250 sounds a good number for a price in order to sell 10/11k season tickets. Ewood are you listening ? No need to piss about changing prices every week next season, get most in in one hit please.

The main issue is if he comes back this summer with a shiny new 3 year contract then has a 1 in 10 run before Christmas... That's entirely possible and we know he won't get sacked even if they wanted because it would cost to much. So any new contract should reflect what we've learned from his management and what they actually want from him. It should be nothing more than a one year rolling deal or two years absolute max. I think it's nailed on we are in for a rerun of the last 4 years though with the chances of relegation again just as strong as any top 6 finish. Fingers crossed for the remainder of this season because it is a pivitol point in the clubs recent history.

Nothing at Rovers is ever sorted properly until the summer summit meetings with the full ownership crew. Any time between June and August depending on family holidays and other stuff. And nobody will rock that boat.

I dread to think how much the management and coaching staff are costing.

We can't live in fear forever because the day will come he moves on or retires or just needs a good break from management. The scaremongers and snowflakes in our fanbase need to get to grips with this and understand others don't see why the club should have to dance to his tune until he decides to switch the music off. It's about Blackburn Rovers not any individual and at some point to move forward for the club and him there'll have to be a parting of the ways. I think most would like it to be an amicable one where we say thanks to each other and wish each other all the best. So those upstairs should be monitoring this season and last very closely and have a plan in place. Something a bit more dynamic than digging out the HSH unwanted list.

They seem to prefer to waste millions rather than invest it.

He'll get a decent offer and good contract somewhere. We'll get JRC and whoever else Mowbray chooses according to opposition whilst we wait for this better replacement for a few hundred grand.

That's what happens when you franchise things out.

It's taken a few days this time as there was a lot of angst towards him post Saturday. A lot of those accounts are a bit iffy in true twitter style, i'd say there's an HSH bot farm somewhere near Yarm. Sadly for others the more TM detaches himself from any responsibility the more they back him but that's just social media la la land. Only ones that matter are in the ground where contrary to some beliefs on here i reckon most are on the fence. The anger was building around the ground in that bizarre first half. He knew it.

There must be some massive disparity in wages if those figures are to believed considering what Dack. Gallagher, Brereton, Ayala will be on. No wonder quite a few are looking at firing off.

If we are only paying those wages to players then where the feck is the rest of it going ? I'm not having those figures for a min although iv'e long thought a few million per season goes through the club to elsewhere. I'll never alter that opinion and i know the wages will have come down focusing on youth and ridding deadwood. However that doesn't add up at all with c20/30 million annual loses still.

It's a real mixed bag as we've had relegation, promotion, consolidation, stagnation then one top 6 push, so far. Got to be around a 6.9 from me all things considered depending on this seasons finish but i can't see it rising if he stays any longer. His failure to address weaknesses in certain positions has cost us time and again and it ain't all down to not having backing.

That's exactly the way it is in the ground the ones who chant his name are the first to boo.

We didn't make the play off 2 years ago because Bradley Dack got injured madame. We didn't manage it last year Mr D because Bradley did his knee again. Sorry Barry we won't do it this time as Lenihen is injured but i'll guarantee a marginal gain on last year. Next season we'll storm it, now about those 3 year contracts for me, Mark, Swag and the boys....where do we sign !

Good. His ship sailed years ago and sadly someone like him would ruin what we have now. If he was taking over after Coyle or someone it would have been fine then to try and mould his own squad.

Waggot must be a Tory hes done his own version of leveling up plus a nice cherry on top. That bit probably covers his salary.

Select the cheapest most local and biggest yes men from that list and you'll have your nailed on candidates. Then take the longest odds one off your shortened list and there we'll have our man.

Not really because like you say he is who he is but when somebody puts up photo evidence. Alongside the assumed demeanor viewed from a distance it paints a rather more startling picture. Yes someone has delved deep there but its been done for a reason, presumably that being proof that bossing Blackburn Rovers is all about him.

No, last season he just looked bored. He didn't have 11k home fans roaring (or telling him to sort it out) with his team fighting to stay in the top 6. If there is an example from memory where hes ever looked so dejected when his side is storming back to win i'd be interested to hear it.

That's what he did though. You can find justification to defend him from the onslaught that's fair enough but don't go into denial about thing that happen in front of thousands of pairs of eyes. Ok i don't pay money to watch the managers but it was one of the oddest things seen down there on the touchline in the last...... well ever probably. I've seen things orchestrated, Kidd appearing mid game when he hadn't officially taken charge of the team being one. Various bust ups and even Stan Ternants tight black trackies and big white sneekers amusing the BBE no end. Never ever seen a Rovers manager seemingly down tools then looked positively pissed off when his team was scoring and winning.

What needs to change ? Maybe tell the manager to stay at home until the end of May because his influence doesn't seem to make a jot of positive difference. In fact the one half of football he 'sat out' we scored 3 goals !

Don't take offence if i screenshot this and plaster it on twitter and facebook as it isn't for nefarious reasons like we are used to. It needs showing to the many on there who only pull their heeds out their backsides long enough to tell us how great he is. Mind you they've been hard to spot since January.

Been very suspicious in the past of certain things looking like we might be a plaything for a private betting syndicate. Now though it's just TM and his familiar patterns we've seen it for 5 years on the bounce even some of his staunchest supporters acknowledge it. He is only comfortable in his own mind when he is constantly tinkering and rotating according to the opposition. The best periods of success we've had under him have come when hes hit on a team and left it alone, 3 games, 5 games or whatever. This season before Christmas must be some kind of career record from him in terms of leaving things alone where possible. Even the subs were predictable but mostly sensible. Once that had to change we were always nailed on to go back to type trying silly things and bowing to the opposition. Alongside trying to justify some players and keep others happy. Then the blame inevitably gets pointed directly at the players and certain ones get chucked under the bus. All whilst looking fed up, tired, uninterested on the sidelines and in the pressers. I think we'd be seeing very similar even if the team had spent the season in midtable.

Sorry but no it's just classic Mowbray and the way him and Swaggo run things. I don't believe he could have got substantial funds but a few million or a big wage contribution for a short term loan, yes. He wouldn't say what hes said otherwise with him being the bastion of integrity. For virtually all his time here hes been giving the impression he's told the owners to keep the chequebook away and run it sensibly. Far enough but when its needed a push it hasn't happened. This was the first time in a Jan window hes been able to do anything for a while. He directed those funds where he did. Seemingly looked at a couple of wide forwards types who he could juggle around on the front line. Then left them alone and spent on recruiting Hedges, Giles and the Spurs lad which won't have cost nothing. No ambition just playing it safe and we've seen nothing to suggest it was the right call.

Lets not talk about Mowbray in the same breath as Kean or Coyle as one was a narsissistic conman the other a goon. He was a breath of fresh air for a few seasons but hit his glass ceiling at full pelt 2 years ago. Since then hes just been floundering around trying to hang on to his journey as long as possible. This season he had his hand forced after years of easy street and hit on a formula that worked well with what he had for once. Sadly once it went wrong he hadn't the first scooby what to do about it. Either on the pitch or in the window so his natural revert to type instincts kicked in. What he does now could be the most important thing hes done in the last 4 years as Rovers boss because after this season there'll likely be another downgrade. I think though having fans back this season and actually having to graft on matchday instead of slumbering the pressure of a good season has got to him. I bet he dreams of midtable obscurity in front of 9k silent fans and talk of ignoring the league, being happy at 1-0 reverses because he's a development coach who only cares about individuals progress. Remember all that ? Because it was only last season he was labeling himself as such.
