One reason why Mowbray is such an infuriating manager, the situation we find ourselves in is all of his own making. The architect of his own downfall.

As far as I'm concerned, regular individual mistakes stem from the manager. Under poor managers, teams make plenty of them, under good managers the errors are far less. When Allardyce replaced Ince, the mistakes were cut out almost instantly. Players knew their job and the teams tactics pretty clearly. Obviously players still make mistakes every now and again but they are far less common. Not every game. It's no surprise our players make mistakes, does anyone even know what tactics Mowbray tries to play?

They've stayed silent for years now. I don't live in Blackburn, so when people find out I'm a Rovers fan, one of the first questions I get these days is "Are you still owned by the Venkys?" And when I say yes, there is generally some astonishment followed by some laughter. Our reputation is still well and truly in the gutter.

We are now in a relegation scrap. We wont fight our way out of it, our only hope is that there are 3 teams worse than us. And we have the significant handicap of an atrocious manager.

To be honest, we've been like that for 10 years. Venkys have only ever appointed a string of poor managers, we just do the same cycle every time. None of them have ever managed to instill any form of winning mentality because they aren't good enough.

He really needs to go but I genuinely think we will be stuck with him until the new year. Venkys ALWAYS make the wrong decision.

He just knew he would probably be getting some abuse from the fans. He won't be going anywhere.

Abysmal. Mowbray needs to go now. I don't want to see him mismanage another Rovers game. Ever. Worst bit. I stuck £5 on preston when we were 2 up. Worst bet I've ever won.

Pathetic, absolutely pathetic. Sack him now.

Tragic that it feels like after being 2 ups we are now going to lose. Fuck off Mowbray. Useless.

FFS!

And it's back to normal.

What the hell is going on!?!

Get in! HOLD (for 89mins! ?)

Well to be fair to Mowbray, his team selection is in line with his pre match comments.

Why do they get 4 centre mids and we get 0?

? We will be lucky to keep it to 3. Bennett and Evan's in CM! WTF!!

Do you think he'll move Bennett to right wing? I think he'll just drop Nyambe.

I honestly don't know how anyone can have any confidence in Rovers to get anything tomorrow after the way hes spoke about the game.

Not a cat in hells chance.

My only issue with Dack is that he's a bit of a lad, one of the boys kind of thing. I just don't know if it would work. Does he have the kind of authority that the other players would look up to when we need to dig deep? Unsure. On the field his style of play might lend itself to being a captain and leading by example. I don't think he'd go into hiding, I actually think he would thrive on it. Might be worth it alone to galvanise our best player!

Tough question. There is no stand out candidate really. I agree totally with your opinion on Bennett. I guess Lenihan but then the vice captain would end up with armband just as much.

It's fucking Preston, not Man City. Grow a spine for christ's sake.

That's defeatist talk from someone with a losing mentality. No wonder the team has zero fight

There aren't many good stats for Rovers these days
