i could conceive a reply but oit would be to demosntrate my view that your assumption could be flawed..Stumped
there was no decent argument to be had in response. would have been waffling bull crap for the sake of subjective argument.i could conceive a reply but oit would be to demosntrate my view that your assumption could be flawed..
but not that it defintiely is, and Im trying to be less pendantic on here
subjective is the key word...your reason for the assumoption is valid..there was no decent argument to be had in response. would have been waffling bull crap for the sake of subjective argument.
I agreesubjective is the key word...your reason for the assumoption is valid..
my reason for my assumption is also valid..
but as you say its all subjective so we dont need to take it further
We've had barely a striker all season , patched up defence for quite a bit also only one real out and out full back playing regularly. Mowbrays showed him how to manage in the championship.Our players are better. Give him time to mould
I just read that as total bollocks...sorrysubjective is the key word...your reason for the assumoption is valid..

And what happens if they finish above us? Say, next season? Will that be Neil showing Mowbray?We've had barely a striker all season , patched up defence for quite a bit also only one real out and out full back playing regularly. Mowbrays showed him how to manage in the championship.
I just read that as total bollocks...sorry
Did a fantastic short-term job to get us out of that God forsaken league and will always be grateful to him for that but in the medium to long run, Mowbray is a far better fit with what we're trying to do.
Sorry mate but that's a load of shit. We were on the beach after you lot beat us and our season appeared to be over. Yet Mowbray managed to haul us through some really difficult games and get us within spitting distance of the playoffs. Alex Neil is a bluffer mate.He'll be fine and so will we. Players on the beach now and the groundwork is being done behind the scenes for a very busy summer. This current run will probably help refocus a few minds in the recruitment department as to exactly what needs doing.
Good luck in your play off push.![]()

Are you expecting to bring in around 15 players this summer?Different situations though. We started off on a much lower bar after a poor start under O'Neill. We also have only 9 players under contract at the end of the season, and 3 of those aren't fancied by Neil so there are a lot of moving parts in the club at the moment.
Most managers are bluffers to be fair. It goes with the job.
If they finish top and we finish second nobody will careAnd what happens if they finish above us? Say, next season? Will that be Neil showing Mowbray?
Worse players.For those who rate him as better than Mowbray in particular, why is he doing so badly at Stoke?
Lotta truth in that mind. I always felt our failures in League 1 were through managerial incompetence rather than personnel.I don't actually think he's very good. He's probably decent but we give him a lot of praise for getting us out of league one. I reckon that's more down to the fact the previous managers were f***ing shit. I mean, look at the squad he had man. By the end we had Patterson, Roberts, Clarke, Stewart, Neil, batth, Evans, onien, pritchard. All of these have proven themselves perfectly capable of playing at the upper end of the championship. Wright as well, easily a top L1 player. I think what time has shown is that we had the kind of side that should have walked league one. The fact they didn't is more a negative reflection on previous managers, rather than a sign that the one who finally did it was anything more than decent
This. I don't think Mowbray's got that in him.I think they’re really similar. I think Mowbray plays better “looking” stuff (probably through it being all we can do, so it’s drilled in) but I really admired Neil’s ability to pick and choose a team to beat the opposition on the day.
Tbh I’d back Neil to beat Mowbray in a hypothetical play off final due to that
To be fair, the previous managers didn't have that squad.Yet he managed to do what three other managers failed to do before him and get us out of League 1.
Not to mention he inflicted our biggest ever defeat at the SoL just weeks ago
They were 1 point behind us when he was appointed, and they'd only played about 5 games. Nobody was a relegation candidate at that point. They were 17th in the league when he was appointed, and they're 16th now...Got them from relegation candidates out of trouble with a shite team. If they have cash to spend they’ll be playoff contenders next season imo.
Given what you’re saying re only having nine players under contract come the season’s end, it will be interesting to see who you bring in assuming that Neil wants to be his own man regarding recruitment, then we’ll see the fruits of his fancies next season.Different situations though. We started off on a much lower bar after a poor start under O'Neill. We also have only 9 players under contract at the end of the season, and 3 of those aren't fancied by Neil so there are a lot of moving parts in the club at the moment.
