Those people on social media all like a reason to hate. They always find a common cause. Enough idiiots follow it, it becomes a disease. It is the football hooligism of the modern day. Real fans dont hate players of the team. They may dislike some, they may disagree with the manager picking them.

There isnt hate, I think Mowbray over relience on him playing in positions where the fans think there are better players has counted against him. Nyambe overlooked for Bennett last season is a prime example. It gave him the image of a teacher's pet and it is that many dont like

Dont see a hate comment. All that said was Bennett main reason for being in the squad was his positive attitude and experience.

Hes not meant for the first XI but gives options and experience from the bench

I think if Bennett hadnt picked up the injury I think he may have been surplus to requirements but him getting injured changed all that

Thats what Mowbray has been saying, if the budget allows once the dealings have been done then he'll do a deal for a player that the deadline does not count. For the first time in a long time its a decision that made sense. No point wasting time and money on a bit part player before getting in players that were wanted but were on a deadline

One spot left for Downing

I guess now the deadline has passed, contracts have to be addressed

and Downing can't? Also not as injury prone as JRC. Personally I wouldnt sign Downing but Im looking at reasons why Mowbray wants to

Yes but from the bench he gives you full back cover for left and right where Bell only gives cover at left back. He also can give experience in midfield defensively that Buckley and Rothwell dont. As a sub he gives options that present squad may take two or three players to cover defensively so allowing more attacking options from the bench.

He'll make the bench as we haven't got much cover who could fill in at full back other than Bell or JRC. JRC could gave you cover but little experience

The only two places I can see for Downing are a. Is left back cover b. Coming off the bench as midfield cover late in games as the old head. Johnson will pick up bookings so in some games it maybe necessary to take him off and we may need a wily old campaigner to help close out a game.

Mowbray has said as much this week on Radio Lancashire.

If Charlie had left shortly after promotion he would remembered as a legend but the way the last 18 months has been managed has tarnished it. Hopefully for Fleetwood fans will see Mulgrew lead them to success and he is not there for one last payday like Murphy was here.

Just a touched worried that we are getting carried away until tomorrow's team is announced when Evans is the midfielder, Bell is at left back and Sam Gallagher is on the wing.

We knew Douglas was considered. Old news.......and nothing new. Nixon only stating what was on here a couple of weeks ago

He destroyed Hendry that game, not many did. IMO Martin O'Neill stiffled Heskey by teaching him to go down when a defender came close. Although he had a good career, I agree he never reached his full potential that he showed in that game.

How can Sky make it look like we scored with 4 lucky breakaways?

On today's performance you can't drop anyone for Dack. Can Dack play left back?

Who excelled at the level above which he bought for? Dack or Whiteman? Neither had played nevermind excelled in Championship so if you cant grasp there is ALWAYS a link about money and expectations and risk then Im sorry.

Sorry for being so thick. Can you explain in basic English what you are trying to say please? It is posters like you why so many have left here. Cant discuss just revert to insults and put downs.

If I was taking this summer as a one off I'd agree but there does seem to be a trend following each window of frustration

or get the player to back his own talent by increasing pay for targets acheived

Course it has. If the league one player has never played above that level then it is a gamble. I know any signing is a gamble but risking your whole budget on a player never to have played at your level is just too high a gamble especially when we need to cover over positions as well. For those quoting Dack, Dack was signed to play at the level he had excelled not at the level above.

But it isn't is it? Paying £250,000 for a player is not as much of a gamble as paying £2,000,000. If we have a set budget then blowing the lot on one player from a League 1 is a massive gamble especially with the number of players we have in midfield.
