Did Mowbray self Sabotage to make a point?


Bald King

Midfield
I was under the impression, and probably wrongly, that speakman was making mowbray play one of the 4 strikers the club had invested in. As soon as we stopped playing dack and or jobe up front to accommodate a striker the shape and conversion rate for goals disappeared and the bad run began.
Then there were other odd selections like Defenders in midfield. So I was pleasantly surprised to see the team and shape yesterday with jobe up front. Suprise suprise we played well and looked better.


So why did tony keep rotating strikers if he didn't have to - was he prepared to sacrifice points and his job to make a point that the strikers weren't good enough?

Be a weird way to go about it like!
Sometimes how frustration plays out, especially when you know they have been looking at other managers anyway.
A few hundred thousand and not to have to work with KLD and Speakman. Can't imagine he tried to do poorly though, he loves the club. Just can't stand anyone above him
Erm. He loves boro mate.

Maybe he was picking the shit forwards to make some sort of point, and accidentally on purpose self-sabotaged, but I doubt it like.
