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

I have read and watch the Mowbray's pre Coventry interviews. Plenty of passion there from him which I never doubt he has or he wants to get us promote. I don't doubt his commitment or that he is honest man. But the problems has been his lack of quality defensive signings like a back up right back or a couple of centre backs. Or we go on the losing runs too much at the wrong times of the season just as we are a couple of points of top 6. 

I don't hate him or wish any bad on him at all. He rebuilt a club and fanbase after Coyle appointment and sacking. But we want promotion back to the Premier League now and not be mid table championship team

So why did you start with 'Sorry guys I'm not with you on this'? What exactly is the point you're trying to make?

I don't know what else to say really. I agree he should go. The reason, he's not cutting it. Don't care what he says. If he was winning every game I don't think you would either. But he's not winning, everyone is angry, people are insulting him. I don't think that's fair. That was and is my point.

TM can’t say he’s had a rough ride with fans at all in in his time here.

Currently he’s getting some stick (but even that ‘stick’ is often prefixed with “he’s been great for us, but it’s probably time for a change”... not exactly pitchfork stuff), as he would everywhere, that’s football and that’s football fans - he knows that but he’s just not used to it, and so he isn’t taking kindly, as until recently he’s had a very comfortable time with both fans and local media...

Can you give an example of these insults?

It’s possible I’ve missed them, as I am guilty of skim reading on here, but barring the odd comment, I think people en masse are just fed up of the same mistakes happening over and over without being corrected....

Ismael working absolute wonders for Barnsley. Fair play to all involved.

Still hear “But who would we get that’s better than Mowbray” from a decent amount of our fans. 

4 years is a long time, but it’s not long enough for me to remember he was L1 when we got him (L2 the year before?), and that nobody was bloody delighted at the time, wasn’t on a single wish list in the Coyle Successor thread.

Nothing that needs escalating to the Mods K-Hod.  I'm just getting tired of the non footballing criticism.  Phrases such as 'The comments of a coward' and 'Honourable Man my ar*e' focus on the guys character not football. The Brockhall thread is full insinuations of under hand goings on and negative views on the guys integrity. He should go for football reasons and there are plenty of those without calling his character and honesty into question. Just that and no more really, just a request to keep it civil and fair.

I was going to post this in the match day thread but think this thread is more appropriate see that it's about the formation Mowbray wants us to play under him. 

He wants to play 4-3-3 this season but apart from a few games and wins we lack the organisation, players understanding their roles and knowhow of playing it. Look at Dean Smith's Aston Villa team today at Leeds and this season they looked so organised and understanding their jobs. Plus he played the same at Brentford. Very good manager

Just reading a quote from Mick McCarthy - " If anybody says one of my teams is nice to play against I'd be so annoyed and insulted.  The best teams are horrible to play against for whatever reason. 

So if anybody comes off and says " That was a nice game Mick, you are really pleasant to play ", well I might be packing it in and playing golf somewhere I think ".

That's Rovers to a tee - " Nice to play against ".

Just caught Mowbray's interview on Radio Lancashire - ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
