Same old same old

[matt83]

Mowbrays rovers. Say no more. 

[G Somerset Rover]

One win in six.

When did we last play well? Brentford first half?

[Cherry Blue]

Mowbray straight down the tunnel after handshake but sadly no towel 😡

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Poor, poor result, two points dropped, TM is too limited, time to hang up his boots.

[TimmyJimmy]

Elliott had a bad game.

We overhit everything.

More players sitting behind the guy with the ball and no one in front (when we're attacking).

No movement.

Poor match  poor result.

We are nowhere near. We have 8/11ths maybe 9/11ths or a very very good team.

We have a manager who can’t get the best out of them. We waited too long with Bowyer and we will do the same again.

Poor today.  At least BB and Dack looked dangerous....... and we got a point.  Fair result.

We've been poor for quite a while.  Surely the penny dropping that the manager isn't up to it?

[simongarnerisgod]

currently dripping in apathy only thankful that i don`t have to walk back up livesey branch road then hit the traffic!!!!!!,wish mowbray would **** off,the whole coaching side needs a fresh approach

[DeeCee]

Abject

[philipl]

Two points dropped by Mowbray.

The players we have are easily good enough to challenge for promotion, the Manager is clueless.

Great goal by Rothwell, Dack back as good as ever but no shape to the team. 

[booth]

Still pricking about with the ball till the last minute.

60 MINUTES till a change after that dross. Douglas staying on for a full 90 after being terrible since he came here.

Mowbray you failed us as a manager in 2020, and I fully expect you to do the same in 2021.

2 points lost. Poor.

Bloody hell Paul.....I know it’s the season of good will but......I’m sure you would stand by Mowbray when he took us down.

I’m hoping the final myth that we play good football Mowbray is has finally been busted. Dull pointless possession football. 

[Tom]

Not followed much but:

 

• Stunning, stunning goal
• Shite result
• Amazing to have Dack and Ben back
• Douglas back to Leeds next week please

[OldEwoodBlue]

plus side...

nobody can say "give him til Xmas"

[joey_big_nose]

Two obvious things from today's game. We have to drop Gallagher and Douglas. 

Gallagher should be pretty straightforward with Dack and Brereton back. However we absolutely have to sign a left back from somewhere. Douglas is an absolute liability.

[1864roverite]

Too much dithering, too many loose balls, one mistake costs us a goal again.

 

[Torgeir]

Nothing happened before Gallagher basically subbed himself off. WIth Brereton and Dack back, we will score loads of goals going forward. I would start Downing over Holtby at the moment, the latter needs a little rest before coming back to his best. Fluke goal for them and we were the superior side, but not to be. Good to see Dack playing well.

 

Oh, and we need a new left back.

[Angry_Pirate]

These results are solely on Mowbray and us to break teams down... but my god, Tony Pulis and the like are leaving a legacy of shite on football. Stoke and Rotherham last week, these today. Just with the added long throws and baseball cap.

Always been against it, but is it time to trial 60 minute games with the clock stopping. Football shouldn't be about shithousery and time-wasting to the level some teams use it.

Maybe I'm just moaning about it because we have never been able to do it. But its every fucking week.

[yellowsubmarine]

Is Holtby's contract up at the season? Should use his money for Rothwell or loan Elliot for another season.

I seriously don't think we will miss him.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

We're like a Dog chasing its tail...no form whatsoever.

Going nowhere.

Wed's left back is pretty decent.

[neophox]

Yes Is Cunningham available? He could defend.

Masterstroke by Gally. If it wasnt for that, Mowbray will have played him till the 89min.
