Are we attacking ourselves?

    It's 15% of the season, if we had continued with Mowbrays PPG rate we would be in the bottom half, instead we are in the playoff places. We are two places and two points better off than at this stage last season.

    Yeah exactly, Mowbray had us 6th when he was sacked? Whats actually changed with our lineups etc since hes gone to show that he was picking the wrong team and tactics?
    Weve had a couple of good back to back wins against Leeds and WBA followed by 2 defeats in games we should have won.

    You cant tell me we are now all of a sudden a better team now Mogga has gone.

    We were 9th when he was sacked, 3 points outside the playoffs.

    Really, my bad then i thought we were 6th for some reason. Either way it doesnt change my opinion on how this past 6 months feels for me

    Nothing wrong with having an opinion. If everyone had the same one it would be a boring place.

    I would have kept Mowbray as well btw

    he doesn’t need to speak English tho it’s football not a conference. I’m happy with how things are going and I’m sure we will make a good go of these last 20 games. We’ve been very very unlucky with injuries last season and this.

    If he'd have lost the dressing room it would make sense. The players were reported as been gutted at hearing hed been sacked. It just didnt make sense at all unless Pep was available, not Beale ffs

    It shouldnt no but its obviously had an effect on the lad because its been said in press conferences and even by himself in an interview that hes finding it hard with the language barrier.

    Got to get behind Beale mate, here's here and been picked as the man for the job. He's meant to be a brilliant coach, needs time before he can properly be judged

    No mate, i feel for the lad which echoes what ive already said about bringing a striker in that isnt a kid. I was just responding to being told Rusyn is 23 and not an inexperienced kid.

    he does have experience tho quite a lot of it. He will score goals imo just needs the service which he wasn’t getting I also think hemir will be decent too but the way Mowbray treat him was nothing short of shocking imo.

    Rusyn's wife and family are with him now according to a few on rtg. That will be a great boost for him

    Shocking in what way?
    Hemir spends most of the time ive seen him wandering around looking disinterested. He hardly stood out in the U23 games he played aswell in matches he should have been dominating and making himself look superior for that level. He hardly done anything to warrant being picked by Mowbray. Id have him loaned out to league 1 asap if i had my way

    I was referring to Twitter and Facebook etc. I see this as a forum where we discuss things with fellow fans and share opinions

    the way he was playing all pre season scoring goals playing well then starts first game of the season and because he missed a couple chances gets hauled off and never seen again.
    The comments in the media saying he wants to give him a slap etc etc. he’s a young kid that’s moved country he didn’t deserve or need to be slagged off by the manager, that’s not good for anybody’s confidence let alone a kid.

    I’ll leave it at that tho mate it’s been done to death I’m happy he’s gone and we move on hopefully keep on improving year on year like we have been since kld took over.
