Do you blame him? Huge budget at City

This was when he replaced Sven, they weren’t the best in the land like they are now. They may have even had that Asian owner before the Arabs came in as well. Their team was no great shakes at all.

Sparky is the man for me....he'll be refreshed, hungry, he's naturally a winner and ambitious.

Above all, he can be trusted.

Trusted to walk out on us again like he did when City came calling?

Tony giving Bennett a run out against his old club, ah how nice of him 

Will never forget how Sherwood pushed that move through at Spurs, no captain acts like that. Give me Zidane any day! 😂 

Will get completely battered with that midfield 3, far too weak 

This reminds me of that nothing game at home to Newcastle in 1996 when Graham Fenton came off the bench to turn the game on it’s head and score a brace to ruin the Geordies chance at the title. If only we had a fatty Fenton on the bench!

We bossed the first half against them on their patch before the sending off so we’ve definitely got the players for it. I’m afraid the dismal performance is down to management and wrong setting up of the team.

Brereton worse diver than Neymar 

Kevin Davies reckons that just like Preston, we don’t have the squad to compete throughout the season. Bollocks look at our bench tonight and that’s without Armstrong and Holtby.

It’s going to be one of those where he makes 4 changes all on one go as we’re playing dreadful and are 1 or 2 down 

Our two slowest players both playing as the wingbacks 😂 

He’s shoehorned Bennett in. Just look at the bench and who he’s chosen him ahead of. Sack the complete and utter numpty now!

Definitely a must win tomorrow then! Jees how many times have we said that. 100% game over if we lose... I reckon it will be a draw lol

Sky bigging up Harvey Elliott for a good 10 minutes and Mowbray has him on the bench 😂

I've known Mowbray isn't an amazing manager since Doncaster at home second game of the league one season. 

Even when he was doing a good job it's always been at the back of my mind.

I mention it on here every now and again but it baffles me to this day.

He basically massively overreacted to the defeat at Southend and set up incredibly negatively with a team full of logical holes. Team that day was:

                                 Raya

Caddis     Nyambe     Ward     Mulgrew       Williams

                  Smallwood      Evans

Whittingham                                Bennett

                          Graham

His time was up when we lost 9 out of 11. games in the second half of 18/19.

 

OMG! WTF is with that team 😂 I’m probably quicker than the front 5 and haven’t done any exercise for years!

Birmingham look dire, 30 mins in at home to Derby and already 3 nil down! 
 

To be fair I was expecting their team to be stronger as well 

Bellamy was not even close to being on the same planet as Thierry Henry! put down the sauce ? 

No extra time tonight straight to pens!

So after refreshing this page practically all day this has ended up being a false dawn? frustrating 

Ashley Williams 

Reminds me of the 93/94 shirt, thumbs up from me!

Liking that shade of Blue! 

Cardiff away to Fulham Friday night and Derby at home to Brentford early Saturday. If both those results go our way and we pull a rabbit out of the hat against West Brom on Saturday... surely not!!??

Swansea sniffing about as well though!

Derby losing!
