  1. What did they do before they "drilled down" ? Perhaps they used a simple English word, such as "sought", or "searched", or "examined"? And how about the "roadmap" out of lockdown? How did we ever survive all those years without "roadmaps"? In the old days there'd be a simple English word like "route", or "way", or "plan"? Then there's the "rollout" of vaccines, when surely "distribution" is a perfectly adequate British English word and finally, the worst of the lot, "ramping up", probably the most overused American word of the pandemic and the most annoying when "increase" or "expand" or "extend" is easily understood
  2. Excellent letter Simon. Have signed
  3. There speaks a man asking to be sacked and eager to collect his redundancy money No honour amongst thieves
  4. Other managers looked at the way we were playing and adjusted accordingly Tony had no plan B,
  5. How can a supposedly honourable man look at himself in the mirror and not admit to himself that he is failing in his job and has reached the end of the road?
  6. One thing is absolutely certain: if Mowbray is still here next season we will be relegated
  7. This is a demoralised set of players. Can't even score a penalty
  8. It's all too easy. And we offer no threat at all Commentators: "the lack of home crowds has had a real effect on Rovers" No mention of the manager Twerps
  9. Americanisms are a blight on the British English language and need to be resisted. Lawmakers instead of politicians or legislators is one that has become widely used in the media. Skedule instead of the correct schedule in the spoken word drives me nuts and the Oxford comma has crept into written language, and is very annoying (see what I did there?) And don’t anyone dare use train station instead of railway station
  10. Would Ainsworth get a mention if he wasn't a Blackburn lad? I don't think he would
  11. I know what you mean TS. I was world class every time playing in the back garden On Brereton, he very much relies on confidence, A while ago he was in good form and playing well but at the moment he looks shot. I'd like to see him what he can do under a better coach and manager because he has alot of attributes, although he is unlikely ever to be a prolific scorer
  12. Brereton's confidence has gone. Today he was snatching at shots, mistiming runs, holding the ball when he should pass, laying it off when he should keep it and miscontrolling the ball all the time. It's a shame because earlier in the season he was playing well and finally looking like a good player in the making. I think there's a good player in there somewhere but at the moment he's a liability
  13. You have to wonder how Mowbray is able to sit at home with a clear conscience tonight. Surely anyone with an ounce of their own self-worth and pride would look at themselves in the mirror and admit that they are failing in their job and can no longer justify picking up their very high wages.
  14. Trolling, and if it's not trolling, it's tripe. The lads at QEGS are from ordinary, backgrounds, most of them so-called "working class".
  15. In any other club Mowbray's position would be untenable. It's getting silly now
  16. Nine managers out of 10 in Mowbray's current situation would resign - without a doubt Nine clubs of 10 with a proactive board would have sacked the manager by now
  17. Seven points out of 39. Losing to the rock bottom club. Not tested their keeper this half. On and on we bumble
  18. If anything we're worse this half than the first dire 45.
  19. Gallagher back on the right wing. That usually works well
  20. Brereton has concrete in his boots instead of feet
