What a wild fake claim 

Do a poll maybe? 

Its hardly wild to think that if there was even a slither of a chance of it, a manager who has taken a club up and then not only kept them up for 4 years running with a comparatively minimal budget, but got them into Europe as well as a second top 10 finish would be a brilliant appointment for a mid table Championship side.

lets be honest,we are never getting promoted under mowbray,in fact we are not even going to challenge,i can give you a cast iron guarantee that we will finish mid table or lower,if by some biblical miracle waggot sacks him or he decides he`s had enough,we could do worse than give the job to johnson,he knows the players and would bring a fresh approach,which is needed

...or Kean, Bowyer, Appleton, Coyle, Berg, Lambert...( anyone Venky's have ever appointed).

This is the longest period in 50 plus years, when we have never been remotely in contention....

There's no way Dyche would come here, that tells you how far we've fallen.

You need to change your mentality Chaddy.

I once asked you a question - if you were lying on your death bed and the only person who could save you was a 'Dingle' Consultant Surgeon, what would you do?

I think we know the answer.

All this sh1te about Burnley is a nonsense.  Whether it be Coyle, Cook, Dyche or anyone else with a Burnley connection, if they could move Rovers forward as a club then you would snap their hand off.

Time you showed some intellectual maturity.

We'd three ex-Dingles playing in the same team for us back in the day - Blacklaw, Joyce, Connelly. I suppose Chaddy would have been boycotting a team like that.

I don't think we do. 

[frosty]

Considering Chaddy’s opinion on Coyle swung from week to week depending on results (well, more month to month considering how rarely we got a good result under him), I can’t imagine him not accepting an excellent manager in Dyche if by some miracle he ended up here.

I wouldn't want that dingle anywhere near the Blackburn Rovers manager chair. We had one ex dingle in the hotseat we don't need or want another in there,

I'd rather have a dingle than someone with zero professional pride who's only hanging around to bump up his pension

He’d be doing a jig down his street (dodging the Road Sweeper) if we signed Dwight McNeil.

The problem with Coyle is that he was a busted flush with a managerial career in a tail spin, not that he was a former Burnley manager.

Mowbray is the right manager to keep us flattering to deceive and bumbling around mid-table until he decides his pension pot will suffice.

This is such a stupid argument and far too many people use it on here. What does it even mean? Is it some dig because he’s an older bloke or summat? 
 

When you get up to work, get paid and x amount of quid gets shoved aside in pension contributions - what are you doing? You’re working until your pension pot suffices. What you’ve just tried to use as a bit of a dig at Mowbray is what every other working person is doing in life too. 
 

Mowbray has worked in football for over 40 years for fuck sake and there’s posters on here who do nothing but moan about how this is his “last pay day for the pension pot”. Get over yourselves. It’s another job for him, and if he did get sacked or does leave I have no doubt he’ll be back at another club in a matter of time, being paid and...shock horror....building his pension pot. 
 

What an evil sod

[Mattyblue]

Dreams is correct.

Apart from newly promoted Ainsworth at Wycombe, Mowbray is the longest serving manager in the league. Venky’s were seen as trigger happy loons by the wider game in 2017 (though not necessarily true as Bowyer got a very fair crack of the whip, these owners are prone to long periods of inertia), so for Mowbray to last so long and seemingly improve the club year on year means he will not be short of offers when he does finally leave.

If you are going to replace Mowbray, why would replace him with someone who has a worse win ratio for Wigan? Both manager got promotion in the same season and spent 2 seasons in the Championship with pretty much the same resources. 

Cook is not even a sideways step, the man is has managed 2 seasons in the Championship as his highest level and both were poor. 

 

 

Same resources? I do not remember them buying players for 5 and 7 million?

" Seemingly " is the most relevant word in that post.

[Dreams of 1995]

Well, when Mowbray inherited the squad we had the likes of Wes Brown, Gordon Greer, Stokes et al kicking about. We were in the bottom three of the Championship, hardly a saleable asset in the entire Club and on our way down after a decade of waste and struggle.

We now have, on paper, a very competitive squad with 2 decent players for each position and are looking more and more like an attacking football team. Results have been Rovers fashion but Forest aside we have lost to 2 relegated clubs and give them a good game whilst we were at it too.

If you don't think the club has improved since the day he came then I am sorry but you are quite far removed from reality.

Considering the way the club is still run off the pitch, the improvement on it shouldn’t be sniffed at - and wouldn’t be if club’s were looking for a manager.

[tomphil]

Certainly wouldn't really call him an old bloke in management terms he really should be at his peak now.  He does often cut the figure and come across as someone whose wind has gone from his sails though but again that's just judging a book by its cover.

Anyone itk will say he works extremely hard but i think at times he may have been concentrating too much on the backroom stuff building up the inside of the club. He seems to have a real appetite to be seen as revolutionary in that area but on the pitch it's often looked like play it safe and go through the motions. Look after the squad and put a lot of responsibility onto his seniors and pals and hang others out to dry.

Hence the pension pot jibes, just keep plodding season after season until something either drops in your favour or the owners finally get fed up.

To me he's not the type who'll jack football in if he leaves here no matter how wealthy he'll be.

God, I’d go down there and carry him to Elwood myself!

A manager who would definitely get us promoted and keep us there and break Burnley hearts as well?

What Rovers fan could not get sweaty over that?

Doesn't like it up North i don't think but if you're going to do a project on the pitch to get promotion in a 3 year plan he's the type you'd be trying to get.
