What style of play are we set up for ? Mowbray’s had 5 years and he still hasn’t decided on one

Will he really be missed ? He’s hardly played this season.

I think Fergie is a class act off the pitch. I’ve heard of numerous real acts of kindness he’s done for people. On the pitch he likes to win. Nothing wrong with that. I agree Klopp is special in his outlook on life.

I can’t work out why the spiral happens every year at roughly the same time. Are they working the players too hard ? It doesn’t look like it.

Back to the game. I didn’t see it today but it’s another game we won when we scored first.

Really, maybe somebody should tell Nyambe that.

It’s handy to have some though when you need it. Especially at fullback

I’d give a lot to watch that game again. It was like playing the current City or Liverpool team off the pitch. Spurs were that good. Words can’t really do it justice, you had to be there. It was one of those game were you could have given every player a 10. Almost a once in a life time display. I was at the Forest game were we put 7 past them, that game was similar, only Forest weren’t in the same league as Spurs. Congrats on the Wigan win today, sounds like it was close at the end. I’ll be watching it later on catch up. I was watching my lot, they won 44-24.

They can’t afford him.

He’s not the name I’ve heard.

I’ve heard a manager not a million miles from where I live is going to Hartlepool. I think that might be below Mowbray.

I need to clean my glasses, I thought that said “ Lack of class from the extreme wing of the Tory-out brigade”.

Boo hoo, one thing you need out there is pace.

I’ve possibly been his biggest critic but that is no way to treat anybody. He deserves better from his employers.

Do you mean 1968-71 ? 1963, 64, 65 we were brilliant lots of the time.

It’s a poor show that we’ve come to the last match of the season and not a peep out of the Chicken Chokers.

I hope he does well but I’d be surprised if he gets off their bench next season. He.’s not ready yet. Just my opinion of course.

Next years team barring Brererton ?

Working on a players crossing should be a lot easier than working on their sprinting speed.

What is his natural position ?

We haven’t even mentioned the 7-2 banging we gave them.

I was brought up on the likes of Fred Pickering. Watching Barry Endean and Bryan Conlon wearing the same shirt was tough. As was watching Fred himself when he came back at the end of his career. Nearly as sad as seeing the magical Bryan Douglas coming on as a sub at the end of his time.

Get the Hoover out.

Yeah, it was real bollock selling Byrom. We spent a fortune on strikers after he left and all the time he was banging in the goals for Bolton. West Ham must have hated him, he always filled his boots against them, and Bobby Moore.

May 20th 1963. Att 22,867. Rovers Else Bray, Newton Clayton, Woods, England Douglas, Ferguson, Pickering, Byrom, Harrison scorers Ferguson 2, Harrison 1 I forgot to mention the other two young up and coming lads who were also brilliant that night. Keith Newton and Mike England. The future was really bright. Today they’d all have been poached away for a pittance after a few games. Back then at least we hung on to them long enough to get some serious money for them. Newton - British transfer record for a full back. England - British transfer record for a defender. Pickering - British transfer record between two British clubs. Only Dennis Law and Jimmy Greaves had been transferred for more when the both returned from Italian clubs. I was at the Bury game. We played like we’d been celebrating all week. Maybe we had.
