We got lucky with Souey and the Barcodes, I can't see lightning striking twice in the same place.

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 

Coyle relegated us. TM near pulled off mission impossible. Everything good that has happened has been in spite of Mowbray everything bad is because of him. Five tour head a wobble

Who took us down? Coyle may have started the process but he didn’t finish it. We had a chance to stay up, lack of ambition in games such as Preston and somebody else , fails me, but anyway we drew 0-0. Relegated. I don’t see much particularly good that any journeyman manager wouldn’t have been able to do. Not my head that needs wobbled, it’s your tinted specs . Open your eyes lad

I can't see skint Ipswich paying compo for him.

Also i wouldn't call him a failure that's a bit ott, i know the guy is beginning to grate but lets keep it on the level. He's just doing what he always does all the evidence is out there. This is his level of operating and his way of working is only conducive to ending seasons somewhere in the middle 3rd.

It's what he's good at you might say so any club looking to establish itself in that group could do a lot worse. 

Here though just like at Boro it's time to try and move it up a notch.  It's time for the first time in Venkys tenure for these billionaires to step away from the shackles of the HSH scrapyard and source a manager either with a name, a pedigree or look at the over achievers in this league who are operating on smaller budgets.

It can be done, there's no guarantees but that's just part and parcel of it all. The better candidate you go after the better chance you have of success.

Out of interest who’s in the HSH circus these days?

[simongarnerisgod]

in my current despise of mowbray the manager ,i have to say we should have absolutely annihilated everyone in our league one season and should have won the league by 15/20 points,he had us playing with the choke in all the way through and did`nt even have the balls to go for the title,we could get away with it in a lower league,at this higher level all his faults are there for everyone to see

Leeds spend 3 seasons in league one how many 'journey men' managers did they go through. What about Sunderland? 

Maybe you need to take your doom and gloom specs off and realise that alot of good work has been done during Mowbrays tenure.

Do we need compo. Not having to pay him off would be more than enough if he walked away.

Prediction: Mowbray will win one and draw two of the next five and the train will rumble on.

WDL.

Only when Waggott goes and there is some accountability will anything else change.

Venkys will only get involved when we are in the bottom three.

My prediction. Finish the season in 14th. Then a nice juicy contract extension for Mowbray.

I’m not going by other so called bigger clubs that shouldn’t be there failures. I’m going by what Iv seen with my own eyes and my own beliefs for my club and it’s ambition. Mowbray doesn’t work for either

I can just hope that Watford don't wup us 6-0 next Wednesday likethey did Bristol City. Who knows what Venkys might do in response that loss of face?

Be great if Souness could be convinced to return, if only to slap some sense into Venkys.

He ain't walking with over a year left so there'd have to be some sort of severance.

Best way all around would be make the decision now that we need to change in summer. Stick to it no matter if we improve a bit and finish strong as usual with the dead rubbers. Then shake hands say thanks, pay him up and move on .... or away from 1st team duties at least.

Has Mowbray ever 'walked' before?

"It's embarrassing to go 10 games without a win. I'm an honourable guy." Tony Mowbray resigns as Coventry (L1) manager - September 2016

About 4 months later he was Rovers manager.

I honestly think we could be at the start of the spiral to end all death spirals and genuinely could go 10 games without a win... He still won't walk though.

Someone mentioned he was on the scrapheap when he arrived here and they weren't wrong so I doubt he'd give up a good thing, especially with no crowds or chairman on his back.

No one's doubting that. 

Promotion from League 1 was a good achievement and, because the other teams were generally poor, we had a good time. 

He's signed some good players. 

Apart from that, his football is awful. He took us down because he couldn't get the team to win more games. Three seasons of mediocrity. 

We aren't progressing. The football is just abysmal. 

Taxi for mowbray.
