The one positive I'm going to take from Mowbray's performance this season is the exposure of Waggott. As a club we needed a CEO that the fans can trust to make the tough decisions, friendships aside, for the good of the team. He isn't the man and the sooner both are gone the better. The issue we have is that both tick all of the boxes for our inept owners and one plans to make them a significant amount of money. Unfortunately I think we'll be protesting at Ewood again soon enough... Can anyone tell me another club on the planet where the manager essentially hired his CEO? There may be one but it seems extremely unusual to me (??), and if there is I'd like to know how that turned out. It's been a frustrating season but any fan who thought Mowbray was a good manager, even at the end of last season, or thinks that the recent form is not his fault, really does need a reality check.

Surely Bournemouth is his last game in charge.

It's refreshing to see managers like Allardyce still animated on the touchline, wanting to influence things or Arteta talking about their defeat, accepting responsibility specifically for not getting the best out of his players and vowing to improve. All things I wish we had in good or bad times. Ultimately it's just a bit of passion.

I find it strange that articles are coming out about summer plans, relegation this season is a real possibility in current form and Mowbray is being asked about budgets for next year by the local press and answering. Bizarre. The precedent was set before today's game. This club is a total shambles from top to bottom. Waggott Out!

Some journey we're having to endure.

It's clear Waggot and co have incentivised the owners with a completely different agenda. To the point that results and performances no longer matter. If there's somebody around offering to make them money, necessary footballing decisions i.e. firing Mowbray and finding a good manager will be totally neglected. There's something they like the sound of and it isn't promotion, trophies and a full Ewood Park.

Kaminski Player of the Year for me. Followed by Armstrong and then Holtby. Although the season did only span across 15 games.

A lot of fans think the passing and movement is excellent. It actually creates barely any chances, it's terrible. Talk about completely getting the wrong end of the stick with a philosophy. We're largely ineffective going forward, badly organised and can't defend - these issues should have cost a group of people their jobs 4 months ago, maybe even 12 months ago. The reality is when we're winning a game which is now very rare, we aren't capable of keeping the ball because the opposition isn't willing to let us. Some fans have been absolutely fooled.

That's what you say when the kids give the age up a game and lose. Absolutely tragic if you're hearing it at our level so often. Points and results seem to have been completely ignored all season. I miss they days when we would lose/ draw and a manager would say "we have to improve" or "we must turn the draws into wins". Under the current management and staff it's become very clear it will never be our day/ night/ week/ month/ year.

It's absolutely incredible that Mowbray is still our manager.

Really feel for Dack although signing that new contract was a master stroke.

How many years behind Brentford were Barnsley last season, 4 or 5? They survived by 1 point. 14 points behind Rovers. Mowbray would still have them down there that's a guarantee.

30', 70', 86', 91'. Dack's minutes over the past 4 games. Relatively eased in but didn't need 2 90s in 1 week. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, he had to start playing 90 minutes at some stage.

Can't wait for this season to be over.

Watched it again, I'm wrong, Dack goes to plant himself heavily which he does have a habit of doing. It's very similar to the Morsy incident, although with Raya slightly less to blame. Terribly unlucky for him.

Might be wrong but I think Dack's left foot "goes" in the turf which left him vulnerable just before the nudge from Raya. The pitch is partially to blame for me. Hoping it's not as bad as he fears.

If that's truly the case the next question has to be why? He's pointing our a major club failure. Why are we still 4 - 5 years behind Brentford, why hasn't this been spotted earlier and why as a club were we 9 - 10 years behind them previously? Surely the board can expedite the process or will we forever be 4 or 5 years behind Brentford? Brentford! Christ. It's absolute nonsense.

Very obvious from early season performances that Dolan should have been used more this season. Not solely relied upon but certainly given more than 15 minutes here and there.

Gallagher was doing the right thing in trying to clear the danger and many refs would have ignored that kind of contact since it still created a chance. The player didn't take it in his stride and get upended by a missed clearance. He stretched to get there, forced contact and went down like he'd broken his ankle, completely bought a penalty imo. The ref was conned.

Well that should get Tony a 4 year contract extension.

Can't be nice heading into Millwall away needing 3 points to save your job: Thankfully Tony doesn't have to worry about that.

I miss the days when you could sing "sacked in the morning!" and the manager actually did get sacked in the morning.

again this wouldn't have been allowed to happen at ANY other club in this league.

Every single team in the league is looking "sharper" than us and starting each half better regardless of their ability. Even Doncaster in the cup. Some quotes from Mowbray over the past 3 months sum things up pretty nicely. "Didn't do the basics" "Fell short today" "Played in the wrong positions" "Can't play this bad an expect to win any football match" "We didn't make the right decisions" "We lacked intent today" "We conceded really poor goals" "We need to be better". "We were way off where we can be". "We couldn't find a way through" "Lapses in concentration let us down". "Individuals didn't do their job". "We gave them a goal". "They didn't have to work for it". "Nobody reacted, the ball went in." "We made it hard for ourselves" Unfortunately these are the results he's producing game after game after game. I'm absolutely sick of it.

Preston, QPR, Barnsley and Forest were hugely important games. You could see that when looking ahead at the fixtures. I truly believe every other club in the league if they were in our position would have fired their manager for losing all of those.
