  1. Sheff wed and Leeds ...I think there's a fair chance we won't be picking up 6 or 3 points out of that ... 1 if we are lucky I have been a fan of Mowbray I think he turned the club around and we would of stayed up had he been appointed earlier than he did , but he's gone Into Wenger territory now , blindly ignoring our defence while adding attacking midfielders like a kid in a sweet shop , but...... His time is now coming to an end , I really hope the club do him a favour and release him now while he still holds some respect from Rovesr fans
  2. My big annoyance with Mowbray (or his teams) is we just cannot hold on to a lead , I've lost count of the times we've taken the lead and not picked up all 3 points , the amount of times we concede goals at ridiculous times and how we never seem score after 90 mins to rescue a game... It's got to be a mental thing, like he pays no attention to coaching concentration because I genuinely believe the talent is there in this squad to be pushing for a play off place
  3. Chris Hughton for me. Think Hughes will always be well thought of here but Hughton is the man with an impeccable record of getting team promoted from this league
  4. Really starting to Lose patience with Gallagher now .. That stat of not scoring a league goal for 630 days really is quite worrying
  5. Might be a good time to go with 3 at back , bring Tosin in and play Bell or possibly Downing at left wing back
  6. Never been convinced by this goal keeper , I said at the time it feels like he's a stop gap until we signe the one Mowbray really wants next summer ... I would much prefer Nyambe at right back instead of Bennett but that said we have improved defensively this year as a collective unit , midfield is looking pretty decent now , Travis Johnson Holtby Buckley Downing (when needed) and Evans gives us good coverage there . Where we are clearly struggling at the moment is goals Dack Armstrong Gally Rothwell And Brereton just aren't producing at the moment for one reason or another and if that's still the case come January some surgery need to take place there
  7. I am excited about this transfer , think he is better than anything we could of dreamt of back in June
  8. Scared of flying ???... Wouldn't be the first footballer to sail or drive across the continent
  9. We are still the only club to have who the FA Cup 3 years in a row , how lovely would it be to be the first (only) team to win it in 3 centuries
  10. I would rather see Rovers win FA cup than Prem no I am not mad or on the wind up , but I have seen Rovers win the League , I have seen us win the league cup , I have seen us win play offs , play in Champions League and Murder Burnley ,the one that's missing is the FA Cup and I want us to win it soon , I am sure there is a stat somewhere that there are only 5-6 teams that can actually win the FA Cup in 3 Centuries and I want us to be the first
  11. Going in car .. Any recommendations on parking
  12. Warnock is a wily old goat , if he can exploit a weakness in an opposition he will , Hoilett will play left for them not right , Warnock knows his pace and trickery will cause Bennett a problem and hopefully entice a silly foul or 2 , if Bell plays he will expose his lack of concentration and not play an out and out winger , somebody like Joe Ralls who drifts around the pitch will play there or a big strapping centre forward
  13. Play Bell or Hart at left back or upset Williams and his developing partnership with Lenihan .... Tough choice if it was a straight choice between those 2 options I would be playing Williams at left back . there is of course another option of playing Tosin in a back 3 and using Bennett and Downing as wing backs ?????
  14. With hull danger coming from the flanks , it wouldn't surprise me if Nyambe came in at right back and Bennett played in front of him with Cunningham and Downing on the opposite side Travis and Johnson in midfield again and Dack left to support Graham Gally Rothwell and Armstrong waiting on bench if it all goes wrong
  15. Lost the dressing room at Chorley wasn't strong enough and the players there began to take piss ... U23's may be different
  16. I expect a more defensive line up Saturday , Nyambe in at right back Rothwell back on bench Bennett squeezed into the midfield 5 somewhere along with Downing Dack Travis And Johnson and Gally up front
  17. I think Mowbray is heading into souness territory here , falling out with players , strange signings , strange tactics. A defeat tonight and he has to get get results in some pretty difficult games
  18. Voted neither good nor bad not a good window because we havnt addressed all last seasons weaknesses not a bad window because we havnt lost the Crown Jewels I.e Dack & Lenihan
  19. When I first stating watching rovers (1983)John Lowey was part of the team , always seemed to be him or Colin Randall partnering Simon Barker in midfield , I am mid 40's now and it's sad that now makes 3 of that team no longer with us After Noel Brotherston and Chris Thompson ?
  20. I am sure a lot of clubs looked at him during the window but I guess his wage demands were too high ... Now the Window's over those demands may be a lot less
  21. My guess is frustrated at his own performance on Saturday he Reacted badly when pulled up by Mowbray in the dressing room , probably said something he shouldn't of done and Mowbrays decision was made for him ..... Just incredible we didn't move to bring in a replacement in the 4-5 days after that ?
  22. I agree..but this has been such a strange window. I can actually see it happening
  23. The re-signing of Rodwell would actually seem quite logical and sensible considering the madness of this window
  24. Fwiw I think Cunningham is a massive upgrade on Bell and. Wiliams , just in shock that A c/b hasn't come in and were potentially losing another one ?? what is Mowbray thinking ????? ..... Has he recently signed a new deal and looking to be sacked
