You know as well as I, most or perhaps even all are doomed to "fall" under this ownership. Hence usage of that terminology.

The point I am trying to make, is that Mowbray at least deserves the standard amount of time to really implement his style I.E deal with "his problem", that's without even taking the aforementioned variables he has to cope with.

I think a large percentage of our fans even gave this to Coyle, myself included (despite initial outrage). Tony, (imo) has far better credentials for the task at hand, thus a poor result tonight wouldn't necessary be a marker of his chances.

How about what we fans 'deserve'?

We should expect no excuses from the guy who not only applied for the position but was accepted. It's not a charity!

I'll judge him after (his next) 10 posts.

Mowbray saying some good things on Radio Lancs about tonights game and beyond, encouraging I would say so far

[Bigdoggsteel]

He said he spent Thursday working on defensive moves. Which sounds great and was badly needed.

Just a fall guy in the BRFCS ownership vacuum...

We deserve a lot better Stuart, an overall summary of "sheer neglect" is putting it lightly for the Rao's. In terms of the match and the managers job in isolation, despite only a short amount of time- I'm encouraged and actually looking forward to sticking the radio on.

Not expectant either. A poor result will not change this. If we are still making the "Coyle" mistakes come the beginning of April, I'd pretty much expect some harsh questioning of the new boss.

One slightly worrying thing which TM said in his Roversplayer interview was that he watched the Utd game and didn't think he would be tweaking an awful lot. Certainly not too soon.

Slightly understandable given the timescales between his appointment and the Burton game but it does mean in the main, he will largely be leaving things as they are.

He did say that he would be "leaning" on his coaches for guidance on the players at this stage.

Surely if he watched Mahoney he'll start with him. Feeney and Conway were dreadful.

[Ricky]

If Kightly plays he's bound to score. Hoping the injury keeps him out.

I actually thought they both played well.

It makes you wonder if the players knew about a new manager after Coyle apparently missed training one day last week. If there was anything that let us down on Sunday, it was the tactics (gaping holes and high-line), not the players.

You would really hope so.

He'll likely have to start one of Conway or Feeney due to Bennetts suspension but Mahoney should definitely be starting ahead of those 2 at the moment.

Come on, be realistic.  What's posted on this MB does not affect the result!

It does if Glen Mullan is back in charge of subs and this is the place he's using to communicate with Mowbray.

[Tom]

Not sure what Mowbray and be expected to achieve in 3 days in terms of fitness but hopefully he's got them in a better mindset and knowing how their roles contribute to the team

[Fraserkirky]

My best guess would be

5-4-1

                         Steele

Nyambe Greer Lenihan Mulgrew Williams

                          Lowe

          Mahoney Guthrie Emnes

                         Graham

[Neal]

Apologies if this has been asked... Is this being televised anywhere?

Does he normally play a back 5? 

[JohnD]

It would be great if the regulars on here could decide before the kick off who to credit or blame for the result tonight.

I think the bus will be parked tonight by the sounds of things.

[RevidgeBlue]

Most important game for 2 or 3 seasons probably.

I think we need to win to generate the momentum to put a string of results together. That said if we can win 7 or win 6 and draw 4 of any of our remaining games we'll probably stay up.

Encouraging Mowbray has been looking at defensive work. That said hope we don't go like Palace under Allardyce and go from scoring plenty and not not winning to being unable to score and not winning.

I'll give him the rest of this season, the whole of next season, the season after that, and at least up until Christmas of the following season.  But no more than that. 

 

We've got to give him a chance to establish his vision and stamp his mark on proceedings. 

 

But if it all goes badly wrong then of course I'll deny all knowledge of this post and claim that I always knew he was hopeless

Don't know how to respond to that. Love you too Bryan!

[broadsword]

Give me a chance ffs

[Stuart]

[Tom]

No Mahoney but Conway and Feeney isn't what I had hoped but maybe he plans on keeping it tighter away. Let's see.
