Just when you thought it couldn't get any weirder, he starts Butterworth (great) and Clarkson (wtf) and drops Rothwell (eh?) Also, back 3 😫

Ha, cheers. I wasn't convinced anyone ever knew what it was.

Rebelmswar, blast from the past! (Unless you've been posting and I didn't notice)

Not a great move by the LET. If I'm scrolling through my twitter feed and there is any Rovers news, the LET and Lancs live are lways next to each other, so I'll just unfollow the LET and read the same story for free 🤷‍♂️ Assume most others will do the same.

Cheers

Is this on the red button?

So if we hadn't sold Arma we would have been well over? Also, I though that sale would only be taken into account on the next year's finances, not this one? (Probably wrong on that)

Mid-lower table.

We're in the throes of a classic Mowbray death spiral, a defeat here for sure.

Perfect start for the new owners though. Gave Bruce his 1000th game to manage, loses, fans chant for him to be sacked, sack him in the morning, job done.

Yes, this would be amazing. They'd have a way round it though, creative accounting and all that.

After a positive start to the season, the same old stuff is happening again. It's all so predictable. It's been happening all the time under Mowbrays tenure. Same shit, different season. We are sliding down the league. And it's highly unlikely we will be climbing back up it anytime soon, or if we do, it will be too late in the season to trouble the play offs. The season hasn't finished, we aren't going to finish 9th, mid to lower table beckons again. Why would anyone be happy with this?

Down to 9th as the slide down the league continues. "We're only X points off 6th" (X is a continuously increasing number)

Full time 2-2. 2 points dropped, same old stuff.

You don't believe it? Probably the most likely thing to happen was a Coventry equaliser. Just waiting for them to bag the winner.

And there it is

Poveda and Davenport on. Poveda has to step it up big time from his previous performances

Mowbray rarely gets a back 3 working effectively

A back 3, just to knock the last lingering shred of confidence out of me

It's only for a month as well. Strange decision all round.

It's a good point. I made the mistake of thinking he would be played as a striker 🤦‍♂️

Good to have Lenihan and Nyambe back but to not have BBD, Gallagher and Dolan all potentially unavailable is a problem. Poveda would have to step it up significantly to make any reasonable impact. Not particularly confident of a result, which is saying something when we are playing Coventry at home.

New phone case just arrived. The Mrs said it was awful, so i had to do the honorable thing and bin it. It'll be a shame to throw away 11 years of marriage but it had to be done.

"Sack Bruce and get Conte or Zidane in" seems to be a common train of thought by Newcastle fans on Twitter. I'm guessing they assume that it will be that easy to attract a big name manager to St. James Park.
