What we see on the pitch IS down to TM though.

He's either got a very short memory or is starting to completely unravel. When questioned about Nyambe's omission on Wednesday night he definitely said there was no particular reason for it he had a big squad and sometimes players didn't make the cut. Not even a hint about RN needing a rest. If he's going to lie through his teeth he might as well get his story straight. It's also exceptionally bad form to insinuate its the fans fault RN is injured. If there's any doubt over his fitness then any proper coach would ensure he doesn't play until he is right and all he has to do is explain that.

Yes. Let's try and get rid of "The Coventry Three" whilst there's still something left to salvage.

Lovely fella? - at least Kean, Coyle etc weren't complicit in the sale of the training ground.

My better half just showed me an article from the Daily Mail online whereby that brain dead bimbo of a fiancee of his was whinging about their wedding being on hold due to Covid and how they were thinking about postponing it because they were missing "the build up". Also said that if she every broke up with Dack she couldn't go out with anyone else in the public eye. That can't help. How can you concentrate on your work with that circus going on? As one comment below the article said " sausages for lips and the personality of a turnip".

Has someone hacked your account Chaddy?

There's been a lot worse than that. Raya, Nyambe, Brereton, Davenport, Chapman. At least from Gallagher's point of view he does seem to start fairly regularly in an attempt to justify the expenditure.

Go Chaddy.

Saw the goal on Soccer Saturday. Refused to waste a tenner on it today. The thing that struck me was the appalling body language from our players after the ball flew in. One of complete and utter resignation.

Flog it off and replace with the smallest facility they can get away with.

I wouldn't say he's guaranteed to keep us up at all but he doesn't need to for very long does he? Just long enough for this Brockhall scam to go through.

Positives: Nyambe back in. Apart from that in the light of today's news, who cares? Waggott/Mowbray/Venus out!

What a fantastic post. Nothing more you can add to that.

Wasn't it only in the summer that the Club were crowing about having installed new state of the art technology and facilities at the existing sites?

I've been down there and from memory the opposite is the case, the site where the senior facility is located is far bigger with all the outdoor pitches. Of the two buildings, the Academy one was I think built later and regarded as the more modern facility but in a much more compact area.

Spot on. Brockhall is also a vast estate with a sizeable chunk having been previously unused. I'd have felt easier if a small chunk had been sold off for housing and the existing sites were to remain untouched. Then, if you want to upgrade or modernise them feel free. This just feels like trying to squeeze every drop of profit they can out of the land and trying to shoehorn the Club's training centre into as small a building as possible.

This really does feel like the beginning of the end. The final disrespect to Jack's legacy. He would never have entertained such a notion because financially he didn't need to. Seemingly the Rao's are way richer than the Walkers so why do they need to do it either? It also stinks to high heaven that something along these lines happened at Coventry and look at the state they've been in over the years. My dislike for the Coventry mafia of Mowbray Venus and Waggott has now hit new heights. Anyone still in any doubt they're only interested in feathering their own nests? Not surprised the news was relayed to the LT by "a Club spokesman" and that no one has the courage to put their name to it.

Sacking managers every few years doesn't work......until they sacked the manager before Bielsa and got promoted two years later as a result!

Bernie had a bit more life about him than Mowbray.

**Tin hat on** I'll probably get slated for saying this but I want Mowbray out far more than I ever wanted Coyle out or arguably even Kean out. The reasoning behind this seemingly insane statement is that imo it's a full two years since it became blindingly obvious he was out of his depth at Championship level and needed to be replaced. With Coyle we were usually well in games until one or more pieces of calamitous defending invariably cost us and I never thought we played that badly under him or that the players ever stopped playing for him. Even Kean had us in 5th or 6th when he was sacked. That was relatively early on in the season and would probably have got worse but it's still a position TM could only dream of. If Mowbray had have been replaced two years ago I'd have had full respect for the job he did in stabilising us and bringing us back up. Instead it just seems to me he's been in full self preservation mode ever since with this "jam tomorrow" "slow build" crap to explain away his ownfailings. As a result I've grown to really dislike him and nothing in his managerial stats in the meantime has persuaded me I'm being unreasonable.

With respect, your suggestion that there was no point sacking Mowbray and we might as well just let him continue until the end of the season (despite presumably at the same time acknowledging he wasn't the man for the job) was an extremely bizarre one.

Same with Swag. They both clearly have zero affinity for the Club. If Mowbray got the Middlesbrough job to.orrow he'd probably talk them up like they were the biggest side in the world

The problem isn't that we haven't been tearing it up in the Premier League for a long time, we haven't been tearing it up in the Championship either! And to say "we haven't exactly been tearing it up" is probably the understatement of the century. The last 3 seasons have been absolutely dire despite very decent backing from the owners imo. Other Clubs have to wheel and deal and live within their means.

Yup.

Absolutely pitiful. Way worse than Preston imo. It's like he's deliberately trying to get sacked after the RB farce on Friday night and starting Bennett tonight then bringing Evans on when behind. Bit of straw clutching: 1) Could be a great night if this signals his departure 2) If anyone in India has seen these last 2 live Sky games surely even Swag would be hard pressed to bull up his mate's alleged qualities and keep him in a job? (Preferably both)
