Morgan might not be the most likeable person with some of the things he's done in the past but in the last year he needs to be praised for putting the government and ministers through the ringer with all the mistakes they've made with covid and their response to it. 3 Quote

Bigdoggsteel Posted February 22, 2021 Posted February 22, 2021 (edited) Someone needs to ask Mowbray what was the situation with Daniel Ayala's medical, was due process carried out? We signed the biggest crock of a centre half in the league. Huddersfield signed Richard Keogh after that horrific (self inflicted) injury, but he is still after coming in and starting week in week out. The Ayala signing absolutely stinks, so stupid, especially for a team that was already weak at the back Edited February 22, 2021 by Bigdoggsteel 3 Quote

The Ayala signing absolutely stinks, so stupid, especially for a team that was already weak at the back When you have two centre halves ( Lenihan, Williams ) who both are injury prone and potential back ups ( Nyambe , Johnson ) who are also injury prone it was the height of folly to sign another injury prone centre half. We got lucky with Wharton coming through, he wasn't part of the plan anymore than Magloire, Carter and Grayson were. 3 Quote
rog of the rovers Posted February 22, 2021 Posted February 22, 2021 (edited) My birthday is later this week, and like most I'm sure, have a particularly good memory when it comes to games on or around my birthday, therefore I decided to do a bit of research on TM's record in February throughout his tenure at Blackburn Rovers, the results as follows..... Championship February's under Mowbray 16/17 - P2 W1 D1 L0 F2 A1 Pts4 GD+1 18/19 - P5 W0 D1 L4 F5 A11 Pts1 GD-6 19/20 - P7 W2 D4 L1 F10 A6 Pts10 GD+4 20/21 - P4 W0 D0 L4 F2 A6 Pts0 GD-4 Overall P18 W3 D6 L9 F19 A24 Pts15 GD-5 Edited February 22, 2021 by rog of the rovers 1 Quote

Pity he was missing in action when king rat was robbing the club blind........I lost all respect for him during that era. Just on Mowbray, I can't really add anything further, but one thing I've been saying for a while now is this football club isn't setup to make the next step to Premiership football, the manager is only one part of the business model, the rest is a complete shit show. Until the owners leave, this club will never progress, its as simple as that for me. Edited February 22, 2021 by Gav 2 Quote

Yes, he's usually the last to turn on anybody. Ex players like that are normally pretty careful not to burn any bridges vis a vis future coaching jobs. Quote

Tyrone Shoelaces Posted February 22, 2021 Posted February 22, 2021 I know it won't come as a surprise to most on here but Mowbray's main failing is he doesn't know how to build a team. He just collects players. 5 Quote

I was more pointing towards the fact that he is somehow fitter than Ayala. I haven't seen him play for Huddersfield, so I won't judge his performances based off a few lines of stats. Have you watched him play for them? Quote
Jimmy612 Posted February 22, 2021 Posted February 22, 2021 There's a deafening silence on Rovers' website and social media today, given that it's TMs 4-year anniversary. They've managed to congratulate Nyambe on his engagement, wish Pascal Chimbonda and Phil Jones a happy birthday, but as of yet haven't so much as acknowledged that the manager has been here 4 years.... Fear of a backlash on social media aside, what could be the reason for this? TM advised them not to acknowledge on the back of recent form? OR, could it be that the social media/web team have been advised not to bring this joyous occasion to the attention of the general public? 2 Quote

No, I have seen more than enough of him prior to being out of the game for over a year well into his 30s with serious injury though and merely being available doesnt mean that he is competent anymore. For a bit of perspective, they have conceded 11 goals in 7. Branthwaite has also started 7 games, we have conceded 7 in them, scoring 4. I dont think he would be a name mentioned if he wasnt Irish.

rigger Posted February 22, 2021 Posted February 22, 2021 If Mowbray is still manager next season. I will not be going to first team games, I am going to get my Rovers fix by going to U23s games. It would be a statement and maybe even news-worthy if the U23s where getting bigger crowds than the first team. Maybe even Puna would hear about it. 4 Quote

Not sure why you feel it necessary to bring the Irish part in. Very odd. I have watched far more of him than you and I think he is a good player. You are throwing stats around, admitting you haven't watched him. Very silly really. Comparing him to Brantwaithe in some tenuous way, I don't even know what you're getting at there. I hardly have to go into explaining the numerous external factors at play with regards to that comparison. Pretty sure you have been critical of the Brantwaithe signing too. Strange post. Missing my point to start with and then continuing down the road. Very peculiar. Edited February 22, 2021 by Bigdoggsteel Quote
