Torres Posted 19 June, 2009 Share Posted 19 June, 2009 Bye Mark, thanks for the efforts. Yes he was retarded to pick Ryan Smith, but overall he had a ridiculously tough job, as did Jan, but they both worked hard for us and wanted to succeed. Good luck to both. Indeed.

Chap in the Chapel Posted 19 June, 2009 Share Posted 19 June, 2009 If true, then good luck to him. Nowhere near good enough a manager for Saints, but his dignity and professionalism in recent weeks have shown him in a good light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintRobbie Posted 19 June, 2009 Share Posted 19 June, 2009 Bye Mark, thanks for the efforts. Yes he was retarded to pick Ryan Smith, but overall he had a ridiculously tough job and did it badly relegating us to the lowest position for 49 years, as did Jan, but they both worked hard for us and wanted to succeed. Good luck to both. Just finished the sentence for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpine_saint Posted 19 June, 2009 Share Posted 19 June, 2009 Wrong man, wrong time.... Feel a bit sorry for him. Lowe talked to him years ago, but bottled giving him the hot seat last year, just like he bottled bringing Hoddle back. Amazing how bullies can be such cowards.

Saint Martini Posted 19 June, 2009 Author Share Posted 19 June, 2009 dont we have a thread on this already? I started a thread on him negotiating/ being in the running for the job a few days ago but I thought it was worth starting a new thread now that he has signed for them. I never really liked the guy to be honest but he has always presented himself and the club well. His team did put in a few questionable performances but with all the turmoil surrounding the club at that time there were quite some mitigating circumstances. Good luck to him in his new job.

Have we sunk so Lowe, that he is now considered a good Manager . Yes, he didn't manage to keep us up, so we ought to hate him now and hope the future goes very badly for him. Fancy wishing him good luck! Proper saints fans should be unpleasant and as a wise poster said earlier, as graceless as possible. We ought to manage to be more unpleasant than pompey fans at least. I for one hope he stubs his toe very badly for making some unsuccessful team choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Bates Posted 19 June, 2009 Share Posted 19 June, 2009 (edited) 'lezers' Rotterdam-mark wotte is again coach of the Egyptian ismaily. Also Henk of STEE was a long time in the race for coach of the topclub. The last season wotte was employed in the English Southampton. Friday club which makes the departure of the oefenmeester known. It is reported that Kevin one in the picture for performing the duties of wotte about to take. wotte previously worked as manager of ismaily. Mid-2006 he ended with the club as second in the Egyptian club competition. Long appeared to Henk of STEE manager would be of ismaily. The oefenmeester soon after the first interview with the opinion by wotte club, which are not also a candidate to be told. rather surprisingly, STEE wotte last week that also appeared in the race for the vacant post.

No, but he did a thankless job in impossible circumstances and at the very least he has maintained some dignity for himself and the club throughout our darkest days. So for that I thank him for his efforts and wish him the very best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smirking_Saint Posted 19 June, 2009 Share Posted 19 June, 2009 All the best Mark, cheers for giving a hopeless situation the best of attempts. Wish you well in the future. TBF, he was professional, dignified and stayed until the very end, a lesser man would have jumped ship as soon as the season ended. Now lets move on to the future.

Charlie Wayman Posted 19 June, 2009 Share Posted 19 June, 2009 Let's be fair, it cannot have been easy managing for success with no money and a bunch of lazy Rrsoles cluttering up the training ground.
