Tony Mowbray Discussion

I've seen you fighting the good fight Pete, good on you.

To be fair, their insistence on deflecting any blame from Mowbray is bordering on some kind of illness.

From being a kid that 'stood' on The Blackburn End when confronted by leather trench coated Boltonians and Chelsea clambering out of The Nuttall Street Stand, I'm calling on you all to fight these bastards!!

WATR!!!

He’s quickly changed his tune, from that article...

‘I've always been a 'glass half full' character, which in many cases has blinded me and my immaturity but I'd like to think I have the intelligence to assess a business model that's stalled in a period of stagnation and is teetering on the lubricious slope of decline.’

 

Yet he was waxing lyrical about the structure and stability of the club - in his view largely in place due to the Venky/Mowbray relationship, literally this week in the Sheffield local rag, for example -  through Mowbray there has been a bridge. He has advised Venky’s on things, where investment is needed, and they’ve been happy to take it...a structure was brought in. ”  

 

Article just read like a collection of views from here to be honest put into a single article

''It wasn't until a baby fox emerged on the bridge connecting Hillsborough to Parkside Road over the River Don that I suddenly recaptured some sense of feeling, the adorable facial features a welcomed distraction before it scampered off into the darkness of the night.''

And they grow up to be Chicken Chokers so not all bad

The guy changes with how the wind is blowing. Hes all over SM so knows there's a Wind of Change coming so like Sharpe wants to be seen to be ahead of the curve.

Problem is that as the Vs like to feck our grey matter the WoC is likely to be a contract extension for Total Mess.

Was it ever in doubt? The ONLY club where results don’t matter. The last week has shown that this is now the ONLY club in England where the views of supporters do not matter one iota either - their prerogative, I suppose, but a complete collapse in ST sales and revenues will be the result with a return to the third division most likely.

A shameful spectacle.

I certainly won't be watching while that leach is in charge.

There's a few individuals on FB who still strongly support him though and excuse every defeat and shit performance under the guise of 'supporting the club through thick and thin'

Step forward Jamie Challender, John Brooker and Mark Sumner.

They don't seem to realize they aren't though they are just supporting a manager. A paid employee who's making a mess of his job which is, by normal clubs standards, to get results.

I doubt many of them have been around football more than a decade.

An utter shambles.

As if we want Mowbray in charge of a summer overhaul. His transfer dealings are generally poor and always signs some Boro reject.

There will be no point in allowing fans back in at this rate, no one will want to turn up!

Just noticed this tweet from Bennett.

Laughable how anyone currently connected with Rovers can complain about a lack of consequences to losing!

Was this...

Respectful, not a single swear word, and even garnered an equal response (fair play Bennett) but presumably censored because someone with clueless individual (probably an LT commenter) took offence.

Twitter is utterly toxic and the sooner governments and big companies stop treating the poisonous swamp as though it represents public opinion the better.

I see Warnock has just binned a couple, told they are out even before the season ends so he can give youth a go.

Total Mess is on the phone ......

It is just as I feared if Rich's article is correct.  

Venky's are very loyal to people that they trust and they trust Mowbray.  I can see Waggott and Mowbray selling them the utter cobblers narrative that this shambles of a season is due to the Pandemic and them buying it.

I really hope that I am wrong on this and they remove him at the end off the seaon.  If Mowbray is incharge next season then barring some miracle over the summner and complete change in his approach/attitude then  we will be in a relegation battle.

It's very dangerous letting a manager who knows he's on borrowed time, or is leaving when his contract is up, loose in a summer transfer window.

No telling what damage he might do whilst looking after people and serving other agendas. Typical of this lot though can't even see this is the perfect opportunity for real change.

Besides the first sales pitch to Venkys for this will be 'i need a new contract to convince others to stay'. I doubt one of them outside of the likes of Bennett & Evans really gives a toss if he stays or not. If they've any ambition they certainly shouldn't but if they like their comfort zone i suppose it might appeal.

We've had Mowbrays hamster wheel going round in circles for the past 3 seasons. Now it seems the Venky cycle is set to come around again. The peak of those cycles being a couple of seasons championship stability before the inevitable flip backwards and slide away.

Great, get your tickets bought for the Moggadon relegation show. Possession is 9/10ths of the law, results are just a sideshow.

Are Venkys really so thick? Every other club has had the COVID related issues, in fact the likes of Rotherham have suffered far more.

I think relegation “battle” is being optimistic.

I can't believe Rovers owners are so loyal to these 2 people in Waggott and Mowbray who need sacking asap after a disaster of a season following financial support from them. cant believe they trust them. In totally bewildering. 

What is Pasha here for? 

Why are they so loyal to Mowbray? Is it Balaji he speaks to mainly or the whole family of 4?

What a shocking morning this is ...” Mowbray to LEAD summer overhaul “

....you lead NOTHING with no one behind you ....he’s going to be a very lonely, but bloody well paid , “ leader “ at an empty Ewood Park next season.

What can we do , as a caring fan base , to bring out a change to this terrible situation ?

Absolutely disgraceful - yet again - but what can we do?

Getting rid of Venky's and starting afresh - even be it as a Phoenix club - is the only way we will ever move on from this nightmare. After almost 11 years of this garbage is there anyone who honestly believe they are suddenly going to snap out of their 'confusion' and run the club with a modicum of respect for the fans?

In the words of one of their bootlickers, 'get real'.

I'd be behind any plan which could feasibly get rid of them - but does anyone have one?

Sharp has to step up a bit here. I know he needs to keep the club onside to a point, but printing that drivel is quite clearly going to enrage 99% of our fan base (the other 1% are either club stooges or have had a knock on the head).

Somebody has to start bringing him to account. Our owners clearly aren’t going to.

Some man of integrity. Hanging around like a bad smell. Knowing the fans want him out and I'm guessing a lot of the players too. 

All the lies he has said about journeys and building and what has to happen this summer? A complete rebuild. 

No doubt when we are doing badly next season, he will point to all the transfers that needed to take place during the summer. Obviously it won't be his fault. 

You couldn't make this up 

Excuse based manager

It really is unbelievable. What an absolute mess. Anyone going to be buying this season's highlights DVD? Because next season will make this one look like 99/2000.

At this point you have to say relegation is nailed on. 

For the first time in 60 years of watching Rovers I’ll be backing us to go down at the bookies if Mowbray is still here in August. Just like when we appointed Coyle, it’s a licence to print money.
