  1. They've been a problem as long as Mowbray has been at the club. He doesn't know how to coach defenders or set up a defence properly.
  2. Good one Rev, I think it's far more likely they'll be celebrating India superb cricket victory in Australia than their half-forgotten English football club.
  3. Well played India - a brilliant effort. Never expected that. It's always gratifying to see the convicts lose at any sport - especially on their own middin
  4. Yep, a set-piece move straight off the training ground but which seem to catch us out time and time again, and yet we rarely score against the opposition. When did we last score with a free header from a corner? It's clear Mowbray doesn't realise that opponents have these set pieces moves in their armoury and sets the defence up to combat them, and neither does he get Rovers practising them for us to score. Just another example of him over-thinking the line-ups and formations yet not getting the basics right
  5. Unbelievably soft goal, and it's not unusual is it? Nyambe was the culprit this time, but the entire defence have always been doing it under Mowbray. It's basic marking, basic defending....it just shouldn't happen.
  6. The old Millwall Den was genuinely frightening. Went there a few times, situated in the middle of a railway triangle in deepest sarf London. Ramshackle is being kind to it - it's one of the few grounds I visited where the terraces were literally crumbling away with lumps of concrete lying around. The crowd were "hostile" to say the least - mostly old dockers, who hated the ref, presumably because he represented a figure of authority, even more than they they hated the opposition, and young skinheads. It was one of the few places I went where I never wore a Rovers scarf.
  7. When the right players are on the pitch and they get the bit between their teeth like the last 15 minutes then we look a decent side. Mowbray seems incapable of getting it right from the first minute
  8. 1-1 against an average team is such a Tony Mowbray scoreline.
  9. Mowbray will point to disallowed goal but overall we didn't deserve to win Someone tell the manager a match is 90 minutes long, noit just the last 15
  10. Buckley...... don't foul him..... so he did
  11. Why has it taken us 75 minutes to wake up?
  12. Finally in the 73rd minute a bit of pressure
  13. We're on the back foot the whole time, outfought and out-thought.... can't even get out of our own half
  14. A glimmer of hope.... Gallagher off.
  15. Stoke so much better. More likely to be 2-0 than us equalise
  16. Have we had one attack this half? Which is the home team? Mowbray's picking up his (considerable) wages under false pretences.
  17. Good news....Gallagher might not be able to carry on
  18. Any neutral would say the players aren't playing for the manager
  19. Have I really paid good money to be inflicted with Sam Gallagher again?
  20. Folk on here gave 0'Neill pelters when Stoke beat us 1-0 in December, labelling the team "boring". Here he is doing it again. That's heading for a very boring 6 points against us.
  21. O'Neill has Mowbray and Rovers worked out. I cannot see us turning this round
  22. Lenihan's passing is atrocious
  23. O'Neill directing his players; Mowbray hands in pockets in his seat At least he's awake
