It's what I've been told.

My blood runs cold!

I think it would be a surprise if Mowbray is still in charge for the game at Brum - I expect him to have 'left the building' within days.

We need a manager who can get us promoted and quickly. Full stop. Not bullsh1t or fanciful journeys for the naive and happy clappers.

Chris, are you really serious about retaining Venus in ANY capacity?! IMO, the man brings feck all to the party.

If Grayson or Venus get the gig I think you might as well get in touch with Aldi site acquisitions now.

Not a snowball's chance in hell of that happening.

IMO, God forbid. I couldn't think of anything worse. I think Venus, Lowe, Benson and possibly even Johnson (I question his credibility and motivation to have hung around such a bunch of deadbeats for so long) all need binning as soon as possible.

Apologies, last night was a bit heavy and feeling a bit under the weather today!

Not sure what that makes us then!!! We were once second ahead of Bournemouth and now they are 2nd with us trailing in at 9th.

Found Mowbray's remarks in LT quite staqgering 'highly unlikely' he's quoted as saying. What a way to prepare for a key match tomorrow - if I was a player I'd be thinking 'this fecker's given up why the feck should I bother and put my body and possibly career on the line'.

You start him then pull him off when we are winning a game and in control as opposed to chasing a game and expecting Dack to continually come to the rescue from the bench.

Got a few connections to PNE with family, friends etc. Consensus is they will be up for it more than us and they are unusually confident about the outcome of this fixture. Think that tells you quite a bit about Rovers' dire form etc. I'll keep my powder dry until I see what team the Mowbray tombola generates! Think we might nick a draw and go unbeaten for the rest of the season but sadly it will be too little too late - Mowbray has a habit of finishing the season well when results mean nothing but no doubt it impresses that lot in Pune!

I was also on that night. Particularly remember the 2nd half as we attacked the 'Town End' and if I recall we missed a couple of great chances including hitting the bar when I thought it was easier to score. We didn't score many but was amazed we couldn't notch one, and what would have been a 'golden goal', with Garner and Crawford up front and Burke (think he was a 1 goal in 5 man for us), Kendall and Speight all capable of weighing in from midfield. Know how you must have felt in the Red House but I met Burke on several occasions when his football career was over and he came across as a very decent lad.

This is such a sh1t league anything could happen.

It's all down to Mowbray. Who signs the players, selects the team, sets the tactics, motivates or otherwise the players. The buck stops with him. No one else is to blame. You would see a different response with a Neil Warnock type in charge.

I think Lowe is a real oddball - seen more life in a dead sheep.

Sorry for all the Rovers' fans there today, even the 'Happy Clappers'. Words simply fail me. Time for some medicine - given a bottle of Prunotto Barolo for Easter, let's see what it's like!

I have! Backed Rovers to win in my main bet and got a tenner on Maja anytime scorer at 3/1 and a fiver on 3-1 scoreline at 21/1.

Just had a lovely lunch, enjoying the sunshine and even more so a few Bowland beers (going through their great selection). Everything seems great today so I've even put a few quid on a Rovers' win at just better than evens. This miserable run has to end sometime and why not today. Sadly, feels like my heart is ruling my head.

Saw him in either his first game for us or one of his first games and he put in some terrific balls. Cue Tony to p1ss him about by playing him out of position and now, IMO, we have a p1ssed off player. You can't really blame Giles. Think we have a real clown as a manager.

Coupled with the fact the opposition have now sussed us out and there's no credible plan b.

TBH Chris I wouldn't go if it was free admission! I know a number of people who feel exactly the same way. Personally, I've had enough of Mowbray and, IMO, his managerial shenanigans and I wont be at Ewood again until he's gone.

Get things right Chris! Firstly, I did not push for Neil - I merely stated that folk I knew with good PNE connections believed he would become Rovers' manager which I think he nearly did! Others on here have posted Neil was interviewed by Rovers back in April last year with some saying he turned us down! As for Bruce and WBA if you have nothing better to do then troll through all the stuff on the subject at the time!

Managers and directors get an easy ride at Ewood these days. Think you've been around long enough to remember when the crowd knew a manager's time was up and feelings were well and truly vented both in the ground and in Nuttall Street and more often that not, it brought action. These days I think most supporters just shrug their shoulders in Mowbrayesque fashion. The supporters get the management team they generally deserve.
