  1. I was shouting for Mowbray to leave, was similarly lectured by anothet fan that Mowbray is great etc
  2. Mowbray vs Kean? Same bullshit spouters
  3. "Should I like a post of my old mate celebrating the heaviest defeat of my club in its history given then have been supporting me through all my injury problems? Yep sounds good to me." I know footballers aren't the smartest but really seems a few of our lot (past and present) are really scraping the barrel.
  4. What you meant to say was "Lenihan was a poor midfielder prior to Mowbray coming in, now he is a poor defender."
  5. Preston beat Bournemouth away. They must have not got the memo Bournemouth are a premier league team
  6. VENKYS OUT WAGGOT OUT MOWBRAY OUT What else is left to say
  7. Worst home defeat in the history in the club and people still cant work it out ... Maybe we deserve this nightmare
  8. You have no idea Some older woman came up to me to tell me "he only had 6 fit players on monday, he is doing a good job," because i was loudly slagging off Mowbray they are simply not in reality
  9. Setting the Scene Wednesday’s match sees Blackburn facing off against one of the championship’s form teams in Fulham, who have won the last four on the bounce. This includes their latest match, a 3-0 victory over fellow favourite West Brom. However, Rovers also come into the game with two recent victories against Derby and Reading, so we should be in with a chance. With Fulham in 2nd and Blackburn in 7th, the match is great opportunity for us to stake a claim for the playoff positions or for Fulham to cement their status as one of the favourites to go up. The Opposition Having been relegated from the Premiership in 18th position, by a margin of 9 points, Fulham are hoping to return to the promised land at the first attempt. At the end of the season, manager Scott Parker left the club to take up the manager position at fellow Championship favourite Bournemouth. In his place, Fulham brought in Marco Silva, the former Hull City and Watford manager. In the summer, and unlike some relegated clubs, there was not a large exodus of players and in fact Fulham spent ~£12.5 million on bringing in Harry Wilson from Liverpool to add to their attacking options. With all the talent at the club, Fulham were predicted to be towards the top of the Championship. 10 wins in their first 15 games and boasting the league’s highest scoring attack, they are looking likely to fulfil their aim at the first time of asking. Star Man Too good for the Championship (60 goals in 97 games) but perhaps not good enough for the premiership, Serbian striker Aleksandar Mitrović is the man to watch. Having a tremendous year (18 goals in 15 games), we will have to keep him quite to have any chance in obtaining the 3 points on Wednesday. However, just behind Mitrović in the scoring charts, one Ben Brereton-Diaz is having a career reborn (12 goals in 15 games) and let us hope his form continues. Player Connections Fans will be able to spot quite a few former Rovers in the current Fulham team: former loanees Tosin Adarabioyo (red card suspension) and Harrison Reed as well as Fulham captain Tom Cairney. Looking back over the last twenty years I will start off with my least favoured shared connection. Midfield morons Dickson Etuhu and Danny Murphy, and his reported £50k a week contract, enjoyed successful careers at Fulham before we were unfortunate enough to witness them at Ewood. Clinical finisher Andy Cole left Blackburn, after relations between him and manager Graeme Souness deteriorated, to enjoy a successful one year with Fulham. Former Rover Damien Duff enjoyed successful spells with both clubs, making over 100 appearances for each. Premier league winning centre half Ian Pearce finished his league career at Fulham before retiring to non-league football. Competitive Record The first time the two clubs played each other was in the 1920/1921 FA Cup in a 1-1 draw. Since then, Blackburn have played Fulham in 93 total competitive fixtures having won 38, drawn 25 and lost 30. The largest scoring game between the two was when we unfortunately lost to Fulham 7-2 on a Boxing day fixture in Division Two 1956. Our recent record against Fulham has been quite poor, winning none of the last four games, with our last win being a 3-0 victory at Ewood in 2016 with Ben Marshall, Shane Duffy and Danny Graham making up the scorers. Final Thought There is nothing quite so satisfying as a well hit volley Come on you blues!!
  10. After his goal Dolan cost us two by ignoring diaz at every chance
  11. 5 points out of 18 Mowbrays Death Spiral to give us all Halloween chills
  12. Seeing Johnsom and Clarksom makes me long for the days of Murphy and Ethuhu How pathetic
  13. Out thought by Robbins. After Coventry scored their second, Mowbray was walking around tapping his head. Out of ideas Send him back to Coventry
  14. Odd. Clarkson training with the starting 11 and not the rest of the bench. Is this common?
  15. I call them jerseys sometimes.
  16. Sack him, Just fucking sack him and the fucking rest Coventry Blackpool showing all you need in organisation and a proper manager to get results Wasted all the money on transfer, shit owners shit manager Get fucked Mowbray
  17. Dont know why Mowbray is angry, you made your bed lie in it
  18. Fingers crossed we make them pay for missing
  19. For the first time in Tony Mowbray's tenure as manager, Rovers have won a game while occupying a play-off spot in the Championship.
