Lowe

We are to midfield loaded.

Woodman
Storey -- Lindsay -- Hughes
Ledson ---- Whiteman
Brady ---- Johnson ---- Fernandez
Browne ------ Riis

Browne can play up front and would be better option to Parrott. Brady and Fernandez swapping sides.

This is what I would try

That squad proves my point perfectly. Playing Brady as a RWB when spends the whole time cutting onto his left making him predictable and Browne up top who has played up top once, and it was an utter utter disaster

Agree on both Brady and Browne. Unfortunately something has to give though as this current set up is shit. Mikey O'Neill must be either shit in training or has killed Lowes cat. Fuck knows how he's not getting a chance with our strike forces dogshit record. I don't get it.

Surely Lowe doesn't have the authority to refuse to sell Riis. I would have thought if the Hemmings wanted to sell him they would.
Not saying this in support of the owners by the way who have failed to get players in 2 key positions.
Awful finish to the transfer window.

I think Lowe wanted to sell Riis to bring reinforcements in . He never really played Riis for 90 min kept saying his head wasn’t in the right place.
But when the offer came in I guess it was to late to get replacements in .firmly at RL door for me .

That was my point really in post #9…

We are where we are…

Work with what you have got Lowe and don’t look for excuses.

We have enough good players at the club but we need to use them correctly.

Do you really believe we have good enough players in the striking department and for RWB?

How would you, for instance, use Riis, Parrott, Evans and Maguire 'correctly' to form a productive strike force?

Don’t talk absolute shite. Who the hell would want to come to a club with 22 players, one of which is on the transfer list, and the constant moaning of no money, no manager ever backed. We have had two good young managers, almost destroyed one and now close to finishing the other. Get a grip it’s the club and it’s owners and advisors that are the problem.

Agreed. Every word. But I struggle to figure out why RL would take Fernandez off.

I don't know about if he's been asked about that, since ?

We can't. One has lost interest and/or confidence, one runs around a lot but offers no goal threat at all, one is past it and the last one has been ineffective since his injury problems.

It's a theory, and a possibility too.


The other theory was that Riis was going to be definitely sold & the money gained was going to go to get Three players for the 'Ryan Lowe Cause' the Wing Back + another bought striker (Robbo) & the second-time Loan of Archer....(or was it "Two Wing Backs & a single striker) ?

Then the next theory that evolved over the next part of the Summer Break was that the designated Club Monies for better/fresh players was choked-off / cancelled / or simply reduced, ( by The Family )with the reaction by AL realising he'd better put his foot down or he'd lose the only decent striker he had (left), without any guarantees that what he wanted would and could have come into Deepdale.

Which maybe brings us to now. (?)

Hemmings out.

100% this. Harsh to blame Lowe today. He was on a bit of a hiding to nothing against the top of the league. But this cannot obscure the fact that we simply cannot score. The manager has to sort this out.

Certainly very good for Brazil.

This! Why did RL say that. Makes my blood boil.

Agree with this.

More often than not, a gruff "No comment from myself on that issue" coming from him in response to that, - would have said Loads, and sent a message that even those faceless f***s would have understood.

Today Ryan Lowe showed for me...he is clearly not up to the task. his refusal to adapt a system to suit the players he has available coupled with what looks nothing other than pig headedness to accept his system is a failure. he can moan all he wants about right wing back...we had opportunities to sign players but would afford them the assurances we had to give to spurs that Parrot starts every game if fit!.
Today his baffling selection and then the joke of a substitution was disgraceful. Alan Browne and Whiteman today were shocking and should have been hooked off at half time. Fernandez was the only attaching outlet on the pitch and McCann...well Not what he's done to piss of Lowe but it almost looks personal. He either changes his system and wins the next few games or come the end of October he's not improved things he has to be removed from his job...its that simple. I dont think he has it in him...LEAGUE 1 at Best

( Regarding specifically the highlighted in bold )

Is this TRUE 😲 ?

Utter rubbish

We don't have any players for RB or RW, so that's not false.

You're also not suggesting any alternative formations, unless I'm missing something in this blockbuster of a post?

flipper said:
Again nonsense

But it isn't.

He didn't sign all of the players in this squad - he didn't sign Cunningham, Whiteman, Bauer, Lindsay, Browne, Evans, Johnson, McCann, Storey, Hughes, Ledson, Olosunde, Maguire or Potts.

Unless you're arguing he's not improved players, which is probably subjective at best.

Cheer up mate, it's not healthy to be this negative all of the time 🙂
