Is Lowe evolving?

Is Lowe evolving?

If you want to say the entire season is a write off, that's your prerogative, I doubt the club and players feel the same. And people say I'm a pessimist!

1 : I agreed that bringing him on late, on Saturday would have been a good choice- think that's the best way to use him right now.



2: If we get to a point where Best is good enough, I'll be the first to call for his inclusion. Wishing really hard doesn't change the facts though.

1 : So you agree with me ?

2: You just did.. Even if it was a bit part.

3: That " good choice " you endorsed couldn't happen if you got your way with his career and sent him down 3 divisions on loan.

I don't " want " to say anything but after witnessing everything so far, just where do you think we are realistically heading?

I did. I even agreed with Ernest.

I think his career would be better served if he was getting regular games in League 1 or 2- he's just not good enough to justify getting them here right now. If he's going to be sat on the bench here, then sure, 10 minutes at the end to hopefully get a chance at a set piece is probably the safest way to include him.

It's too early to say- we need to improve if we want to push the playoffs. If we get worse, then we could find ourselves slipping down the league at a very quick rate. It's still anywhere between 3rd and 23rd for me.

Well hedged.... 🙂........... 3rd my arse.....I'm extremely confident that unless Lowe changes his outlook / approach /mindset and tactics then we'll end up mid table which is unfortunate because I believe we now have players that could do better. That early spurt may prove to be a godsend.

I don't and I doubt he would either.

Looks like we're sinking, but there's no guarantee it stops at midtable. Equally, who knows if the rot can be stopped with an actual strike partnership. Law of averages suggests boring midtable, but counting chickens seems foolish.

Bet he would. 90 minutes, week in week out, against proper players is what he needs.

Bet he wouldn't....... The chance of coming off the bench ( or even starting when we are short ) and trying to prove yourself at a Championship club would be less acceptable to him?... Don't be daft.

Would you prefer 90 mins lower down if you were him? I bloody wouldn't, I'd much rather stay in the fold and make a name for myself.
 
Extending the contracts of the likes of Brady, Ledson, and Woodburn blocks the pathways of the likes of Best, Leigh, and Mawene.

If we lost those three senior players (at a saving of about ÂŁ30k a week, i'd guess) would we be any worse off?

Oh aye, the last month has been so good for his development, as third choice wingback.

I bet he'd be much happier playing multiple full games than hoping Lowe tosses him some pity minutes.

Just because Lowe doesn't know his arse from his elbow doesn't mean that you have to join in.

Well we at least saw tonight the world dosen't end playing a back 4 against one of the better teams in the division.

Let's see more of that home and away rather than safety first all the time.

Definitely. Back 4, Millar on the wing, a run of starts for Osmajic. We can pick up just as many points being more positive with team selections, as we can with 3 (make that 5) at the back.
 
Was pleasantly surprised with tonight.

If a team that has that amount of money and talent in it needs a scabby goal scored in the 7th minute of 6 added on AND an absolute knob-jockey of a referee to get a draw out of us, then that's a good progression.

Millar is the first player we've had in a long time who can get people out of their seats this frequently.
 
Absolutely nailed his tactics tonight and nailed the Osmaijic sub

But it’s another game where we’ve taken the lead and again gone 10 men behind the ball. Is that what we’re being coached to do? If so, why because it’s costing us points, we’re so good at coming back from 1 goal leads but struggle holding onto them at times

One thing that did drive me mad was his refusal to sub Holmes despite him being knackered since the 60th minute, only to eventually replace him with Ledson and shove an unfit Evans out to RW

Miles better manager than Martin but needs to recognise that he has to go 4 at the back going forward, at least whilst players are available
