The forwards are doing what they can, they're just not good enough. We have so many players out that would be in the first eleven which all points back to the inadequacy of the squad at the start of the season in terms of number and quality. Judging by the transfer window so far things are not going to change and our assault on Top 6 is likely to fade.

Turn back Jim!

Might as well wait till summer then! Keep our powder dry.

Yes and its not even close to midnight on the last day of the Window!

Not surprising on the basis of where he played them!

2.5M?

And you're one of them.

Convinced the owners that promotion was a long-term process. Said himself he had to vigorously dissuade Iron Bar Venky from spending big money on transfers like he wanted to.

Good to see Mowbray back anywhere else but Ewood.

I thought he was absolutely rubbish. Can't believe how far he's come on. Just our luck!

Not really. Most recognise his limitations but love him for what he does do.

A low bar!

They can evolve for the next few years then. Good!

Oxford's last 5 matches---3 wins and 2 draws ----better than ours last 5 by some way! So let's not assume anything!

THIS! Complains when he gets them though!

So used to losing in the last few minutes! This manager has turned it around. Mac hardly the complete player but useful all the same.

Our owners have deep pockets but short arms ---sadly.

Likely Venky response---"We're 7th. What more do you want?"

You're making an assumption that once this case is settled the owners will back us. I've no such confidence. No they'll be able to. There's a difference.

So similar!!

I think O'Hashi was meant to be that replacement.

God, we made some blunders back then eh?

I hate being knocked out 3rd Round! Love the build-up and speculation before the draw and wondering who we'll get. Personally I'd like a Premier League club at home---love seeing Ewood packed and a scramble for tickets from the away side fans. Get through to the last 16 and you're national headlines again! Love it! That recent tie at Sheff Utd was a great game, we lost but I felt real pride at the performance. Cup runs can give you that.

Yep! Agree with that.

Should be---for life!
