3 times the player he does at the moment,admittedly he`s never going to break the scoring charts,but make the most out of him,get players round him who can benefit from knockdowns and use him at set pieces,ffs look at the size of him he should be terrorising defences from free kicks and corners

i`de love to have mitrovic,cairney and semi ajayi(he terrorised us when he played for rotherham last year) now playing for west brom,just the type of defender we absolutely require

the big question is,will tony revert to type with a tricky away game,got to play rothwell and armstrong out wide,britannia stadium is a big pitch and those two should surely find space,i was there last year when we nearly threw a 3-0 lead away,the first sign that all was not well on the mowbray front

i wonder if saturdays awful showing led to a massive argument in the dressing room after the match,there were a few frought exchanges after the final whistle,i would`nt be surprised if a few influential older players had a showdown with mowbray and told him what was wrong

There I was on Livesey not a bare arse in sight

the police stopped me on elf and safety issues?

i hope mowbray has now seen what a balanced side,with players in their rightful positions can do,this might be his epiphany,just worried about who will play up front on saturday,don`t think graham can do two games in a week,not sure how injured gallagher is,that leaves brereton,nothing against the lad,but iv`e never seen a profesional footballer look so lacking in everything or armstrong??

great news,i hope bennett goes into a strop and puts in a transfer request?

Wouldn't it be nice for Tony to say to the lads in the dressing room. "Forget about tactics and all we've discussed for this game. Go out there, play your own game, use your own football nouse, you are all professionals who love the game, enjoy yourselves with gay abandon."

the lads would have to drop an e in his pre match cuppa for that to happen

kind of get the idea if gallagher scored 20 goals a season(unlikely in the extreme i know) you`de still slate him,why not fire your ire at bennett,armstrong or "i don`t know where to stand on the pitch " nyambe,at the end of the day,it`s mowbray and his cracked idea of football thats to blame

Just now, roversfan99 said:

I might be wrong but I remember Gallagher playing up front more than on the wing this season, history is being re written that he is solely being played out wide.

do you actually go to the games??,he`s been played up front once,against preston and hey presto he scored twice!!!!!!!!!!does that not tell you something

lets put it concisely,gallagher is 6" 5,why would you put a player who looks like he should be playing in the back row for st helens on the wing,he should be wreaking havoc on centre backs with someone playing off him,it`s unfair to criticise him when mowbray continually makes him look bad with his godforsaken team selections
