Mowbray press conference


Depends what exactly the clubs ambition is really,

If we are happy on just being a feeder club for other teams whilst we float around in the Championship for years on end then I guess Mowbray is the man for the job.

He was so highly thought of by his peers that Blackburn let him go,
His contract ran down and seemed a mutual decision. That aside, you don't think he has improved the playing side this year?
 
Just out of interest which managers in the championship are doing a much better job than TM with a squad and budget on a par with ours. ?

Middlesbrough maybe?

We are doing well at the moment. But think back to last season. Blackburn got as high as 2nd then went on an awful run and failed to even make play offs.
 
No what they were clear about was that january was going to be targeted signings who would come in an improve the team straight away. It is the shite that comes out now that reaffirms to a lot of fans that they just talk crap.
No. They have been clear about how the club would be run from day 1 of walking in the door mate. Just because you don't agree, doesn't mean its wrong.

This isn't Football Manager.
 
I don't understand when some muppet on here says "Where's the ambition" or "We have unambitious owners". Fuck!....If they were that uninterested or unambitious why have they put together a team that not only plays some of the best football I've seen Sunderland play in a decade, but are only 3 points off the playoffs?

Surely, It must just be luck that these young talented footballers have left big clubs and that the recruitment department are casting a net far and wide around the world for players who can share in the clubs ambition to be unambitious.

i swear to god we could be where Burnley are now and the same tossers on here would be having a go at the club for the lack of ambition or spending just like they are now....they never f#cking stop with the moaning.

Also, please show me a quote where this was ever said by the club.

Much better ? They're 4 points ahead hopefully 1 after Sunday Also they have a much bigger budget than we do man
 
We're not Man united. We just got promoted.
We are the biggest club in this league and tbh sick of that project bollox, what do you want to do as a football club, be a nursery club or stand & fight to start getting back to where we should be, yes the club is miles better than the charlatans ran it, but 5 yr olds could have ran us better than that lot.
We are Safc “let’s be having you”.
As someone once said.

You can name them marra -just look at Blackpool away half time posts !
Thankfully it seems some don’t actually attend games.
 
Blackburn let him go
Coventry fans didnt take to him
His hometown club sacked him
Failed to win anything in a two team league with Celtic.
Celtic was very early in his career - maybe he’s learned a thing or two since then.
He got Blackburn promoted and got them to a position where they were competing for promotion from the Championship. He came to the end of his contract, and both parties decided it was time for a change. The fact that the now “none dinosaur” manager is doing no better than Mowbray did, suggests he wasn’t doing a bad job.

Werent they below us much of the season ?

He got them promoted from League 1 then had four years mid table in the Championship until last season when they failed to get promoted after at one point being 2nd in table.

Middlesbrough have spent millions on their squad, and will have a much bigger budget than ours. No comparison imo.

Christ! I can't even face the match thread if I've not made the game.

Saying that, it's usually comedy good when you sift thru some of it.....wrists slit, hanging rope at the ready and some poor wives/girlfriends with panda eyes!
