at this stage no! I have said give him until end of the season and review from there. How many of us would have been recommend the England under 17's manager for the Rovers job when he got the Swansea job? Just imagine if Rovers appointed Adrian Boothroyd the England under 21 manager as Mowbray successor. Would you be happy with the appointment? Yes Norwich did appointed Farke but the man behind the scenes pulling the strings is their sporting Director Stuart Webber who put alot of behind the scenes infrastructure in place and training ground improves aswell as appointed Farke in the 1st place. Without Webber Norwich wouldn't have their success under Farke just like Wagner at Huddersfield who Webber appointed. Would you look to appoint Sporting Director and have Sporting Director/head coach structure? Its worked for Norwich and other clubs. Here a couple of questions for you to answer, If you were in charge of finding Mowbray successor what would your criteria be for the next appointment and would you look to appoint Sporting Director then allow him to bring head coach or would you appoint a manager? Also would you look for people to apply for the job or would you head hunt for the successor? Last question, would you bring in/listen to agent who offer a manager like a Wolves or Reading situation or ourselves seem to have done? Thanks in advance for answering those question

if we were top 2 and good form yes I would be happy but it still wouldn't be the same as being there in stadium and watching live with friends at Ewood Park and some away grounds. But I missed being at Ewood Park there in my normal seat. After being a season ticket holder for so long you get used to watching your team in that specific way and clearly it something you enjoyed doing. watching or listening from home on a regular basis isn't the same, I guess its easier if you are used to watching your team from home or mostly on TV cos thats the way you are supporting your team.

Harsh in his opinion but according to the rules it technically sent off cos Armstrong was going one on one with keeper and Brereton in support

I would have appointed Bowyer and Lambert. Appleton is doing a good job at Lincoln and I hope takes them up. I think Appleton would have done a good job if he had stayed longer here and Shebby wasnt around. When Berg was appointed I wanted Holloway to be appoint. But even going back to when Souness was appointed I wasn't sure about his appointment tho I did enjoyed his Sky punditry at that time. He won my over time and give me 2 great Rovers memories Hughes was someone I wanted so was very happy with his appointment, Ince appointment was the wrong one from day one. said that at the time. Allardyce appointment at that time was the right one and 18 months I was happy with him but after hearing he wanted out to coach in the middle East didint sit well with me and then I felt his negative football wasn't going to develop players like Hoilett, Olsson and Kalinic going forward. Wasn't against Berg appointment but he made a massive mistake by not bring in his own staff and he paid for that. When ever we have to appoint Mowbray's successor, we need a proper search and not limited to certain people from certain list.

His data analysis team would have seen it tho just our seen the Armstrong chance. So why did our coaching team complain at the linesman and the 4th official as the commentary said they did when being told that he was on side

oh well. He has been the best managerial appointment along with Lambert Venkys have made since being here.

and no comment from Stoke City Manager Michael O'Neill about our goal not being allowed due to ball going out. The Part you miss out every time!

why?

Rovers 1 nil win. With Elliott scoring

Yes he has been gone a long time from management but would he willing to drop to the championship and get a team promote if he could. Also who would be on his coaching staff as alot of regular coaching staff are in work already. People say no to Johnson but does he want to manager or just he see himself as coach and developing players same old names that have mention on here for years by fans. Cowley would be on my shortlist if we had vacancy and no restrictions with not being with a certain agents.

is it?

clearly new to the board. Some people have wanted him out for at least 2 years and even some since 11 games gone in League 1. blimey, I never thought we would get top 2 this season. Norwich invested and kept the team together mainly. Bournemouth and Watford still have PL quality. Then I thought Forest would be challenging top 2 with that squad under Lamouchi, How wrong was I? I thought getting a playoff place could be achievable this season.

Not really. very decent view and the commentators who seen a replay of it from our analysis department plus the reaction of Rovers coaching staff tell you it was onside.

Thanks for picture of it but not the best view or can give us a definitive answer. I havent seen any Michael O'Neill's comments complaining about our goal. Have you? This would be significant IMO he had but hasnt as far as I can tell. How can be certain until you see it from a PROPER angle?

Vaccination program is doing good. On targets for 15th February. More centres to open this week. Hopefully by August/September the entire population is vaccinate .

It's an interesting topic and which some people will use especially if they want a few drinks pre game and half time. Personally myself I wouldnt be interested but I'm sure alot of people would be interested in travel to and back from games

Kaminski Nyambe Lenihan Branthwaite Douglas Travis Davenport Holtby Brereton Armstrong Elliott

We are hoping that most of the country is vaccinate by then. I'm hoping we are back to normal by then and allow to attend Rovers in pre Covid times.

In the current climate and lockdown where we are told to stay home, protect the NHS and save lives. Most fans cant have a feel good factor cos we cant attend games sadly. If we could people might have it. Following Rovers right now is so very different and still strange from the normal way of watching games.

Well second half when Brereton came on ? Brereton played right and Elliott left

So have you a replay that says the ball was out of play before Elliott plays it back to Buckley? I've seen Michael O'Neill's interview with Sky Sports extended highlights of the game and doesnt mention the ball being out of play.

Here the BBC article on this.. Mark Hughes re-energised and confident of management return - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55691203 When he does return it will be interesting if he will bring Bowen and Niedzwiecki with him on his staff or use different staff.

Johnson role is 1st team technical coach. He also does alot of 1 on 1 training with the players. Plus individual video analysis work.

You mean Chris Rush? Doesnt leave until March..Rovers are advertising the position right now
