His lack of game intelligence and game management is a concern. People knocked Riis for that too but the fact is, Riis makes things happen regularly. He troubles defenders because he's unpredictable and quick. Ozzy looks pretty one dimensional and if we don't play exactly into his game then he's ineffective.

I think it’s unfair. Riis has come straight in with a partner (our best striker by a mile) and some creative talent behind him. Osmajic has played the loan role for the majority of the time chasing long punts in to the channels. To be fair part of today was doing the same.

The Bristol game was a fine example. He spent the whole first half running after shite passes and then second half we make 3 subs and made it easier having two up top

Lowe has had no answer to their half time changes. Utterly wank manager.

He never ever has.
How many times does the opposition come put with a different mindset and he just cannot counter act or react to it.
Time after time Teams come at us from the half time restart and our presumably half time talk is just soak up the pressure lads and take the sting out of the game, then its oh shit they're in the ascendancy and on the front foot and look by far the better Team, no lads thats not following the game plan.
Tell you what Ryan, why don't you take a leaf out of most of the teams we play, and us go at them and let them try to take the sting out of our game.
It just happens too many times.
I'm mildly annoyed when i thought at half time i was going to come off very rarely saying, 'i really enjoyed that'.
3-0 up at half time should be one of those games you win 4-1 or so.

Well I loved Billy, and would have him back here in a heartbeat. David Moyes and Billy Davies provided the best time for us fans in all those years.

He was a horrible little git who screwed it up for us against Leeds in the play offs because he had already agreed a lucrative deal with Derby…

He shouldn’t be allowed anywhere in Preston never mind back at PNE.

He did a job for us but greed got the better of him and he’s left a nasty stain wherever he’s been.

In reality he did nothing for us.
 
Ryan has said in his IFOLLOW interview, that Holmes might of done his meadal ligament in his knee when warming up, so is that a long term injury if so.

That’s your version. The one I heard was very different.
 
Lowe coming in for a lot of criticism but I think that McKenna should take a lot of the blame for their loss
Firstly they wouldn’t have lost if he had started with Moore even if he had not trained with them. It was crystal clear from his second half performance that his class would have stood out from the start
Secondly he didn’t learn from the Maidstone defeat that it was suicidal to have the GK playing such dangerously short balls out to his defenders. Lowe certain saw this and told his forwards to put pressure on the GK and defenders and it really paid off handsomely

if that was the case, then why didn't he tell them to carry on doing it in the second half if it was a tactic that he had had the foresight to see, and not just per appenchance and that's the way it just happened?

Great game of football, they are a decent team & came at us second half as expected. Criticism of Lowe is v harsh, the lads are playing for him.

Personally i think that constructive criticism of Lowe is justified as long as its not personally vitriolic.
Despite his 'Badges' its as plain as a nose on a face that he's not exactly a tactical genius.
However i agree with your last point, i see no evidence that the Lads are not playing for him.
