Plus I genuinely don't think Lenihan gets into the starting XI on merit when everyone is fit. 1 Quote
BigBar Posted November 6, 2021 Posted November 6, 2021 If Stoke or Huddersfield conceed (both 1 up at the minute) we will be in the playoff spot 😳 1 Quote
davulsukur Posted November 6, 2021 Posted November 6, 2021 Get in! Poveda finally showing something after a disappointing start. Quote

His form has been up and down. I would leave him at it. Ya, maybe Lenihan doesn't ,but I think it's close between him and Wharton currently. Ayala first choice Quote

Ayala has more quality but no pace and horrendous injury record. Everyone else miles off Lenihan. Our win % without him is really poor. On the game, just listening but shows just how unpredictable Mowbrays teams are. He's got his faults but honestly think there's only a 10% chance we'll get someone better when he leaves. Quote
perthblue02 Posted November 6, 2021 Posted November 6, 2021 12 mins + injury, pretty confident of at least a draw 2 Quote
Beanie01289 Posted November 6, 2021 Posted November 6, 2021 By the way can we put to bed any of the doubts over Buckley the lads very good 4 Quote

There's only a 10% chance we'll get someone better if you picked someone out of the Blackburn End. If you actually opened up the job to qualified applicants you'd be hard pressed not to improve on him. 4 Quote
RTM08 Posted November 6, 2021 Posted November 6, 2021 A decent performance following on from the other day and I'm sure the Tony and his supporters will use it in earnest but let's just keep this in perspective - it's (currently) a bottom half team. Let's not pretend it shows any change from the norm at all. We've always been decent at punching down under Tony, we just have no idea how to perform against teams around us. 3 Quote

oozy Posted November 6, 2021 Posted November 6, 2021 What a week. Cardiff's equaliser actually puts us back in the play-offs! Quote
moerpho Posted November 6, 2021 Posted November 6, 2021 I’m watching Sheffield United TV and these commentators seem close to total, utter despair and chronic depression. Don’t think SheffU will score and keep on praising Rovers. 1 Quote
SuperBrfc Posted November 6, 2021 Posted November 6, 2021 Brilliant! I was hoping Khadra and Poveda would step up for us at some stage and they have today. This will be a good three points for us, as long as we don't do anything silly in the remaining minutes, of course. Quote
yankfan Posted November 6, 2021 Posted November 6, 2021 7-0 drubbing aside, any of us would have gladly taken 6 points from this weeks 3 matches. 3 Quote
booth Posted November 6, 2021 Posted November 6, 2021 Just proves that whenever Mowbray is feeling the pressure he stops pissing about and gets a result. Be great if we had owners who put him under the kind of pressure a football manager would normally have. 2 Quote

CambridgeRover Posted November 6, 2021 Posted November 6, 2021 Buckley played so well today, shame he could not score 6 Quote

You tell yourself that, but you wait to see who Waggott and Venkys wheel out when the time comes. Quote
Mr. E Posted November 6, 2021 Posted November 6, 2021 How bad are the teams in this league it's hard to comprehend really. Could have been more today. Thank God we had what it takes to bounce back. I hope it doesn't ease pressure off Mowbray. 2 Quote
