favourite tugay moment was against arsenal circa 2003, one nil up around the hour mark,deep inside arsenals half,tugay feigned to pass it out wide then arrowed a low shot,right in the corner,past the moaning git goalie lehman,it messed up arsenals title challenge as well,tugay was immense that day and gillespie tormented the arsenal full back van bronkhorst back so badly he was taken off at half time,tugay is deffo in the top five of my rovers legends,nearly as good as the immortal garner himself☺️

not sure how you know he`s not capable,unless your a regular at northampton

if mowbray rated him that much why has he spent the last 3 seasons elsewhere,the way we do business these days,it`s likely northampton will buy him for peanuts,get the very best out of him and sell him for big money,the alternative of course is mowbray tells the press that scott is going nowhere,then starts him at full back where he`s shown up badly,tony then says he`s not ready for the division and he`s never picked again,i can`t think of any young player that has progressed under mowbray,bar travis and he only got started because tony was short on numbers for a few weeks,if injuries and suspensions had`nt kicked in travis would still be banished to the u23`s after his red card debacle at portsmouth

he did`nt achieve the correct level of niceness required for a mowbray signing? that and being told he had to fight for a first team place,despite already being an experienced first teamer put paid to that signing

it helps dyche that turf moor is a tight little ground that makes it easy for that style,they ar`nt half the side away from home,it`s a s***hole where nobody likes going,like upton park,the old den and burnden park,they must have been worth 30 points a season to the home side

the only place for rothwell is just behind the centre forward getting into space and terrorising defenders with his pace,unfortunately tony does`nt play that way and if he did armstrong or dack would be ahead of him,therefore he`s had it,id`e be thinking of selling him,you basically can`t put him anywhere else,he`s not smart enough to play in midfield and despite his speed he`s useless out wide,all the full back has to do is show him inside and he obliges and turns backwards or into trouble

we will probably be ok because there are 7 or 8 teams worse than us,certainly don`t expect a top half finish next season

be very difficult for any player to learn the mowbray style,mature into their position and be assesed for niceness in the space of a month,i predict fisher or hilton will get the goalie jersey and the rest of the young lads will be propelled into the frey,there is`nt anyone signing,i guarantee that

maceo rigters must be up there,apparently very impressive in some dutch u21 side,i never saw him play but according to those that did he was absolute bilge,i still can`t believe we ***** a million quid on jordan slew as well,last seen getting shown the door by chorley?

does`nt exactly show ambition does it,if it`s true that is

most of us are nervous about who or what he`ll bring in,tony has had a nightmare in the last three transfer windows,lets be honest about that

ian holloway on qpr performance “To put it in gentleman’s terms if you’ve been out for a night and you’re looking for a young lady and you pull one, some weeks they’re good looking and some weeks they’re not the best. Our performance today would have been not the best looking bird but at least we got her in the taxi. She weren’t the best looking lady we ended up taking home but she was very pleasant and very nice, so thanks very much, let’s have a coffee” – on the “ugly” win against Chesterfield

ron atkinson get to him early doors and give him the reducer translated as foul the oppositions best player badly,as quick as possible,not applicable in todays contact free game btw

kevin arnott was a great player,he was a class above the division,came on loan from sunderland when he fell out with manager alan durban,unfortunately at the time there was no way rovers could afford the transfer fee or his wages,i think sunderland listed him at half a million quid or something,completly mental fee at the time when rovers could barely afford the electric bill for the floodlights

lets be realistic fellow fans,we are shopping in b&m bargains this season,not necessarily a bad thing imo,give tony some money and the results are a bit on the disastrous side,more concerning to me is the fact everyone in the club appears to be on holiday and no one is actively on the lookout for new players,they`ve just had 3 months off,we should be scouring the free transfer and any offers considered market

munro cost £400,000,just at start of jack putting his money,he must have thought ffs don aint half wasting my money ,added to the distinctly average steve agnew,who cost even more,jack must have thought i`ll have to get rid of don before he wastes even more of my fortune

if walton plays regularly next season i will drive to brighton and show my a**e at the falmer stadium?

wonder if mowbray will walk if he does`nt get an answer on transfer funds from mama venky,highly doubtful i think but you never know

to whoever offers them more money,i suspect dozens of them will end up playing reserve football in premier league super squads,you know the ones where they have 60 or 70 pro`s on their books,chelsea,city etc,the premier league will end up a closed shop and the rest of us will be left in oblivion,it`s probably a master plan by some crooked accountant

they have a salary cap in rugby league and look at the state of the game,anyone who`s any good buggers off to rugby union or the nrl

the problem with quinn was if it was`nt going his way,he used to put the white flag up and disapear into his own little world,on the occasions when he was on it he was a handful to deal with i agree perez was class,though i don`t think his family settled at all,i did hear something about how the weather used to get him down,though no doubt in this rovers era he was payed extremely well and this is britain,it will rain,a lot!!!!!

goalkeepers are coming?i hope

im`e sure there were plenty of bad signings from decades ago,paul mckinnon,viv busby,jimmy quinn(i never like him tbh) spring to mind,but they were signed for reasonable fees for the era and did`nt drain the finances by being on stupidly massive deals,the likes of best and murphy did`nt even put in the effort,thats why i hate them so much and for me the worst signings we`ve ever made,incidentally,keans love bunny bradley orr was`nt a bad player just the slavish devotion to his master that turned everyone against him

the crux of the matter is mowbray sold a good goalkeeper,could`nt find a replacement and brought a rubbish one in when panicking,rank bad management again that`s gone unnoticed by anyone in the shambles we call a boardroom,i just hope to god i never see walton within 50 miles of ewood again and he`s got some inflated view of himself that he thinks he can challenge for the 1st team jersey now the ?

mowbray to shearer "alan you`re not ready to play upfront,you need to learn the position,stick to the left wing until you prove to me that you can play through the middle!!"
