  1. Well I wouldn't take Coyle over Mowbray, and you don't do yourself any favours with a comment like that. Its because we are afraid Venkys will come up with another Coyle that so many are hanging on praying for Mowbray to come good. However we are getting beyond this point right now, I'm afraid.
  2. You can tell how bad things are. The usual Mowbray fans are nowhere near the MB.
  3. January said it all. No signings = no ambition. Its not as if there were no gaps to fill! The players have adapted accordingly, we are not pushing for promotion, we are "consolidating", satisfied just to stay up. In their minds they are coasting to season's end. That's pathetic for a team that, despite its deficiencies had a good chance of making the 6. Yet Mowbray is quoted tonight as saying "when you stand still you go backwards"!!!!! We know that, we've always known that. You really could not make it up.
  4. Depending what division we are in ! 1 point out of the last 18 is relegation form pure and simple. We are sleep-walking to disaster with every game.
  5. Didn't Hughes establish that set-up as soon as he became Rover's manager? I'm referring to youngsters and seniors training together. Did another manager abolish it?
  6. In 2011(?) I remember writing a spoof account of a Rovers v Accrington Stanley FA Cup Tie Round one played at Pleasington where Rovers were the underdogs and Stanley were the "local giants"! Hastily erected temporary seating and all that. It got a few laughs at the time but it had a serious intent. It reflected an absolute despair in me at where we were going under Kean and Venkys. When I hear about the strides Accrington are making and I look at where Burnley are, I still cannot get those fears out of my mind.
  7. Exactly the sort of game we lose! That's when we're playing well!!
  8. You can be involved on an emotional level with only one club---I agree with that. I'm assuming he is.
  9. Guess its your age but Berg was not in the same class as Newton. still a great player though!
  10. I left Duff out reluctantly because he wouldn't be defensive enough for the rest of my line-up. That's the problem---do you pick the best eleven players for each position or do you have to think of the formation as a whole?
  11. Places like Rishton and Accrington used to be a mixture of Rovers/Burnley fans. I wonder how far the pendulum has shifted in recent years.
  12. He sounds alright to me Bazza!
  13. Freidal Newton England Moran Le Saux Ripley Clayton Tugay Wilcox Douglas Shearer Subs Flowers Hendry Batty Sherwood Vernon Pickering Eckersley
  14. Wonder if we could raid Bolton in the summer if they go down, Sammy Ameobi? Anyone else?
  15. Yes, that was amazing. He was Captain of Holland but not an automatic choice for us! Great player.
  16. We've had many juniors but that's the best reference you've ever given PB! Must be some player. Let's hope we don't lose him before he ever plays for us.
  17. I only watched the first half but, honestly, you wouldn't have known Pilikokakis was on the pitch. Nowhere near ready for anywhere but where he is.
  18. I remember a glass bottle hitting the crossbar and glass showering down on Blacklow's head when we played Burnley at Turf Moor. The guy who did it must have been close behind me but I never saw him. The game went on after the glass had been cleaned up.
  19. Oh I agree completely! I was responding to someone who assumed he was going!
  20. I did say "would" not "will". I've no more faith in them than you!
  21. Sale of Dack would give us decent money to spend if only Tony would sound it on top defenders.
  22. I still cannot believe it!
  23. Half-time, no further score. Sorry have to leave it there!
