Disappointing he didn't go for it but let's be happy to get out of this league. Pity. Will be a Long time before we see another run of 1 loss in 30-plus games

Doaksie Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Well, it's going to the final day. That's about all I can say. Would have been nice to begin the day a point ahead, but Mowbray clearly has no real desire to claim the title. Nights out, weakened side. Rightly or wrongly, he feels the job is done.
G Somerset Rover Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Will post a proper match report later but my God Charlton were terrible. Just shows we neeed to get out of this God awful league when we’ve lost to them. They got away with one, we should have scored at least one second half.
imy9 Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 As was stated before the game, a number of our players have been carrying injuries. So why risk them when we have been promoted? I would have loved for us to win the title, but I prefer for the likes of Raya and Dack to be fit for next season!
neophox Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Antonsson should had got the chance today! Been better than Samuel all season. Shame we didnt get any points today..
Exiled in Toronto Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Very unlucky not to get something from that game. As said above, the fringe players picked today showed why Mowbray stuck with lads carrying injuries. The subs however were a different matter, Travis/Whittingham in centre-mid looked excellent together.

It's not often you get the opportunity to win a title. Opportunity missed. Opportunity thrown away not just missed. Barring a miracle on the final day the Title is Wigan's when it could have been ours. Paul Cook will be having multiple orgasams at Mowbrays gross stupidity. Paul Cook wants the Title even though his team are doing a good impression of bottling it.
Joar Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Ah well, not really that bothered. Would have liked Tomlinson on the field rather than Wittingham, but fair enough

bigbrandjohn Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 I guess it bolsters Mowbrays argument for investment when he goes to India. He needs a squad that can play as well as each other when they step up. We have been pretty lucky with serious injuries. If we lose some key players in the Championship we would be shagged. Disappointed for the fans who made the long trip down. And a good chance to finish top of the table with Wigan drawing at home. Oh well we are out of Division 3. We need to stay out.
Backroom Mike E Posted April 28, 2018 Backroom Posted April 28, 2018 Straw-clutching but could it be negotiation tactics w/ Venky's? 'Yeah we got promoted, but we could've won it! If only we had that bit more quality, and we'll DEFINITELY need that quality in the next league.'
davefarnworth Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 This happens. Need Dack and four new players. Venkys have to have deep pockets post season. Good achievement with a poorly run club though.

USABlue Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Disappointed, sounds like we had enough of the game to win it so not gonna beat Mowbary up too much. Now we have to win and hope Wigan lose. Will be nice ti pound gravel up cook's arse in the last minute of the season though. Would love to be losing the scire two late goals to take it from them. Need TWO Rovers wins and the title is ours.

In hindsight, we probably wouldn't have gone up if Dack had been out much of the season but injuries work in your favour when things are going well. The squad needs rebuilding for next season - and Mowbray has to decide which of our young players he trusts enough to play in the first team.

Exiled in Toronto Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 The only thing wrong with 3-5-2 today was Caddis, they barely troubled us in an attacking sense. They got a scabby goal, we hit the bar was the difference.

Backroom Mike E Posted April 28, 2018 Backroom Posted April 28, 2018 Nothing wrong with a formation if you have the personnel. Would prefer to play a formation that suits our personnel , however. How have our u23s looked when playing this formation and might it signal Mowbray thinking of bringing a few in for pre-season?
