I read somewhere that McCullom, good player as he was, has never coached before. Can that be right ?

He’d put £1000 behind the bar in “ The Flying Horse “ in the centre of Rochdale. I missed out ! I’m surprised it wasn’t “ The Baum “ in Rochdale, , he used to drink in there a year or two ago. Along with Lisa Stansfield. He also put £1000 behind the bar of one of my favourite Manchester pubs, “ The Briton’s Protection “.

Nobody with any interest to Rovers.

I’ve heard another name mentioned in respect of the Hartlepool job. I can’t say who. Let’s just see If I’m right.

Me too. I thought they were invaluable. Better than Alf Thornton.

Davenport never really got a chance. It’ll be interesting to see what happens next in his career.

Anybody in a two, against four or five, will be very very bad.

I think Johnno’s ship has sailed since he got his drone pilots licence.

Not forgetting Darren Peacock, Anders Andersen, Tore Pedersen, Callum Davidson, Alan Fettis,Kevin Davies, Dario Marcolin.

Exactly, anyone with half a brain and in business would run a mile from the bad publicity the Chicken Chokers bring.

Mm, would Mowbray’s name have been in either of those polls last time ?

He’s not in the Ayala league regarding injuries but he is prone to muscle strain. That’s another problem with playing Dack at the moment, you know he hasn’t got 90 minutes either.

He needs another bang on the knee that he can walk away from. That’ll help him get his confidence back. Speaking from personal experience I needed a kick on the leg that I could walk away from. I got a kick on the leg that I couldn’t walk away from.

No. Is he any better than what we’ve already got ? That’s got to be the criterion for our signings.

Thanks for that Tony. It’s been a long season. See you next time hopefully.

Was there a pre injury Steven Reid ?

Not many people make it in higher level pro football starting out at that age. There are exceptions though.

I wouldn’t want Cocu to get the job but if he did there’s an outside chance he might be successful. There’s no chance of that with Mowbray. As we’ve just found out.

All basic techniques that any decent amateur right back can do. Having said that Simon Grayson couldn’t pass the ball down the line successfully either.

It’s a nightmare. If you had told me 12 years ago that this is how Rovers would be run I would have laughed in your face.

Sounds like Rovers under Mowbray for long spells.

I wouldn’t be surprised.

They’ve got already relegated Watford away, if they can’t win that they deserve to go down.

If you have a manager and you can’t trust his judgement - fire him and get one you can.

Didn’t LeSaux get one like that in the rout of Notts Forest ?
