Rovers vs Stoke City, 06/04/18, Ewood Park, 3pm Kick Off.

Got a feeling we will win today. Even if boring Tony starts with his favourites. Hope the latter is incorrect.

[blueboy3333]

It's a sad day. I'm choosing cycling over using my ST to watch Mowbray's plodders struggle to string passes together, put crosses in or attack with any conviction. 

My mind was made up when I saw that he was sticking with the same players and probably tactics that have won 1 game in 10. There's absolutely no reason not to play Buckley, Butterworth or Chapman from the start - not all of them, just one to add some interest to a horribly dull team.  But no, Tony has 'human qualities' like loyalty which are apparently more important than results on the pitch.

FYI Tony, nobody gives a f*@k about your values. They want a team that entertains and wins, not surrenders every week.

Mogga-don Mowbray Out.

Chapman alert ?

Chapman on Graham’s right - an unlikely story.

Some good or potentially bad news - Dack and his missus have split up. Again. Maybe he’ll put a fecking shift in today.

[Stuart]

TM quotes in today’s telewag:

”I like to think that one of my traits is loyalty. As I’ve tried to show this year with the team that got us out of League One, I’ve been loyal to all of all players. But there comes a time, and if it’s the case where one of the senior players has to be left out, then so be it and they’ll understand it’s not done through malice, but to get the right balance of the bench.”

What is he on about? Granted he wants to show some faith in people and give them a chance (which personally I’d prefer him to pick the best team to win games rather than for sentimental reasons) but: “They’ll understand”? “No malice”? It’s all just too nicely-nicey. Players should be fighting to be picked and disappointed to miss out.

Followed by the even more insightful:

”You need enough defenders, enough midfield players and enough attackers. Sometimes that balance will change, but we’ll pick the team and the subs and try to get the job done”.

In other news, apparently Dack has also fallen out with his gf again so watch out for his reaction today.

They have them now. They were sent to the schools for distribution.

Good. I could just imagine the scenes as a load of newbies turned up trying to get hold of their reserved tickets.

In the news like two days ago that he had bought her a £100k Range Rover. Hooray. 

Lad needs to buckle down and decide what matters. They’ll probably be back together by Tuesday.

Do they call it the curse of the OK magazine (or something like that). In all honesty though who really cares. It's about time he put a performance in and put all his focus on progressing his career.

He’s living right in the centre of Manchester now by the looks of it, Beetham Tower, I think.

What could possibly go wrong?

The distraction of her will ruin his career but he'll only realise when it's too late.

Pity she's so far below z list to get on even Strictly but something like that would end it for good it usually does for other celeb 'climbers'.

Just how much money are they throwing the little git ?  

About time he started earning it I really think we have Bentley mk2 here.

[OJRovers]

Setting off soon, might just turn round if I hear that Evans, Smallwood, Bennet and Conway are in the midfield.

 

[Stuart]

It’s surely a no brainier that it will be Conway that makes way. He looks like an understanding chap.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Did Dack buy his misses the wrong colour of Range Rover though?

Ahhh you see..It's a tough life at the top.

[bazza]

I thought someone said he bought her a Bentley Mark 2

[CD_93]

Dack out the squad. Travis dropped. Evans / Smallwood. No Chapman.

F**k this.

[SBlue]

Rothwell number 10?

Seems like Dackys head not right?

[Stuart]

Travis dropped for Evans and Smallwood.

Will Rothwell be allowed to replace Dack or will he be played out wide?

[Guest]

I feel physically fucking ill looking at that.

[BankEnd Rover]

Just seen the team? What on earth is wrong with our manager???? The only positive on that team is Rothwell! The rest of that midfield is shambles!

[skous18]

Rothwell starts instead of Dack. The latest not even in the group today :?

Benno and Arma on the wings with Smallwood and Evans in the middle.

thank god for Rothwell to give us some excitement
