I thought that too. They're going to be slim pickings. Unless he wants to know things like 'how do you stay in a job with a run of 1 win in 14 games and 7 points from 42 available when you're supposed to be chasing promotion?'

Ok let's play post match TM excuses bingo so we can all feel like winners for a change. I'm expecting to complete all of these: Unlucky Didn't deserve that scoreline If Arma had scored the penalty If Johnson had scored that sitter Controlled the game/possession We go on I'm not worried, if we keep playing like that Bournemouth are a top side, something about resources, ex-Prem Had more efforts at goal Some sort of blaming of the players or individual mistakes Zero admission of having made any tactical mistakes

Armstrong isn't a very good penalty taker is he? Is that 3 he has missed? Jesus a penalty missed then an absolute sitter, this lot can't fucking buy a goal. I expect to hear about both as excuses in the presser.

Penalty goal would flatter us in the scoreline.

You not worried about this season yet?

If Mowbray doesn't resign before the next game, and he won't, I'll hate him forevermore. And I do mean resign, not get fired. The club shouldn't have to pay another penny to the man.

Just like the man of integrity promised us recently.

Unless this is your first game this season I expect you'd be owed a lot more. Can we expect to see a class action on missold football?

Pathetic from the Bournemouth player. Clutching his face because a short 18 year old pushed him in the chest. I'd honestly be embarrassed if I were him. Stupid from Elliott though, but at least he cares.

Dunno about 'credit', but I'm hoping some of them are on 'borrowed' time. The manager especially.

Commentator: 'Rovers get a second bite of the cherry' I wouldn't say we have had any bites of the Cherries today.

You should play for us. Sounds like you've got a rocket of a foot...

The only things Tony is going to try are our patience, and breaking the Guiness record for most players played out of position in a season. A record he already holds but wants to better.

I like it as a rule, personally (I know plenty don't, no need for them to tell me). I despise how Tony uses it. Tbh though he used to do all our subs by about the 70 minute mark. Somehow we were always lucky enough to not have anyone injured after that, but I kept expecting it to happen.

Ahh good, I was just thinking the time was right for a tall donkey on the wing.

Good question. How long does it take to demolish a training site and build an extra toilet on the other one?

Commentators just queried how long until Tony contemplates changes. Have they been paying attention this season? It's always just before, around or after the 60 minute mark, regardless of how things are going.

I'd need medication to sit next to TM during this drivel week after week, watching him gurn whilst we flounder and he repeats his mistakes.

At least his were right at the start in the middle of a season. Mowbray has had years to get his ducks in a row.

Dolan playing like he has been told to be more conservative with the ball if he wants to stay in the team. Mowbrayed.

Well if we start getting about 45% possession for the next 5 games or so, Tony will step down, regardless of points. But only then, when he has become a burden to the club.

Was it that bad? In my mind it wasn't quite that horrendous. Were there more draws in that than in our current run?

Thing is, teams know the 'beat Rovers blueprint'. Once they go 1 up, they're best just shoring up and showing minimal ambition to score again. As everyone except TM knows we are better on the counter. I believe this is the real reason for so many 1 goal defeats instead of 2 or 3 goal defeats. Not Tony's hard luck tales.

He isn't even close to being the only one.

Because he has finally started looking like he can play. Time to drop him.
