Walking football will get you relegated in this league.

I live in Rochdale m1st and what happened with Keith Hill is the same as what's happening with Mowbray at Rovers. Dull football, weird formations, some dodgy signings, players being played out of position all the time, Henderson, who's their Rhodes being played in midfield, talking bollocks to the local press etc. I don't think Hill is a bad manager but he'd got complacent at Rochdale and thought he was unsackable. Basically he'd been there too long. He will probably do ok at Bolton. They'll go down almost certainly but he'll get them back up next time. The difference is they had a board that could see the writing on the wall and binned him before it was too late. Appointing Barry Murphy was a brave move but it's paid off for them.

I'm dabbling with learning Spanish also. I'm not very good. Buenos Dias Alejandro.

No. Even when we were outclassing teams in our promotion season we only just did enough most games.

The " lack of fight " has dogged us for a long, long while now and Mowbray has done nothing to remedy it. He's the one who signed a team of push overs - nobody else.

It was clear as day when Gallagher was here previously he couldn't be Danny Graham Mk 2 as long has he had a hole in his bum.

Me too. He'd done nothing since he left Ewood.

I'm expecting Gallagher to start on the wing.

How many players have we got out injured at the moment ? Do they really want to play for us ?

If we were a normal club he would have been fired last season during that terrible run. We haven't really improved since that time. The football on show is dull, turgid, uninspiring and ultimately unsuccessful. The entertainment value is pretty low. He's been backed by the owners to a decent extent but we've been completely hamstrung by his inability to sign a Graham replacement in terms of being a goal threat. I wouldn't have signed Brererton and I wouldn't have signed Gallagher, certainly not permanently for large fees. This isn't being wise after the event , one or two of us said so at the time but got shouted down. Having two big signings completely fail should be reason enough for him to go in any other walk of life. This latest style of possession orientated walking football is the final straw for me. It's not exciting, it's not good to watch, it's not leading to many goals and at the end of the day it's easy to play against.

Better still.

Get a tenner on it.

I used to think Pedersen was a MOTD player. He'd do a couple of brilliant things, after that he was anonymous.

But you wouldn't want to bet on him keeping us up this time. I wouldn't anyway.

When I watched England play the other Friday night I said that Dack looked a better player than Mount.

Ok, what are the rest of the team doing with that space he's created ?

We were on TV.

Any scout watching him on Saturday would have gone home 10 minutes before the final whistle. He was never in the game second half and he seemed to have lost that change of pace he has since he got back to grips with his " downfall ".

10/10. We're going nowhere with these absentee owners.

That's why the Chicken Chokers are idiots. We should be paying for the best manager we can afford not shopping around in Pound World. Who has more influence over the fortunes of the club than your manager ? Therefore that should be a key investment. I'm done with Mowbray. I'll nail my colours to the mast.

I'm still puzzled as to why it was removed in the first place.

I wouldn't mind another Andy Burgin at left back now. A very neat and tidy player who had a fair bit of pace.

In industry if you blew £12 million on some machinery that didn't work you'd be long gone by now. I did some work for a US company 20 years ago, we built a £1 million machine to the yanks design that never worked. The chief designer over in the US got fired.

We used to have a saying about head down players like Armstrong. " He dribbles when he comes to a pair of feet ".

I'm getting ready to start looking over my shoulder. Our home form is terrible. Win your home games and normally you'll be OK even if your away form is poor. Struggle at home and normally you're looking at the drop.
