  1. I think i was typing that on here 2 years ago, hes managed to create himself a niche here at Ewood moving the goalposts when it suits. We just aren't strong enough or savvy enough to do it every week now but for a few seasons we might have been. No sign of it though as he wanted the comfort zone.
  2. Winning run incoming when these polls pop up 🤣
  3. Far too placid these days but when Ewood blows it usually does so big style. Something will give eventually but tomorrow i think we'll get stuck in and win. I'd rather ignore the responsibility dodger with his hands in his pockets and get behind the lads ffs. His time will come if he doesn't alter his attitude or hangs around longer than this season.
  4. People call Souness for his ego and arrogance when he was younger but when it mattered the guy showed his class. When things weren't going well and unrest was brewing he stood there and said fans are entitled to have a go so please have a go at me not the team. I have broad shoulders and i'm the manager the buck stops with me. He also many times stated how patient he thought the Ewood crowd was and how other fans would turn far quicker when things went wrong. Contrast to this present goat who has to tell everybody every five mins how humble he is, whilst never being held accountable for anything at all.
  5. Please don't sack me the kit men and the tea lady's like me.
  6. The other night when the 3rd i think it was went in and a few rumbles of dissent started he straight away bolted and hid on the bench. Then when it passed and the crowd tried to rally the team briefly he re appeared. And of course stood there hands in pockets, the guy is a complete flake.
  7. Don't mistake it for unconditional backing for him though it's a brow beaten fanbase. Most have just given up and either don't go anymore or just turn up as is their duty as fans and just sit there. The crowds bear testament to this.
  8. Last player i saw turned inside out as easy as him was Murphy it's as if his feet are nailed to the floor. In defense or in a packed defensive midfield where his job is just to be solid he might do a decent shift. That kind of thing is way beyond the Mowbray way though.
  9. You've lifted that straight from facebook where all the level headed fans live apparently 😵 About 1 in 20 who actually bother to attend or watch the games instead of just replying to the managers spin. Without much idea what is really going on.
  10. If it was Boro or Ewood in the 80's both without a pot to pee in and both getting 4 or 5k he'd still have been blasted out the ground after that shower the other night. Why is it that Celtic, Boro and Coventry were ok to criticize him and some of the shite he talks but Blackburn Rovers fans aren't ? Very odd that, almost like there is an agenda at play.
  11. He's a complete twat and has been for 2 years now. Entirely predictable it's nothing to do with him hes spun it all back onto fans etc. He's the victim in all this just trying to clear up the mess. Honestly you'd have to be a real plank to just sit there and not genuinely question his part in it all. Come 5pm tomorrow though hes stealthily set himself up to be the hero again if we win. Sickening merry go round of nonsense this is. The Mowbray era should've ended on good terms 2 years or at least 12 months ago. It should be looked back on as one of fond stability but instead it's turning into a farce.
  12. And it all starts at the top the mentality is if you are expected to lose then it's ok. And worse of all lose by 1 or 7 it doesn't really seem to matter much either way.
  13. I honestly genuinely think if we got whooped 3/4/5 nil nothing would happen at all. The die was cast for this season when they didn't change in summer. Then the usual flatter to deceive little run of form early justifies the don't try and fix it policy. Now here we are again with it set to run and run and maybe run some more.
  14. Although it is a bit daft after a horror show like that i agree with 1874 it's just the modern way of a pat on the back. In past days they'd all be having a beer together afterwards and doing all the back slapping and bonding. If it was a SAT game some of them would all be out together afterwards. It's not really like that anymore so really it's just a 'well played' in the way things are done these days, not saying i agree with it but that's the way it is. Falling out about it behind the scenes and falling out with fans probably does more damage for spirit than just letting it lie. As for Bennett weighing in the best thing to do with him is ignore him he's always had a big mouth. Regularly whilst here he seemed to trawl past all the smoke blowing to find one negative comment to kick off about. He's another example of the modern footballer snowflake, a ten bob lower league player with a fragile ego. Forget about him.
  15. Relax He'll get his usual back against the wall win tomorrow because these players are better than they showed the other night. Tactically he'll always be in a world of his own, he always has been but the fighting spirit of the young side will carry things through. 5 pm Saturday his teflon head will be twice the size again and he'll be having his usual veiled digs and victim mentality in the post match presser.
  16. 12.5k ish home fans. Doesn't sound a lot - well it isn't a lot but it's still about 4 thousand buying tickets after taking off ST holders. So it's quite a jump on last nights turnout.
  17. We've got a lot more to worry about than these plonkers liking each others posts and i certainly don't think there's any malice in Dack. End of the day they all have more money than sense and that can cloud the judgement a bit.
  18. He's just as dour as Stan but nowhere near as pragmatic or hard. Instead he has a need to be liked and always seen as the nice guy so we'll always have a soft underbelly with him. I remember the game you're referring to and Ternent was absolutely steaming. Probably head butted a few afterwards, Tony hands out haribos and comfort blankets instead, whilst he waits for the bus to pass before he shoves a few under to cover his own sorry arse.
  19. And what of the leadership on the sidelines ? They obviously have no fear or are bothered about that. Neither was he, as iv'e said a dozen times he's a white flag waving surrender monkey in these games. His record whilst here backs it up i'd wager, all to easily accepts defeat before the ball is kicked. It is no wonder we've never come close to cracking the top ten under him before this season with bigger better squads. Iv'e banged on about it for years but the mentality under him is all wrong and always has been.
  20. Sadly around me last night....well the handful within speaking distance..where mostly laughing it off. Shrugging shoulders and saying oh well we'll never be that bad again hopefully. Below us on the touchline was a fella with his hands in his pockets wishing he was at home in front of the fire. Difference is he's getting ten grand a week to stop the sort of thing we witnessed last night actually happening. To say his stamp has rubbed off on fans is an understatement.
  21. I actually felt sorry for most of the players last night everything that could go wrong did. They were exposed as being out of their depth and lead by a chump not a leader. TM couldn't do anything about the bad defending or clumsy tackle but we were all wrong before that. This is where real nous comes in from better managers knowing how to set up against real quality. And knowing what to do when it's going wrong. Time and time again against the better sides Mowbrays teams have come up short. I expected to lose comfortably anyway but that was a shocker.
  22. Some just playing with it, some trying to make a few quid out of it. All peeing in the same pot and collectively not much idea but always handy to have limp yes men in the hotseats.
  23. Imo it's Barry and his middleman who only seem to want to deal with a certain set of peoples clients. Just why is the million dollar question.
  24. These fellas came out with this stuff completely unprompted to me. They didn't seem to have hate for the trio and did say there was a boat load of issues going on. However the general point was these lot bought into it, pitched their own plan and made everything worse. As well as a whiff of opportunism to make money from house building etc in Venus's case. I think we all agreed the lot of them are more suited to lower league desperate type clubs. Not anybody who is a fair sized club but needs pushing in the right direction upwards with modest backing.
