You're floundering worse that Tony now in your attempts to wind people up and I don't know why I'm wasting my time replying. However I want him fired because amongst other things, his transfer dealings are appalling, his results aren't good enough, the football we play is dire and in my opinion he'll take us back down if not this season then the next or the one after that. How is that wanting "a revenge" sacking? Revenge for what?

I'd hope the owners would bypass Waggott completely and merely instruct him to hand Mowbray his P45. If Waggott was worth his salt he should be reporting back to the owners that in his view the manager is struggling badly. I bet he isn't though.

You've given yourself away with that comment that you are obviously on the wind up. How can it be irrelevant that the manager's dreadful transfer dealings look set to leave us in severe difficulty both on the pitch and in terms of FFP?

This doesn't surprise me, it's on a par with many of his utterances over recent months. Absolute nonsense. It does show though that he's floundering really badly now trying to explain away the dross we've been serving up. Hopefully even Waggott and /or the owners will start to take note.

All right then, I'll take 300. The amount is almost irrelevant. We shouldn't be giving away any money like that.

Genius strategy from Mowbray, fook things up so badly no-one else will take the job. You're not seriously suggesting that's a valid reason for keeping him are you? If the owners appointed Mowbray (who you apparently like) what's stopping them appointing someone else you like?

Err..... I could never play either, so Is it ok if the Club give me 3k p.w. until the end of the season then?

Spot on.

Stop it LD. I cant breathe for laughing.

That we agree on. It's absolutely ludicrous. It's almost like he's playing him deliberately just to piss everyone off.

Boom! LD's on fire! ?

My thoughts exactly. Not content with having the worst two keepers on the planet at the Club we would be adding the third! The way things are going wouldn't be surprised to see him come in on a hugely inflated long term deal though. We'll probably flog Lenihan to fund it.

It's just symptomatic of what's going on though.

? Class riposte to the newest troll on the Board LD. That made me chuckle.

My thinking was that DJ should be on a temporary basis to see how he goes on and give us time to reassess if he isn't quite the answer. The danger would be players often up their game for a temporary manager then relax again if the appointment is made temporary. I refuse to believe he couldn't do better than TM though.

True. The comment about how it wasn't the right thing to let Gladwin go when he was injured defied belief. The owners should make TM pay pack the money we paid Gladwin out of his own pocket.

So what? He had a budget that eclipsed everyone else's and whilst you still have to beat what's in front of you and the achievement has to be acknowledged, it would have been a monumental failure had he not got us promoted. League one is his level both on and off the pitch. Remember his comment after missing out on a target that it wasn't like signing players from Gillingham? He's completely out of his depth in this League in every respect.

Why?

Disagree it was an unimportant game. We have imo zero chance of going up and even we would be hard pressed not to scrape enough points to stay up so a run in this competition was the last chance of a bit of interest and glory this season. Still Mowbray and the players will be absolutely delighted, they'll be able to go for breaks in the sun on 4th and 5th round days instead of having to play all those tiresome extra games, just muddle through the rest of the campaign scraping the 15 or so points we need to stay up then they can go on their summer hols. Rinse and repeat next season. Lovely. Will someone please get rid of this clown (Mowbray) asap. Give Damien Johnson a chance to see if he can make the step up.

Noticed Magloire who's on loan at Rochdale started at RB, had a bit of a torrid time, and was hooked after 30 mins. That cant be doing him any good, being played out of position.

Easy game isn't it when you boil it down? I'd try the same with Gallagher and Brereton up top to see if they could get some form and confidence going but the same principle still applies.

Don't understand the apathy towards the game in some quarters, for me every first team game is as important as the next, in fact I rate Cup games as more important than League games with the odd obvious exception as if you lose a Cup game you're out whereas if you lose a League game you generally have another 20 or 30 games to sort it out. I also think that you can never win too many games as imo winning breeds momentum and confidence. I don't think that will particularly matter this season as I expect us to finish nearer the relegation places than the play offs but nevertheless I am desperate for us to get through to the next round.

I'm not really sure what records we actually broke given that we finished second to Wigan!

We might have to persevere with him solely for the reason we've spunked £5m on him and no-one in their right minds would give us anything more than a fraction of that for him but I strongly disagree he'll ever make the grade. He has the physical attributes but just doesn't have a striker's natural instincts or the natural finishing ability to ever become a reasonably consistent goalscorer and I would have thought that was fairly obvious the first time he was here.

Why? We kept him a couple of two seasons too long as it was. Downing has performed far better than Conway. Wouldn't touch Marshall with a sh***y stick either. What is this obsession with former players, many of whom weren't that good when they were here before?
