Stoke (h) Saturday 16th Jan

Officials are bloody awful

[jim mk2]

Good news....Gallagher might not be able to carry on

[benhben]

Honestly think another relegation wouldn't even get Mowbray to leave. It's no less corrupt that when Kean was here with his agent running the show.  

Hard to care anymore.

I wonder what actually needs to happen for Mowbray to go

Perhaps we could consider impeaching him?

We don't play two upfront , that's where we are at 

We’re playing 4-2-2-2 now. Tony’s had two full weeks to come up with this tactical masterclass.

As @New Jeru mentioned Birmingham had a pen against us turned down which could easily have been given - we then went and scored straight afterwards. I know we've had some bad luck with Brereton not getting a couple of pens, but at the same time he has a reputation for going down easy and unfortunately that comes back to bite you in the end.

We can still win this by virtue of the league and the teams in it being poor. We have enough in the ranks for a moment or two of class to dig us out of a hole. I just hate how our team seems to retract into their shells the first moment something like this goes against us. 

That's as no way a penalty. 

We are playing awfully. Something is very wrong.

Please please get rid of mowbray

I’m at a huge loss as to how anyone can defend Mowbray and believe he should continue in his role.

Interesting that Mowbray made two subs at HT, though. He very rarely makes any changes at HT - a sign of some pressure?

lets invade ewood with pitchforks!!

[jim mk2]

Have we had one attack this half? Which is the home team?

Mowbray's picking up his (considerable) wages under false pretences. 

[TheRoversReturn]

This just gets worse and worse...

To work on the pitch???

I'd be embarrassed if I was Lenihan. An 18 year old who doesn't know the name of half his teammates has completely outshone him.

Both pundits on Quest thought it was a pen tbf. You see them given.

Still, either way I think we can both agree that we aren't where we are due to bad officiating. That's just the cherry on top.

If I could use one ,PC, word to describe us now, under Mowbray, I would have to say DISJOINTED. So bloody disjointed. 

[Miker]

8 points away from the playoff spots as it stands. Season well and truly over if we fail to win.

[West Yorks Rover]

When the BBC reporter says your team has been very poor, they must have been poor.

Their guys aren't usually so blatant.

[jim mk2]

Stoke so much better. More likely to be 2-0 than us equalise

We're at the stage where every reasonably intelligent Rovers fan wants Mowbay to go.

Being a Mowbray supporter and Rovers supporter is mutually exclusive by now.

I think we all know deep down it's already over. We haven't performed well for months now. This isn't a team with a hope in hell of reaching the playoffs.

I didn't see the highlights on quest, but I would take what pundits say with a pinch of salt. Nobody wants to rock the boat or be controversial. It didn't look a penalty to me.i just think today's decision was one you would expect them to get right. There was nothing ambiguous about it

100% we aren't where we are because of officiating
