Yeah the fucking cheeky Yorkshire bastards
For what? Making a mess of a league one promotion then building a league one relegation side with inept recruitment. Yes you are right I am truly thankful.
Lost 4 Centre halfs over the course of the season, Willis, Reda, Turner and Carrgil. I would say they were all pretty vital. Stokes was injured around February time and didn't play again properly until the end of last season. We also had Maddison out for 4 months after he made a major impact in the first few games. Maybe not the second half of the season but the injuries happened.
They don't get off Scott free do they? They get acknowledged for fucking up and not being up to it.
Turner was going to be recalled anyway. Cardiff played the Friday night and their centre back got injured, had turner come through the Saturday game unscathed he would have undoubtedly been recalled.
Can't you just accept that your beloved Tony royally ballsed up our best chance of promotion in years. He signed such high quality players as Henderson Hunt Ramage to name a few. He then sold Vincelot for what he claimed was beneficial to the team then signed nobody but a few loans and Sordell and Kwame Thomas. He spent a summer dithering trying to sign players who would never sign for us then left after 10 games without a win following on from the previous half season fiasco. He bought in Venus as his recruitment manager and look what happened there. How many permanent signings did Mowbray/Venus actually make that would be described as successful with the exception of Jones?
The fact is that it indicates the luck or lack of it that season that 4 centre halves, 5 if you count Stokes who did play centre half around Christmas time, were injured. Mowbray mentions this in the interview and it's true.
thats not what i said at all is it? in fact my first sentence was no doubt he messed up.
Sure I remember the figure of £700.000 being bandied about on here,
Im not lauding Jones after 1 good game. I am criticising Mowbray for having about 30 games of going from top 3 in League One to relegation zone with a fair worse squad. You have still failed to answer my question from my last post regarding the permanent signings he made that were successful too. I also mentioned Venus as a massive failure too so does this also make me a moron?
So Mowbray was good because he signed one player for a small amount that has had 1 good game? Explain what else he did that was so amazing please im dying to know. The 8th place finish isn't something to be proud of as we spent most of the season in the top 3/4. You cant find any other good things he did so are clinging to this one thing to fuel your obsession.
He get's the same ridicule as anyone else who had the same record as he did in 2016. You however then defend him saying "we still came 8th" or whatever it was. That is no consolation unfortunately
