If you have to make 5 tactical substitutions in a game. You have picked the wrong team in the first place

[Bigdoggsteel]

This is really an unacceptable performance

[garnersfags]

Genuine question. When did Buckley last have a really good game?

Really? we've been like this since November.

I know, we’re terrible. What I mean is their keeper looks nervy as hell and he could have been on holiday today. It’s pitiful.

Boring Tony will drive the fans away for good...

That is a big worry but very few posters seem  to agree , people think once lockdown is over and fans are allowed back in the ground , attendaces will be up , I can see the opposite happening at Ewood if Mowbray is still in charge ....

[Bigdoggsteel]

When was the last time we went 2 games without gifting our opponents a goal? 

[BankEnd Rover]

How can anyone defend this man??! Enough of this bull for what he’s done in the past. What has he done in the past 3 seasons!? I don’t care if we go & hammer this lot 6-1. He HAS to go.

Elliott the only one effectively direct 

Expand  

He’s our only bloody good player! Dolan looks okay but no end product. This really has been terrible - yet more possession and doing feck all with it. Sick of Mowbray.

[Tom]

Think we’ll get a goal as they sit back more but this just feels like Tony throwing things at it and hoping something works, no real plan or tactics.

[Bigdoggsteel]

Pathetic by Brereton.

When did he last have an extended run in his preferred position on the pitch? 

[Exiled_Rover]

Stonewall pen that, based off the one Toney got. 

[garnersfags]

Sure this has been said but this keeper has never before played in English football at any level. 

We have had zero shots on target. 

Their manager has been able to nullify us as an attacking threat. 

Happy days...

[superniko]

This pitch is as bad as what I saw at Chorley earlier. 
Elliott is a mile ahead of the rest.
 

Mowbray really is running out of excuses. 2nd week of January and we’re 11th in the league, out of one cup and heading out of the other at first attempt to a lower league team. 

[J*B]

This manager has no plan B. This is the second game in a row that we’ve ended up playing 4-2-4. That is insane.

That's what done him in at Celtic , won't happen here though cos no one is watching 

[davefarnworth]

Don't worry. Tony Slowbrain will take a cup defeat to convince the owners that 9th at the end of the season is progress. I agree with others that Covid has saved his hide. Do one, take your staff with you and V's you can do one too. Sloppy owners. And happy new year to everyone

Does he deserve one? Wherever he plays, his passing is poor and he looks as weak as I have seen at this level 

[AspRover]

Ben gets shoulder barged ref having none of it, ten seconds later one of their players gets shoulder barged and free kick given. Whether or not it's in the box shouldn't be relevant, a foul is a foul

[Hoochie Bloochie Mama]

I remember when Mogga played 5 at the back at home to Barnet in the Cup. He's a bit of a dick.

Excellent post , Happy New Year too.

[perthblue02]

Good double save from their keeper

[bluebruce]

Wow from their goalie there. Brilliant. Should be level.

[Stuart]

Brilliant saves. He had no right to make that second one. Poor play from Dack not to put that nowhere hear him.

[Proudtobeblue&white]

After all that, their keeper performs heroics.
