If we don't win next weekend against Gillingham then he has to go.

I'm sure I'm not alone in saying this.

Oh Crikey!!! I've now just heard him saying that Marcus Tudgay is our biggest goal threat. That comment alone has left me seriously questioning his thought process!!

That was what the narrative the club sold to us at the time he joined. Falkirk fans were delighted to get rid of him

He's no worse than the idiot we have now.

Great, so we sack Mowbray, then what?

Who's next into the breach? The fundamental problem here is not the manager, it's the club itself - rather, what it has become.

Chris Coleman, anyone? Flopped superbly with us, but just led Wales to a Euro Semi-Final. I rest my case. Managing CCFC is more than a challenge, it's a futile exercise in mediocrity.

Yes because Coventry City had Gareth Bale, Aaron Ramsey and Ashley Williams at our disposal.

And what did Coleman do at club level, without Bale?

If your tactic is to get 11 players kicking the ball in the right direction you have my vote!

Oh come on get real, the issue is the owners just take a reality check on their performance

I'll ask again:

Why can the likes of Yeovil, Burton etc get promoted with a much lower budget than us, lower attendances and lower expectations and we can't?

The owners are not at fault as to why Mowbray failed to get us into the top 6 last season and they are not at fault as to why we are bottom of League One without a league win this season.

Mowbray is at fault. One more game: if we don't win it's time to him to go.

Did you not see the awful tactical decisions today? Let me guess, he had to bring Lamieries on for Gadzev because his hands were tied? He had to leave 1 midfielder on his own watching their players walk through?

Don't try and tell people they need a reality check, anybody with eyes could see that today and even Andy Turner has been saying all week how we have a far superior squad to theirs.

Still not entirely sure what formation we were trying to play in the second half. The players didn't seem to know either.

They appointed Mowbray, so the best you can say of them is they have judgement not in keeping with their aim of maximising the order seen elsewhere in the club, to attain on-pitch success.

So they are at fault, yes.

Jodi Jones centre midfield, Lamieries whereever, Tudgay between the strikers and midfielders and Sordell left wing.

We're bottom of the fucking table nearly a 5th of the season in, with a half decent squad.

The only person to blame for that is TM.

He needs to go. Now.

Off you pop, Anthony.

He's not turning this around, hasn't got the personality for it.

Who do we bring in though?

I don't think there's anyone out there much better than Mowbray and I can't see SISU stumping up a severance payment to TM and a compensation fee for an already employed manager.

Lets stick with him, I'm fed up of changing managers every 18 months and going round in circles.

He gets an easy ride because people are too angry shouting at SISU they don't notice the fact he hasn't got a clue either. Might be why they have kept him hear as it's a common trait.

There are 23 managers in League 1 at the minute better than Mowbray.

A decent lower league manager, not a flashy name. Somebody who can get the best out of a group of players and build a solid system around the players at his disposal.
