Tony Mowbray Discussion

[Fraserkirky]

Clearly lost the dressing room. He isn’t going anywhere though just now. Maybe end of season.

Mass clearout in the summer of players and management team.

[den]

Is Waggott strong enough to tell Venkys they have to sack him?

To be fair, whilst it is frustrating, it is irrelevant, Mowbray is in a safe bubble with mates around him and disinterred owners above him.

 

You do have to wonder where we dug them up from

[tina]

Safe as houses. His mate Maggot in charge. Indians looking forward to the IPL. We protest in vain. Hope I'm wrong

[windymiller7]

I keep checking back on here hoping someone's heard at least a sniff of a rumour, but no, nothing. It's so depressing & made worse knowing that we can't even get down to Ewood any time soon to vent our spleens & show what we think.

Even worse, I can imagine Mowbray & Waggott sat in his office reading the comments on here, pissing themselves laughing.

"Here Steve, read this one - Mowbray is clueless & needs potting now - Ha ha, if only they knew"

"Nah, Tony even better, look here, they've actually got a thread with people suggesting who should replace you! Ha ha"

"We are Blackburn Rovers & deserve better? Ha Ha Bollocks! BORO BORO BORO!! Ha Ha"

🤬🤬

Welcome!

You are not wrong, in fact you've hit the proverbial nail on head.

However it is Mowbray that runs the Ewood show, not Swag, on behalf of the Pune Poo.

'Owning' a Football club whilst using some other idiots cash is what he's dreamed about.

It's based on some Americans philosophy, I'll try and find the article I read on this from years ago. 

Incumbent dictators are not dislodged easily

I’ve been doing the same all day it’s so demoralising. I’ve paid for most of the games on iFollow this season, I’m not paying another tenner while he stays in charge I cannot be arsed.

Hi All Over Asia. I'm not a newbie. Lost my account to another person during the upgrade. Been here since 1996. Taken my girlfriend's name. Previously  davefarnworth. You take care and thank you for the welcome

Did you know that "THE NAME TONY MOWBRAY"  is an anagram of "NO WAY TO THE MR NYAMBE"

It's correct. Check it.

Coincidence?  I think not.

Its also an anagram of ONE MENTAL BARMY TWAT

Or at least, it should be.

Have a feeling after yesterday's result and performance he has.

No - dressing room is clearly sign posted at most grounds.

Best comedy line on here !

I'd wager he does the exact opposite.

Ha ha, I bet one or two checked it to see if it actually was a proper anagram as well.

Because he is still here after 4 painful years. Of course nobody is actually unsackable however but I’m sure you knew that or do you just miss exaggeration for effect 

Four painful years. Yep it was so painful getting promoted from league 1 at the first attempt. And 2 subsequent seasons of consolidation in the championship were also acceptable to most. It's only this season that things are starting to stagnate. 

[matt83]

Slammed at work today so turned my phone off. I was hoping that when I turned it back on would be several messages about his departure. Nothing. Just someone pointing out if we win the £176 euro millions on Friday we’d still not be able to clear the Venkys debt. 🙄

Failure from his appointment. Relegated us. Yes we got promoted from league 1 but the football was horrible, no style , no plan, we got up in spite of him. Had a big budget and players too good for the division we didn’t need to sell. Two further years of poor quality football, false dawns, missed opportunities all while not having to sell and opportunity to spend. All in all, failure 

[DeeCee]

The writing was on the wall when he failed to push to win the Div. 1 title.

Man's a fucking fraud.

No way he'll leave on his own accord, unfortunately we're stuck with him (and Swag) for the foreseeable future.

Mowbray out!

Has Mowbray ever 'walked' before?

Yeah. At Coventry. Possibly boro as well. 

[matt83]

We’re undoubtedly his biggest success since getting wba promoted 15 ish years ago. Unfortunately for us with his failure at other clubs little old Blackburn Rovers is the peak for Mowbray. He’s not getting a shot at a team above us or a club bigger than us and he’s certainly not getting a job with such autonomy. He knows this and he’ll hang on to this gravy train with everything he’s got.

Yes but as has been mentioned on here, he won't get a bigger job than this anymore. I don't claim to know what he is being paid, but I'm sure he won't command whatever his salary is, at a league 1/2 club which is the best he could ever hope for, should we ever get rid of him.
