There's no guarantee that anyone will do a good job elsewhere. However if they've been sucsessful elsewhere it leads me to believe they'd have been so at Saints.Had SAF gone to Newcastle instead of Man U, would he have had the same sucsess, proberly not, although it's inconceivable Newcastle wouldn't be better off then they are now. Being in Preston's postion now as opposed to Everton's, Moyes is exactly the type of Manager we need (that's the Moyes at Preston). We had someone similar in Nigel Pearson (in my opinion), and Lowe let him go. There's no guarantee that Pearson will become a Moyes, and do a good job for someone in the Premier League, however there's more chance of him doing it than Wotte.........

I can not see that sort of support (Pompey Post) whilst Lowe is at the helm. The spirit was alive and well for last season's Sheff Utd game, despite a god awful season. Supporters were united, together and got behind the team all game. Lowe destroyed that stright away. I can not see it returning with, him, Wilde, and the people propping him up, still at the Club..........

The longer Lowe stays, the more unluckier we seem to get.

I heard it as well. Our only slim chance of staying up is if Saga goes on the type of scoring run he had 2 years ago, he's not going to be able to do that from the bench.

Bloody supporters have cost us another 3 points again...........

Some of ours wouldn't get in the local park side nowadays, whether they wanted to play or not.

Didn't Crouch work for nothing last season? If so, this proves there are people who'll put the Club and it's financial problems ahead of personal gain.

Did Crouch get any severance pay when he left?

CN had the hardest job going replacing Lawrie. Not only had we massively overacheived and signed players beyond our wildest dreams, but the people running the Club were never going to back him as they did Lawrie. This may sound corny, but I always thought of CN as like George Harrison in the Beatles, with Lawrie and Ted as Lennon and Macartney. Looking back Harrison wrote some great songs, however he suffered in comparison to the other two. CN was always going to be put in the shade, following the great men, however take his record against the others that followed and it's pretty good.

He didn't go on holiday during the season either.

From memory I'm sure all PLC Clubs have to inform the stock market of changes in major positions at the Club. I'm sure Clubs have waited until the stock Markets open to announce Managers have gone in the past.

I agree, the line was always "he OFFERED to pay himself". Did anyone see confirmation he did pay it?

There isn't another Chairman in the top 2 divisions who would have appointed JP, let alone kept him on after his performance so far.

I dont believe Coventry are in a bigger mess than us, in fact I find it a bit strange that anyone could think they are..........

Thanks, however there's one question perhaps you could answer. Leaving admin without a CVA carries a 15 point additional penalty from the League. As you say Football League rules state all Football creditors need to be paid in full, to stop teams signing/paying players they cant afford. My understand is that this is the aspect that the IR object to, and hense their stance on CVA's connected to football Clubs. Would it be possible to pay all football creditors off in full and the IR. Would this solution mean the Revenue would drop their opposition to a CVA, and therefore we would avoid the points deduction.

Or SCW's What about Pulis? Forecast?

If it's down to money,there's rumours that Watford are in severe financial difficulties. Perhaps they thought these would be made worse by another relegation, and are therefore carefully spending a little bit extra on players that'll improve their situation. This is the sort of approach we took at the end of last season, with Wright,Lucketti and Perry. Now we're a bit more "progressive" and "visonary", we take an altogether different approach.......

Be fair, the guy said if he COULD make a profit in League 1, he would rather that than a loss in this league. The point is, Lowe is not bothered by anything but money, the sooner people realise this the better.

Would Keegan have signed for Lowe? Has Lowe got the personality and man mangement skills to attract the very best? Can Lowe sell his football vision to world class footballers, and be able to attract them to the club?

That's right Lowe, blame Lawrie for the Club being skint. It's beyond belief, Lawrie's to blame and not our Football Chairman or PLC Chairman.

"Total football"

According to todays Telegraph Surman is only going on loan.

The fanbase was pretty much united in wanting to keep Nigel Pearson, and look where that got us.

By Wilde?

Hang on a minute, she is married to Lowe.She must have some sort of personality disorder........
