He's so obviously run his course, it's hard to see why he still has his supporters. Why?

Do they support Mowbray over Rovers?

Generally it's the same people who told us to support Kean and Coyle as well. More supporters of whichever manager is in situ than Mowbray himself. 

We've well and truly stagnated under TM and the rot has set in. The longer he stays the worse it's going to get.

I’m sorry Paul, but it really has bewildered me that running Blackburn Rovers sensibly has been made to look as arduous as sewing in sparring mitts, but that is how it has been presented throughout th

I certainly don't claim to be 'ITK' at all but shortly after the final whistle yesterday I received a text from someone extremely close to the club - not the playing or coaching side - who doesn't nor

I keep coming back in my head to just how ridiculous this whole scenario is. February 2017 - facing likely relegation they finally sack Owen Coyle - he should never have been allowed anywhere nea

He's not going anywhere, anytime soon. Our only hope is someone comes in for him... 

I think the only persons coming in for him would be the men in white coats!

Mr Kipling is rumoured to be keen. If they can get to Tony they can get Mrs M's Drizzle recipe. 

The art of good comedy is to know when to exit stage left, taxi for Hoochie.

(But I'm still laughing over someone poaching of Mowbray) 😆

Brilliant.

Dream on guys. I’d be flabbergasted if they canned him.

The mistake most people make (IMO) is two-fold. Firstly, assuming that the owners have the same objectives as the fans, and secondly, the old chestnut of “it has to be this year or we’ll lose Armstrong/Rhodes/Shearer/Speedie/Field/Pickering...”

The owners would probably be delighted to cash in on Armstrong (assuming they even know who he is), and we lose our best players no matter where we finish, or who is the manager. The view from Pune is very different to the view from the Riverside.

He really is unbelievable. He appears to have forgotten the £7 Million he spent on Brereton, the £5 Million on Gallagher, the wonderkid on loan from Liverpool, the Germany international central midfielder and the England international who played for Liverpool that he spent the last of his budget on.

He also seems to have forgotten that when Stoke brought O'Neill in they were bottom of the league. The thing is despite O'Neill spending just £2 Million in his time at Stoke he hasn't targeted any slow build and in 12 months he has taken them from bottom of the league to top 6 contenders.

Shameless. The clues where there when he decided on the Brereton gamble when we needed a defence.

TM: “We’re in the middle of winter and the pitch isn’t fine. It’s really, really poor. “So does the team and coach have to find a different way to play? Yeah, I think we’re at that stage."

After listening to him babble on about adapting to a new approach he's now looking to change? So another 6-12 month transition period? What a bellend.

Had to laugh at the Stoke article talking of the value of their loan players. Yes Tony, the same loan players you could be targeting. Then he mentions an 'international manager' being in charge - Jesus Christ....

Not a chance he's walking, the guy is in full on self preservation mode.

Mark Hughes spent £90m at Stoke by the time he was sacked in 2018, we were spent £1.7m that year.

Mowbrays comments are nonsense, but some perspective maybe.

And how many of those players that £90 Million was spent on are still at Stoke? Not many I would wager.

We probably haven't spent £90m in our entire history I'd wager.

Just sayin.
