I actually despise him. I'm glad he's getting better but as a manager he was despicable 

Despicable? Get a grip.

Mowbray takes some of the blame.  He wasted 5 years of feeding bullshit about building slowly so he could line his pockets whilst wasting millions.  Bowyer u could forgive because he wasn't manager material at least he produced a few gems. Jdt was in this job with the best intentions about getting rovers promoted.  Lambert was sold a lie. Then there was the rest 

Nothing makes more sense for a man intent on lining his pockets (like all managers) than purposely avoiding a considerable pay rise, bonus and likely new contract upon promotion. 

The blame is solely with the owners.

It’s not a top 6 squad, but bearing in mind we started the game with Sonny and Travis and finished it without Brittain and Batth (Arguably our best 4 players this season) we were the better team tonight. We had no luck in front of goal, whatsoever and they did.

We haven’t been played off the park tonight, far from it.

Its not down to luck that we didnt put the chances away. Its a lack of quality due to a lack of investment. Our attack that started has 6 goals between 4 players all season.

We havent scored in 5 of our last 8 league games.

The owners get a big portion of the blame but Mowbray knew he wasn't under pressure and milked it

On a night when we lose and our small fragile squad continues to disintegrate, you choose to focus partially on someone who managed us seasons ago, describing him as "despicable" and justifying it with illogical nonsense. The owners deserve all of the blame.

I was replying to someone who mentioned previous managers. I agree venkys take the majority of the blame but Mowbray set us back with his lack of desire to push on

What does that even mean? In his last season we sold a player he signed for £3m for £15m, they didnt reinvest anything, they wouldnt give him a reasonable budget in January or even allow him to trade to get a budget, and then we ran out of steam.

And then that lack of funding has continued since.

He left us in a better position than he took us over in. Im sure he did want promotion and a pay rise, he just wasnt capable.

I’m sorry JRC is one of the worst footballers I’ve ever seen play for us. He is absolutely fucking awful. Can’t run, can’t pass, can’t shoot, can’t defend.  

It's not what I was getting at. I was replying to another post about Forshaw being a JE choice. So just making the point that there were options.
