  1. The writing is on the wall. If Mowbray is allowed to stay for a large chunk of next season and the squad is largely the same, which is the most likely scenario, we will go down. I think it's that simple.
  2. 4 points out of the last 30 I think. It's not look good for next season is it ?
  3. We've taken 4 points out of 30 so with the players still "onside" with Mowbray. Should we be grateful?
  4. They won't sack him this season and I doubt they will sack him in October when we're stuck in the bottom 3. They will probably act around January / February when of course it will be too late.
  5. Solid 4-0 defeat this Saturday. Rovers' players and management team have packed up for the season
  6. Ben Marshall is a Tory ? I used to like him.
  7. King is one of those players who needed time for his game to mature. I don't blame Bowyer for not playing King alot because he wasn't really ready at the time but I do blame Rovers for letting go a player who with his exceptional pace always had the potential to be the very good player he has now become.
  8. It's not his private life when he advertises it to the world by putting it on social media. Dack's a fool to himself and will never fulfil his potential. You can also see why Charlton chucked him out when he was a teenager
  9. Common denominator with Dack / Mulgrew / McCarthy / Samba is that although they are / were good players, they could / should have achieved far more. Imagine how good Dack could be if he looked after his body better or McCarthy if he hadn't eaten so many McDonalds? Its up to them I suppose if they don;t want to reach the very top but if I had their earning power and ability I would want a very long career.....which means no drinking, dancing or eating bad food.
  10. Although you are a professional Rovers supporter, you weren't a professional footballer. These lads are supposed to be trained athletes, earning huge wages. I don't think it's expecting much for them to behave in a professional manner, which includes not plastering their social life all over social media.
  11. Kazakhstan 3 Scotland 0 Jim Baxter will be rolling in his grave But I bet this chap is delighted
  12. To sum up, cost of promotion black to Championship has been high. Figures from Club’s Director’s Report filed at Companies House for the year ending June 2018 show : Turnover has reduced by nearly 6 million pounds, from £14.9 Million in 2017, to £9.0 Million in 2018. Match day income reduced by £0.5 Million (2017 was £3.3M, 2018 was £2.8M). Media income reduced by £4.8 Million (2017 - £6.7M, 2018 - £1.9M). Commercial and other income reduced by £0.6 Million (2017 - £4.9M, 2018 - £4.3 M). Operating expenses increased to £8.9 million, up from £5.9 million in 2017. However, there was a reduction in wages and salaries of £5.2 million (2017 - £22M, 2018 - £16.8M). This has resulted in a pre tax loss of £16.8 Million, compared to just £3.8 Million the previous year, with the wage turnover ratio now 186.7%. The club’s net liabilities are now just under £125 million, up from just under £109 million the previous year, with the amount due to the parent company (Venky’s) at a massive £108.76 million.
  13. 14 goals so far this season....not bad for an old chap in a wheelchair. Replacing Danny Graham is the least of our problems Rev
  14. Stand corrected makes it even worse
  15. This is such a soft team no backbone and beaten so easily go Mowbray go
  16. Worst defensive away record in goals conceded in the entire division Mowbray is hopeless
  17. Yep, there's something amiss that's for sure. It's not normal for a club that was riding high to fall apart like this. Where is the catalyst for change though? Who holds the levers of power when hard decisions have to be made ?
  18. Mowbray has lost all the goodwill from last season and bar a sudden reversal of form I cannot see a way back for him If I were CEO I'd be looking for another manager
  19. Wait for parson with his Mowbray excuses and "long term" view.
  20. Go now Mowbray, please go. You don't know what to do and these players don't want to play for you. The club is in freefall
  21. Defeat today will make it 1 point out of 21 - is that right?
  22. Agreed on railway stations. I also prefer the correct description of Blackburn Rovers' blue and white halves.
  23. This is as bad as 2 years ago when Williams won it in the relegation season. Graham's been the best of an inconsistent and underachieving bunch
  24. No he hasn't. It's nonsense
  25. Sorry, that's rubbish. I know some Bristol Rovers fans shirts through family. They have never referred to their shirts as "eighths". This site talks about Bristol's "quartered" shirts. http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Bristol_Rovers/Bristol_Rovers.htm And these Bristol Rovers site talks about the club's traditional "blue and white quarters". https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/what-history-bristol-rovers-iconic-221679 https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/bristol-rovers-new-201819-home-1810244 Blackburn Rovers play in halves.
