  1. Nothing to do with the BBC. Any other media organisation would have done the same
  2. Tony's tombola gone into overdrive today What would constitute a good result today - a 6-0 defeat?
  3. How could he present that programme after he's been named in a racism report with everything that's gone on this week? Really?
  4. That requires intelligence
  5. Disagree. The players are totally out of order, including some ex players. Totally insensitive The club should act and any local paper worth its salt would be following up on this story too
  6. Graham, Williams, and the list of other ex players have gone down in my estimation too. They could have qualified their approval by saying “agony for Rovers” fans or similar but they didn't. They were totally insensitive IMO
  7. Come off it Simon. Allardyce had his methods which some people didn't like but I never got the impression the players were allowed a free ride for bad performances like the present lot. You really need to forget Sam - you didn't like him, we know that. Dack and Butterworth were idiots and should be disciplined by Mowbray but just as disappointing for me was the likes of Danny Graham and Derek Williams endorsing Reed's post. They won promotion medals with us - did their friendship with Reed mean more to them than that and did they enjoy seeing us get humiliated?
  8. This highlights failings at Yarkshire that goes right to the top. How is the CEO still in post?
  9. I wouldn't normally say this because the manager has ultimate responsibility but the players were just as pathetic last night. Apart from one or two, most of them showed very little pride or fight - and for a professional footballer, that is completely unacceptable Where were the leaders rallying the troops to keep the heads up and battle to the end? All we have is a team of shrinking violets. No professional team should lose 7-0, especially at home If he had anything about him, Mowbray should be reading the riot act today
  10. First question by a journalist with his Rovers nose to the ground after last night's match should have been Well, Tony. That was the worst home defeat in the club's history - are you considering resigning? After the denial the second question should have been Rovers fans will be feeling dejected and humiliated tonight. Are you going to apologise to them?
  11. Howe left Burnley because his wife didn't like living "up nawf" - how's she going to cope with the delights of Wallsend?
  12. Another factor in a capitulation like that is the lack of leadership on the pitch Where were real pros fighting tooth and nail for their own pride and that of the club and showing that they really care? I didn't (m)any
  13. Brilliant post from David Speedie Sounds like he's a Rovers fan. All credit to him
  14. Worst defeat I've personally witnessed was a 5-0 home defeat by ManU in the 1965-66 relegation season. We were well beaten by a fantastic team but the Rovers players never gave up Tonight was far worse, it feels like a watershed, which it should be for the manager and the club
  15. Worst defeat at home in the history of BRFC I believe Come on down Tony
  16. Worst defeat at home in our history? Tony should walk if he had any shame
  17. Any decent chairman (if we had one) would haul Mowbray in after the game and demand an explanation And then sack him
  18. Managers should get sacked for performances like this It's embarrassing
  19. Come on, we haven't turned up at all
  20. It's like watching a Championship team against a League 2 team We've been that poor
  21. Tony looks nonplussed. He's Ok though - his pension fund's had a good year
  22. Should be 3-0. This is like a practice match for Fulham
  23. Buckley the one player who might be able to create something and he gets taken off Tony's defending the 2-0
  24. Tonight is why we need a new manager
