I reckon he might go for a left back, but that's it.

Apart from the Dack header where he scored the rebound, and that audacious Rothwell effort that was going wide anyway, I cant think of a save there keeper made? This game took me back to that period when we first got relegated under k**n where we picked up a few wins despite being utterly atrocious.

Didnt the fans forum present the idea to the club to market the post 12pm price as the actual match day ticket price, with the carrot of "save £3 on the match day ticket price if you buy before 12pm"? So still rip the fans off, but be nice about it.

Everything has already been said in this thread I think. I'll enjoy the 3 points, and fair play to the lads on the pitch for keeping there heads up to go in front twice more after twice being pegged back, could have easily shrugged there shoulders after the first equaliser and gone onto lose 2-1, afterall we have seen Mowbrays sides do that many times before. As for the rest of the game, good grief.

Its also starting to grate on me that he has to tell us that he's "honest and hardworking" in every interview, and that he's from a "working class background" like we are. Give it a rest.

It also states in the article that some players need to find consistency. Mowbray doesn't give them the chance too, Rothwell - 3 starts, all away from home, followed by numerous 20 minute cameos off the bench. Baffling.

On paper yes our squad is better than that one obviously, but our league position isn't showing much improvement at all from back then.

Probably a 10 minute cameo as a wide forward is my guess.

Unfortunately I imagine it will probably be miles off, no takeover is happening here, certainly not in the near future if ever.

If it was any sort of serious injury, i honestly think Mowbray would just shut up shop and tell venkys we can't continue as a club anymore.

It's strange. His record over the past 45 games since Preston away last year is pretty poor. 52 points from 45 games, so just enough to keep us out of that bottom three, with over 70 goals conceded in that time, two transfer windows and not a hint of a permanent deal for a defender. I just can't imagine he survives that anywhere else, are we all really still clinging onto that third division season?

This is my favourite quote from the article, of course you will move things around, you do it every bloody week, mostly for no reason at all!

Well, we finished 2 points off the play offs in 2014, thanks to a 12 or so game unbeaten run to end the season. Even in that run we do what we always do and bottled it when we got close, 3-1 up at Sheffield Wed to draw 3-3 in the last minute, then Brighton scored a last minute equaliser to draw 3-3 at Ewood. Then the year after, the best side we have had since relegation in my opinion, we finished 11 points off the play offs, so I have to agree that a "real manager" and not somebody learning there trade would have certainly gotten us into that top six that season. Now though, the squad is far too unbalanced to be near the play offs, it would take two really good transfer windows from a really good manager to get this side challenging next season. There's no way Mowbray would do it, and I can't see Venkys employing anyone good enough to do it either. We are truly screwed as long as they remain here, which they will do for a long time yet.

Better than that, it was Arsenals third string in the FA Cup.

It'll be interesting to see if Stoke make a move for Corry seeing as the manager knows him well and always picks him for international duty. I'm going to hazard a guess that they won't.

At a guess, Chapman has realised he's dropped a bollock by coming here, and is probably trying to get shipped out in Jan.

Two posts in a row from Parson Blue criticising the club just shows you where we are at the minute.

So to clarify, and don't answer in riddles please - Do you think the kick off is a suitable time for most people to go? Do you agree with the club marketing junior ticket prices when most will be at school? (No nonesense about inset days)

Be amazed if he gets any kind of run. He has Armstrong, Holtby, Downing, Rothwell, and probably Samuel & Brereton when fully fit ahead of him for the wide positions.

Perfect example of that, against Huddersfield I think it was. Injury time free kick just outside the area, Dack and Williams stood over it, after a few minutes of messing about, Dack side foots it straight into the middle of the wall, about chest height.

Yeah that is a fair point, and is the reason why I don't think it will ever happen. I do think they are missing a trick though. One of the nearest clubs to where I live is Port Vale, and they offer all kinds of flexi season ticket options, 6 game, 10 game, 15 game. They are all slightly more expensive pro rata per game than a full season ticket, but they work for people who can't make it every week and are still cheaper than buying on a match by match basis.

Completely agree, to be honest that would suit me down to the ground as I rarely make midweek games, and will probably miss the two games over Christmas this year. I probably make an average of 14/15 home games a season despite having a season ticket, so it's something I would definitely look at.

I'm probably wrong, but I can only recall Travis and Reed playing in central midfield together twice last season. Wigan at home and Derby at home, both resounding victories in that horrific run in February/March.

Footballers are right babys these days. He should have been sent home from the squad if that's what has happened, never mind dropped for one game.

Our next win will be Wigan at Ewood.
