Oh dear God - really? That's the plan?This isn't Field of Dreams. "Back him and we shall display bog-standard defending skills, we will gain in fitness, organisation, square pegs will slither into round holes and Brereton will come good".

Invariably that occurs when managers are given time

I sympathise with what your saying but I think we've got to the point where Mowbray can't take us any further forward. What's the point of sticking?

We need to roll the dice.

Sadly when these owners roll the dice they roll a pair of ones, not a pair of sixes

I do , which is why I don't want the clowns who sacked Sam Allardyce to replace him with Steve Kean being set loose once again. On the other hand if that's ok with you...........

Think your a troll , your def on your own anyway

Tony has ran his race. Times up.He has lost the plot. Time for a new man with new ideas..

This doesn't surprise me,  it's on a par with many of his utterances over recent months. Absolute nonsense. It does show though that he's floundering really badly now trying to explain away the dross we've been serving up.

Hopefully even Waggott and /or the owners will start to take note.

Would Waggott really sack him though. Does he even have the power or authority to do so? Even if he did I just know it was probably take months of back and forth to India. See that's the problem.

Our last 3 managerial appointments have had a promotion on there CV. 

This is exactly the same as you calling out the league 1 stat. 

Things have changed since the start of the eras.

Of those 3 Coyle and Mowbray were not exactly in demand. Lambert made sure he had a release clause in his contract if working for Venkys really was as bad as he was told - it was and he walked

Care to share some examples of managers who can't organise a defence, who assembled a side that would consistently concede two or more goals and are kept in their jobs...then miraculously come good?

 

We need those imaginary guys.

You've given yourself away with that comment that you are obviously on the wind up.

How can it be irrelevant that the manager's dreadful transfer dealings look set to leave us in severe difficulty both on the pitch and in terms of FFP?

[Burrells Boy]

Nice man, out of his depth, no plan, enough is definitely enough.

Stop living in fear, you make this same point over and over again, it’s tiresome and annoying

He's not a troll, he's the grammar police and he ain't half gonna write you a ticket for your post! ?

You want  Mowbray fired as an act of revenge or some kind of punishment beating. If FFP is kicking in to hurt us the likes of Chris Hughton are not going to be interested in joining and it doesn't matter who was responsible - if indeed it was Mowbray. Meanwhile the likes of Peter Reid and Iain Dowie get appointed........

For me, it's like Bush and Blair with the Iraq war. They need a proper plan and to have thought through (at least a few of)the next steps etc.

4 mins of BBC highlights isn't long enough to fit them all in.

I'd hope the owners would bypass Waggott completely and merely instruct him to hand Mowbray his P45.

If Waggott was worth his salt he should be reporting back to the owners that in his view the manager is struggling badly. I bet he isn't though.

You can leave off with the I’m scared of who they would appoint and records in league one, we have heard it and quite honestly nobody cares anymore, we are looking to the future, you can remain in the past
