Blackburn fans are up in arms and want Mowbray gone.
They also want Venus and Waggott gone amidst plans to sell off their training ground for housing and scrap their Cat 1 academy! Sound familiar!!??
They are calling then the "Coventry 3"
Massive questions around Mowbrays recruitment, particularly loans and his playing of players out of position.
Had two very young loans playing as back central two this evening who have apparently been struggling. Fans say team selection is like a literal lottery draw.
Just lost 5 in a row!..... fans are up in arms! ..... let's hope he's still in a job on Saturday morning! ....sounds dire what he's serving up on the pitch.
Lets hope they put Venus in charge

Players get rid of managers I would think their game with us could be decisive for Mowbray although selling off their training ground etc will surely be their owners doing who seem a strange bunch.

Best screenshot of the O'Hare penalty shout I can get. Still not convinced but TBF there was contact on his trailing leg so he didn't take three steps and fall over after a touch on the back like I thought.

You’ve got to fancy your chances of scoring in the far corner

And yep no pen as minimal contact but no booking cause he’s not dived to win the pen

Ref got the right call

For us JCH had only 8 goals

So what? Are you honestly trying to make an argument that he’s not have likely to scored more than biamou if he’d stayed - biamou has scored 7 league goals in L1 and L2

Whats constantly annoying is we can go toe to toe with the top teams. Let constantly gift goals.

So all the hard work is just gone.

Yes Walker and JCH are better than Biamou but youve made an unfair observation

Hardky as it shows their abilities to score unless you think elsewhere biamou would become a regular goal scorer - which he won’t

Load of hysteria here

Swansea are a good team. Efficient rather than spectacular

We did well enough overall. We did have reasonable chances and limited them to few opportunities

Sheaf had a good enough game so odd to see the critics fly at him

Unfortunately the game exposed weak points. The keeper is seriously below standard. Career stats don’t lie. He’s never been a regular at any club even at lower levels. There is a reason for that

Hyam continues to play and continues to be poor.

Biamou isnt at the level required

Walker clearly has to score every week to keep critics at bay but I wouldn’t worry too much if I was him. He’s much better than the alternatives and want be a 1 in 16 player

Given the opposition and the fact we are carrying players in key positions it wasn’t that bad
Good post.

Our fans are very strange characters, especially the Facebook ones. For me the first 11 has 2 players in it that aren't even close to the standard required, Biamou and Wilson, yet they are still absolutely adored. The social media hate last night seemed to be aimed at Sheaf (standard), Walker (becoming standard), McCallum and bizarrely Marosi who wasn't even playing.

Conclusion... most of our fanbase are absolute vegetables.

But you havent shown Biamous full career goals like you have done woth Walker and JCH which I believe that maybe you should have observed their goals for Cov but the difference is they are different sorts of players, Walker is a poacher/Fox in the box, Biamou is more of a partner who helps the other striker, JCH I have no clue what he was because we used to play him as a 9 which he clearly was not

Show me hard stats that prove biamou is a partner who helps the other striker

league goals
Clarke Harris 72
Walker - 53
Biamou - 12

that’s the observation

My point was more that the ones that defend Walker over and over again with really strange excuses are the same ones that scrutinise Max.

I'm not suggesting Max shouldn't be scrutinised, I'm just suggesting that there is a fuelled argument and vested interest in some playing him down and playing Walker up.

What strange excuses? He will score goals

He's not running around because he has been told to stay still.
His job is to score goals, not to battle for the ball.
That sitter was harder than it looked.

Etc etc.

Again, I'm not trying to say the two players are comparable, but the bias in some people is a bit silly because the same people then rip Max to bits. There isn't really any balance.

I mean I dont rip any unless one or both has a poor game

What sitters has Walker missed?
