It looks like Mowbray is a fan of one up front, so I'd move Mulgrew into midfield with two midfield runners to do his running, similar to when Tugay was here. It would be like a beggar's Tugay. I would have said a poor man's Tugay but it is more than one level below that.

Ive seen no evidence that we are fitter. I still maintain Rovers are one of the few teams that cannot last 90 minutes. Evans, Bennett, Whittingham, Graham, Conwy and Dack are clear examples of the team running out of steam after an hour. It is the reason why we drop further and further back...

Consistent comes from playing the same XI week in week out, not from chopping and changing from one game to the next.

The powers that be in the UK, or as it's known in the world...Sky, would prefer the fans of Lancashire to follow Man U, Man C, Liverpool. I'm not sure they are that bothered about Everton. For those in the east of the county there is dirty Leeds. They only want about a dozen clubs in the entire...

If Mowbray had been employed earlier chances are we'd have stayed up. The points per game ratio he got proved that but I agree he is a poor manager.

To be fair Bowyer had many faults, parachute payment squandering was not one of them. The money was spent before he got the gig. It is why he got the gig in the first place. The payments were wasted on the likes of Best, Murphy and Ethou then paying them off.

The lad should be at least on the bench, the energy he showed against Man Ure is what is lacking from our team

Only problem is that it takes 20 minutes for him to pass the ball losing any forward momentum. BTW it is only one pass in 3 that goes forward, the other 2 tend to go sideways. How many games have we won with him in the side compared to when he isn't?

When Mowbray came in he said that the defence needs organising. Guess what 10 months down the line and the defence still needs organising. Lets not forget that this is a manager that took a team in similar circumstances to Rovers from the top of this division to the bottom before quitting. I...

Just about to set off and I'm nervous. Going for 1-1.

Tonight is the night that the re-arranged game is on and yet so far no mention on here. It will be interesting to see what the team will be. Chapman and Bennett out will be a huge blow.

Presuming that Bentley and Santa Cruz are there for their first stints at Rovers. In their second stints its fair to say they'd easily make a worst XI to play for Rovers.

Odd collection of highlights. No showing of Dack's misses or Grahams misplaced pass but shows a Wigan cross that lead to nothing. Lookinf at Bennett's first booking it was harsh but it was a silly tackle as he had no need to make it.

They took over Marsdens

Neither had I. A steak pie with dollop of mushy peas in the middle of it. Marsdens in Darwen used to make a mushy pea pie.
