2 wins in 22 games is pathetic and still the owners didn't act by sacking him. He walked away. Believe that fans were loud in their shouting for him to be sack/leave who nexts? dunno but I guess their owners didn't have a plan so they will be panicking and relying on their advisors suggestions. I expect Richard Beale to get the job for 3 games. He is I think their under 18's manager

Really enjoyed watching Tomlinson and Hardcastle last night. Ward shows his experience. I would Tomlinson in the match day squad now.

Thats your opinion not mine. We will see and judge him on signings in the summer. You arent interested in the team on the pitch. I am.

I think he will be here next season. Him and Senior have a big job ahead now

Didnt realised they were playing otherwise I would have gone. Instead got Forest and Wolves away tickets

So far so good. Team set up to a proper gameplan. Structure is better than most managers we had. 9 points from 5 games has been good. His comments have been honest, simple and straight to the point.. Plus the fans at Ewood Park are right behind Mowbray. Sing his name during the game

If you say so.

No reaction from me. Just think agent talk just be a different thread to the Tony Mowbray one. I'm very relax chill out person. Had a very good positive and productive day.

No the Barnes link never went away but at least we didnt sign him. Did Senior block it? Most likely. Didnt know about Sam Rush but he appointed by Mel Morris.

Smith was a loan deal wasn't before Liverpool sold him to Bournemouth so that's fall through. Powell and Barnes were linked and I think Barnes was here to sign But it never happened. Senior probably block it With all fairness Nyambe has been playing well. he been getting better game by game. Who is the Derby director? and Have you seen Olsson paperwork for yourself?

we secure our top rating last summer http://www.rovers.co.uk/news/article/2016-17/blackburn-rovers-academy-category-1-status-3201159.aspx isn't this rating for 3 years long?

9 points from 5 games from Mowbray is a massive improvement compare to where we would have been under Coyle. Probably on the same points as Wigan.

Thanks Dunnfc for coming on here and posting it instead of little hints like Jal does. Can I asked when you said "That's why some of the youth were on obscene contracts." have these players moved on since or still here?

What has he got to do with Tony Mowbray and this thread? Set up an Agent thread and discuss him there Tbh, I really couldnt care about Simon Conning. You are obsess about agents. Thats why I think you are football agent or work for a sport agency Jal out!!! All that matters is staying up this season.

What has Simon Conning got to do the Mowbray thread? If you want to talk agents then start a thread about it I felt that Steele in the 3 league games Ive seen since Mowbray took over he looks better. Under Coyle felt Steele went massive backwards.

I've said all season long we need a new keeper and it should have been one of the most important areas to strength last summer

How much did Mowbray spend compare to Karanka? Plus wasnt Gibson(Boro owner) making cutbacks after the very expensive Gordon Strachan spend a forture and got nowhere? Before we start thinking of the summer transfer window and next season we must be focusing on staying up THIS season. On the keeper issue Steele looks better and more confident. Still think Raya needs some good game time here. Mowbray hasnt bought in a GK coach yet. So he needs to bring one in the summer. Maybe he is waiting for Dean Kiely or someone else employed. If Pardew get the Norwich job then I can see Kiely leaving cos Pardew always want Andy Woodman as Gk coach at his previous clubs(last 2 at least)

I did address saying We have to deal with who we got in that role. If Senior does a good job I will say so. If he does poor I will say so. Ive never say everything in the garden is rosy have I? I said lets focus on staying up this season..very impressed by Mowbray so far.

Are you the wind up or something? Cant believe we are still going on about a tie for 5 days. Its Black and Blue in all honest who really cares!!! Maybe his tie colour mattets more than win or picking points up???

The DoF model does work in English football. Look at Southampton for example. This model works in Europe. I think Mowbray and Senior will work together in bringing in signings this summer. But like Ive said many times signings must fit the style of play we will used. I'm happy with the points total so far. Its more than we would have got under Coyle tbh.

Yes it is wrong way to run a club but its Venkys way and that what we have. I agree with the Director of football/head coach model. Think it does work if used right. Lets just focus on staying up and supporting the players and Mowbray this season. Whether we have a worse squad next season we will see in the summer. I personally think we have too much deadwood in the squad like Greer, Brown, Lowe, Stokes. We need good signings in the summer that fit into Mowbray's style of playing and tactics. Last summer Coyle didnt have a proper plan or a clue

Cheston wont be in charge of the football operations side. He deal with the finances side of the club but very doubt he will be setting budgets cos all that will be decide by the owners. He will go through Pasha who then talks to Balaji. So he isnt number 1 but that is Pasha. Both Senior and Cheston both report to Pasha. Whether Senior speaks direct to Balaji I dont know but I think he does cos he must have been pushing for Coyle sacking for weeks

Thanks for the link there AllRoverAsia. But I dont believe he is in the loop at all. I said that Senior appears to running all football operations like his job title is.

I think Mowbray will bring through a few from the under 23's like Wharton, Hardcastle, Doyle and Rankin Costello. I would only offer new deals to Guthrie and Mahoney. I expect Wes Brown, Gordon Greer, Jason Lowe, Hope Akpan, Adam Henley all to leave I think we will sign Emnes on a permanent deal if we stay up. Knows Mowbray very well and he knows how to get him to play to his best. I would be looking to sign Gallagher or Hoban if we could. Expect Stokes to leave. Cheston said this? Is he in the loop? It appears that Senior is running the Football operations from start and end. Leaving Cheston and Slivester to deal with the admin side On the recruitment side, Senior will be charge of this but I think he and Mowbray will decide on a shortlist after the season has finish and Senior will do the deals. whilst Mowbray focus on the coaching side of the club and bring in one or 2 staff like a new fitness coach or gk coach.
