It's a good shout jim. I think I'd marginally prefer the Cowley brothers but either way unless Waggott is dispensed with as well I fear the only way Mowbray will be leaving Ewood is in a wooden box.

It's not healthy at all. Which merely underlines my point about Mowbray!

Sorry, I was thinking tonight I probably owe Alan Fettis an apology. I think he is.

There's more chance of me dating dating Taylor Swift than Mowbray ever getting us in with a chance of finishing in the top two with one game to go. And I'm 56.

About right.

Agreed. Us apart it is superb. Barnsley scored at Brentford to stay up now. What must you be thinking if you're a Forest fan? Nicer problems to have I guess.

You couldn't make it up could you?

Brentford just need to score again as things stand to go up. Would be pleased for Raya if it happens after the way he was treated by Mowbray.

Give over. At 3 points progression per season it's be another 4 season before we even made the play offs let alone get promoted.

I thought the pen was very harsh but this is still a dreadfully meek showing second half. I should just turn the picture off and listen to the commentary. Listening to Neil Yardley you'd think we hadn't put a foot wrong and were winning 5-0.

Lee Bowyer is another I'd take ahead of Mowbray. Mind you, there aren't many I wouldn't.

Figures. We only have about 15.

WBA equalised but amazing them and Brentford were both losing before that. Brentford will be absolutely kicking themselves if they lose their last two. Might be as close as they ever get to the Prem.

......and that's why Walton shouldn't have been playing. Honestly, we'd be better without him on the pitch and putting an extra outfield player on.

In now, weird. Johnson is terrible.

Can't really complain about that line up too much apart from Walton. I'm having that problem where it asks me to put in the promo code again on the I follow.

Yes, but roll forward 5 years or more and we're in exactly the same position. For Lowe read Bennett!

I know all that, unless I'm mistaken though that wouldn't have prevented them topping the wages up at the end of July like they had been doing previously if they'd wanted to. It just struck me they had shifted from a position of being very generous to doing nothing. August onwards is a different kettle of fish entirely.

Apparently the non playing staff at the Club who have been furloughed had their wages topped up to 100% by Venky's in the months up to now which in my view was very generous of them. However at the end of July they will only be getting the 80% from the Government, so, taken in conjunction with the allegation that there is no information forthcoming about budgets for next season I'm not sure if that's something that should be raising red flags slightly.

Couldn't agree more. The fact it would be such a ludicrous move worries me as it is such a bad idea it's probably exactly the sort of thing that would appeal to Tone.

Not sure how Chapman can be criticised for making a match winning contribution inside less than 15 mins when that's all the manager will give him! Bizarre.

Why is everyone getting all hot under the collar about not having news about the budget? When they do have it, Mowbray and Waggott either waste it on dross or bring no-one in then complain about the state of the market.

Or.....some people will look to deflect attention away from Mowbray's shortcomings and blame everything on the owners.

Never look a gift horse in the mouth, after the Cowleys' surprise sacking I'd snap their hands off and get them in yesterday.

I'd take the Cowleys over Mowbray in a heartbeat.
