tony`s got no intention of even trying to get promoted,look at the players he`s assembled,most of them are shrinking violets who`d run away in a pub fight,having a crack at promotion means getting hungrier players which means more work on the management side and training ground,he`s happy keeping us in the division

i expect a record number of square passes,stoke sitting really deep then in their only attack they get in behind the massive amount of space that exists between our midfield and defence,0-1,in the second half they get a free kick which they whizz into our box,lenihan goes missing and their centre forward has an easy header,we then give up and spend the last twenty minutes looking totally clueless,tony is sat down with his comfy coat on wondering why they hav`nt waved the flag with his face on it for a while on the other hand,we might just have on of those games that get everything wondering about the play offs again!!!!!!!!

he might very well be better than carter and most likely is,just the fact that mowbray previously has stated young lads who are central defenders usually ar`nt up to it physically ,then he goes and signs an 18 year old with very little experience,unless he`s the second incarnation of a rio ferdinand(if he was then he`d be on the verge of the everton first team)it`s a desperate move by a man who`s run out of ideas,not that he`s ever had much of an idea about defending,astonishing as he was a very good one as a player

he had to learn how to play in the middle from evans and smallwood😊 seriously,he continually sent wharton out on loan because he said he was`nt a man,sends the underused carter out on loan and lo and behold brings in an 18 year old who`s played nine times for carlisle,this smacks of desperation,incompetence and double standards,at least as a defender he can`t nullify him like he`s gradually doing with elliot

it`s the only motivating factor for me to go back to ewood,im`e certaintly not going expecting free flowing attacking football😒

tony is having a freerole without the fans to critique his underwhelming tactics,as long as we amass a few points against the basket case teams im`e sure he`s happy to meander through another season,avoiding those bullies in the top six

a damning indictment of the club that we can`t afford to buy a player from crewe!!!!!!!!!!!!!though it could be an excuse if the lad has`nt passed the mowbray scale of fit and proper person,i.e is he a bit of a handfull to manage,is he ambitious,does he get forward to much,can he play out of position and has he got a bit of devilment about him,if the answer is yes to any of them then he`s failed the test and won`t be welcome at brockhall or ewood,likes an easy life does our tony,can`t be having anyone who might improve us,stick to the has beens and never will be`s,makes his life easier,as for that top six,**** that,far to much hassle and pressure

watching mowbrays tactics would make me go back inside and switch bargain hunt on😉

deli ali has one of those faces you just want to hit with a cricket bat🥵

no crowd at marine apart from everyone in the houses at the back of the ground watching from over the fence,love it😆

i don`t think the leeds goalkeeper will get much game time after this🙂

i worded it wrong,i meant a left back who can play football,as long as a centre back can head it,tackle and boot it a long way,thats ok by me,there ar`nt many hansens or baresi`s around and they certainly don`t ever play for blackburn!!!!!!!!!

in essence it`s a simple game,if you asked everyone in the current squad what their job is i bet none of them could give you a straight answer because they don`t know theirself,mowbray is extremely guilty of overcomplicating everything and he`s not got the coaching ability to get his instructions through to the players. there are some positives though,the quality of players we have is`nt bad and if tony did leave it would be a quick fix for a half decent manager to get into a winning habit,a centre back and a left back who can actually play football is all thats needed

Rubbish Philipl. For me, he hasn't lost the dressing room. Mowbray looks frustrated. Of course he is interested in the job. He is nothing like Kean or Coyle but someone who wants to get the club back to PL whilst building the club infrastructure in the background he did`nt look frustrated yesterday,more a look of sleepiness and "i could`nt give a ****" or "i can`t bothered giving out instructions to my players cos im`e nice and snug with my big coat on" the guy has lost the plot,the dressing room and everyones respect

good point,i can`t see the hard working folks of blackburn and surrounding areas pay £20/25 admission as a walk on to watch at the moment tbh(if we could that is!!)

it`s getting to the point where they could put ben benson in charge and id`e think it was ok,really sick of the predictable **** every week,eventually the mowbray death spiral will become continuous and we`ll be dragged into a relegation fight,with some of this squad and mowbray i would`nt want to be in the trenches with them

did`nt tony say he would walk if he though he`d taken us as far as he could??,well that moment has arrived and take buckley,pears and the other flotsam and jetsom with you at your next club

mowbrays comments after this game might just send me into meltdown

daft as it sounds i can see us equalising and it going to penalties!!!!!!!!

mowbray is very lucky the fans can`t attend,even the happy clappers in the jack walker stand would have turned by now

he has`nt got it simple as that,nothing against the lad but this level is far to much for him

at the moment im`e really struggling to be enthused with anything that rovers do,not saying mowbray does`nt have a couple good points but this is the most boring rovers side ever,i would`nt mind so much if we were totally lacking in ability but it`s far from the case

hav`nt we got indoor facilities at brockhall??sure iv`e seen them

pears is the son of mowbrays ex team mate and friend stephen pears,loves a bit of nepotism does our tone!!!!!!!!!!!

whats he done ???
