It's weird that everybody assumes that the club did not offer him a contract but it may well be that he had requested this kind of contract so he could leave at the drop of a hat. He did say previously that he was very happy with the arrangement. Don't think anybody is privy to those conversations but Speakman did say he was offered and signed a new deal 4 weeks ago and then again when the Stoke interest came along. Don't know the amounts but he was very quick to accept which either means he was unhappy at the club or has been putting himself in the shop window waiting for somebody to one along. His career had stalled after being relegated from premiership but he got a lot of exposure working at Sland and it has earned him a contract at Stoke which he seems to want. All being all I think it is a backward step and I hope the club make the right appointment now no short termism or caretakers or any of that crap just go for who you want
I honestly don’t think Mowbray being there today is that significant tbh, he has been at a few of our games this season supposedly, and just because he was there today people are lumping it on him
Where is that coming from? I suppose he's established Blackburn at the top half of the league while working well with Stuart Harvey.
How is he shocking? We are looking to consolidate in this league with a group of younger players. He did exactly this at Blackburn working alongside Stuart Harvey. He's not my choice, but ****ing hell you'd think we are looking for automatic promotion by the way some of our lot are going on.
Not averse to Mowbray.need to steady the ship and bring the younger lads through to consolidate this season.
Mowbray had a young squad at Blackburn last season and did well, not the most exciting appointment but would be solid
No way has Speakman found his guy in 24 hours. Man ****ing loves a process Will probably be interviewing Mobray amongst others Just hope one he interviews is El Loco
