mjmooney Posted January 4 VT Supporter Share Posted January 4 Quote "There's been a lot of change," Spooner told BBC Radio WM. "John [Eustace] going, Wayne coming in, Wayne going again. "But that's modern-day football. It happens at a lot of clubs. It's always the way. Some players like one manager. Some players don't like another". (BBC Sports app) Translation: The players liked Eustace, and didn't like Rooney. Sounds like it was indeed the players downing tools to get rid of him.

useless Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Mowbray close to being appointed. Did well at Sunderland, but before that other than getting West Brom promoted seemed a perennial midtable Championship manager to me, was strange that he left Sunderland, as it seemed at last he found a club that suited him. If nothing else I think he will probably keep them up this season, them getting relegated was always a long shot anyway, as squad isn't bad by Championship standards, just needed an half decent manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HongKongVillan Posted January 5 VT Supporter Share Posted January 5 All along I thought when people here mentioned Steve Spooner, I always had in mind that was just a cheap joke on them trying to get Steve Cooper, and landing on some nobody called Steve Spooner instead. Have no idea this Steve Spooner is actually real! Mowbray is to competent for their level if true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mowbray will consolidate and keep them up. They’ll probably sack him at the end of the season and get another “name” in. mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaJ100 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Mowbray's teams always play nice looking football but are ultimately not that great. If Rooney is to be believed and the players couldn't understand his 'advanced tactics' lol then the passing game isn't going to be understood either. Need some Bruce or Allardyce type character Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last half of his last game where you could tell he'd told them at half time that if they lost he was gone, you could visibly see the effort which I appreciated. Still lost though sadly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
