excellent signing,thought he`d gone to the middle east tbh,now just a left back required and we can offload the useless bell and his nearly as useless team mate williams

lol nice one

souness lost the plot by falling out with everyone and offering them all out,hard to imagine mowbray going beserk and pinning bennett to the dressing room wall☺️

though he treated the halfway line like an electric fence,he was a very solid defender

tony really should have captured patrick bauer last season,no nonsense defender who heads footballs all afternoon and is a leader,instead he messes around and bauer ends up at pne ffs,apart from the harrison reed treatment this is mowbrays biggest **** up imo

he won`t be sacked thats for sure,waggott and suhail would`nt sack him if he took us to the conference,the only way the mowbray regime is ending is if tony decides he`s had enough of the management game and negotiates a pay off,as much as i have contempt for his management he is an honest and nice man and if he does go i wish him well,very likeable chap is mowbray

are we fit enough?,it looked like we were running through treacle after the hour,happened a lot last season as well,we were overpowered and outrun numerous times in the second half,imo there are a lot of problems with this squad,unbalanced,unfit and the whole ethos is on being average

if you score twice away from home then you should be getting a result,will tony change anything,will he ****,this shambles will go on for another season while we limp into the bottom half of the table

considering mowbray was a total animal as a defender he`s done some backtracking on the art of it

maybe the penny has finally dropped,at last?

get the fook in?

how long before lenihan,travis and armstrong,our only sellable assets and the three capable of putting up resistance get fed up and want away

does`nt apply in mowbray land!!

he did`nt do a walton did he???

ffs

mowbray had an epiphany!!!!!!!!

i thought he was a good signing last year,unfortunately he`s well past it and continually unfit i think

would have played wharton instead of williams,otherwise pretty much what we all expected

whatever the formation and selection,i think we`ll start brightly,look good but then fold when bournemouth get into their stride and put some pressure on,story of the mowbray regime innit

he`s not interested in even trying for the play offs,it`s to much hassle for him,all tony wants is a comfy existance till he`s ready to call it a day,quite content to have us sitting in mid table,half his playing staff have got the same idea,if the miracle did happen and we get promoted they`de all be looking for new clubs,it`s not in their interest is it,apart from dack,travis,lenihan and armstrong,the rest of them are devoid of any ambition,you can see it in their efforts on a match day,scared to get stuck in and battle

why the **** is everyone picking up decent free transfers apart from us?

he can`t be any worse than walton,that is impossible,i think he`ll be a shouting type of goalkeeper who berates everyone in the box,falls out with mowbray who then picks fisher for the next game,stating "kaminski is`nt ready,he needs to learn how we operate round here!!!!!!!!!!"fisher turns out to be an unmitigated disaster but keeps his place,so in turn we have walton replaced by a walton clone,but he`s a nice lad and thats all that matters

was the fag end of a once very good mackay side,injuries and ageing players caught up with us that season,the young players brought in from the youth team,collier,skinner and shepstone were never going to be good enough,if jack had`nt come along then i think we`de have been in serious trouble the following season,though mackay was a pretty good wheeler dealer,maybe he`d have snaffled a few bargains and rebuilt

there should be no debate about bell playing any games,he`s out of his depth at this level,how in the world the manager and coaching staff can`t see it is beyond comprehension

remember thinking at the time,where has all this money come from,has bill fox gone mad,(he was`nt known signing to many cheques on players!),little did we know jack was giving us some loose change from his wallet before he finally decided to buy the club
