  1. How dare you question Mowbray. He's a man of integrity that would definitely walk if he felt he'd taken the club as far as he could.
  2. Yorkshire account for Root and Rashid (and occasionally Bairstow, although he shouldn't really) being away - like we do with Anderson and Buttler.
  3. Give him support and I think he can.
  4. I mean three Academy graduates refuse to sign new deals - Lenihan, Travis and Nyambe. If they don't have loyalty to the club, who does?! We're a shambles under Mowbray.
  5. Young, promising L1 players is exactly where we should be spending our money. The trick is identifying the ones that can push on to play at the next level.
  6. If only they had the power to replace him.
  7. They were trying to sell us to anyone with cash. Remember Ali Syed? They weren't bothered whether the new owners were fit and proper.
  8. I disagree with that. As much love as I have for Jack Walker, I hate his kids and the Walker Trust for selling us to these absentee owners.
  9. Sadly the last decade has proven that the fans are irrelevant to the Venkys. Attendances have tumbled off a cliff, but they don't give a fuck. We could boo him for 90 minutes every match - they'd only notice if it was a televised game. Even then I don't think they'd be to bothered.
  10. Based on how the media think we lined up tonight, we've played 4 formations in 2 matches. Started as a 4-3-3 on Saturday. Switched to a 4-3-3 with a False 9. Finished the game in 5-4-1. Looks like we played 5-3-2 tonight and switched to a 4-3-3 at the end. We're simply not good enough for that - just get the team playing well in 1 formation, that's all you need at this level.
  11. I believe that's the first time we've lost to Morecambe too - another record for Mowbray.
  12. Unbelievable dive, but that's the game these days sadly.
  13. He played three different formations at the weekend. He seems to think he's a football genius, when all you need in this league is a few athletes in a well organised team.
  14. Can't even keep a clean sheet against Morecambe. 🤣
  15. Derby 2-0 down against Salford. How much longer can Rooney survive as a manager? He's awful.
  16. It's an opportunity for Mowbray to try out a 5-3-2. He's been dying to use 3 at the back for a couple of years - even though 4-3-3 has been our most successful formation.
  17. Each to their own, but could you keep your private life private, please?
  18. Danny Ings just went for £25m. He's a significantly better player. But each to their own, Armstrong walks on water for some.
  19. £15m + Obafemi is an absolute steal. £15m for Armstrong is crazy money.
  20. Yes, we're a shockingly run club. Well identified.
  21. I envy their recruitment team. I still hate them.
  22. They have no Academy. They're a leech of a club.
  23. I'd genuinely rather break his legs than let him go to Brentford. I hate their model with a passion. It's killing football.
  24. That's their problem, not ours.
  25. This is why I can't understand our stubbornness over the fee. The player's head has been turned. We have no leverage as a club as he's in the last year of his deal. We'll never get such a good offer for such a limited player (there's absolutely no way he's a PL player - and you can quote me on that every time he scores fro his new club). If £12m is the best deal on the table, take it and move on - it's the best for all parties involved. Loan in a striker to replace him.
