Fan The Flames

Pathetic

After the golden weekend where we won and all the other results were the perfect combination to open up a path to the playoff zone.

Im a Full Member and my screen is dirty what time will one of the mods be around to give it a wipe, I will be out taking my daughter to her tennis lesson between 12 and 1, so any time after that please.

Doesn't mean people can't express an opinion on the events, it sound to me he acted like a ******.

My Gran is 98 and had a serious chest infection back in September and I went round to see her, she was coughing and spluttering and trying to speak as she beckoned me closer. She tried to get the words out and I tried to speak for her, do you want a drink, your inhaler, tablets, tissue, is it a big family secret you are trying to tell me, what is it Gran. She pulled me closer and whispered in my ear "no matter what division you are in you have to have a proper blend of experience and youthful exuberance and all the tippy tappy is no good if you have not got enough wacky wacky” She better now and back on twenty bennies a day and for what its worth she thinks the relegation battle will go down to the last day

Abso****inglutely.

Beattie 5 goals in 7 games, not bad. Should we buy him back.

In response to your post, talent was in the squad but Lowe choose to not play them because he believed we would walked the league with our kids, the finances was a ploy to use the kids. We were quite often relegation candidates under Lowe before he left and since he came back we are again. If we survive this season we can then categorically state that Lowes policy the first half of the season almost got us relegated. Lowe didn’t spend in Jan the relegation season, he didn’t plan properly to stay up. This is my own theory but I think Lowe wasn’t bothered that we went down, because (in this theory only, I have no evidence) he thought we would come straight back up. The way the contracts were written (which was his biggest mistake in my opinion) the parachute cash, full house to watch a promotion chasing side and the continued support of the sponsors and the club would not be any worse of cash wise. He had to add to the team to replace all those players that left. Our highest position was not 7th, life before the premiership remember. There is plenty of space in the top flight for medium size teams like the Saints and there is no reason why we could not have stayed there a lot longer. The reason we got relegated was because Lowe gambled that we had sufficient strength to stay up. He got it wrong and he was paid a decent wage to get it right. We needed to strengthen but Lowe was too prudent and it cost us a lot more money than it saved. We didn’t have a large overdraft because we sold players along the way, which is a legitimate way for a club our size to balance the books. It was not the super financial skills of Lowe that kept us going but the family silver ware; of which Lowe managed to maximise their value, which is credit to him. When we came down it was imho correct to throw money at it to go back up, but after the gamble failed and the family silver ware had run out the overdraft built up, it was not mismanagement. That’s how I see it, it’s not so cut and dry as Lowe period good non Lowe period bad. Also I’m not saying Lowe mismanaged the club he managed the club very averagely. But I find it hard to swallow that some people will forgive Lowe his gamble but slaughter the others for theirs and yet both of them almost pulled it of. But which failure has been more damaging, in my opinion that is Lowes.
