I think the love affair has ended, why take off the two best players. The chants of you don't know what your doing sums it all up.

Fair enough - I’ve no intel to suggest anything one way or the other, was just basing that off the consensus opinion at the time

I heard from a reliable source that he was pretty much putting ink to paper but QPR came in with a last minute offer that was slightly better and we refused to match it. Lowe was fuming apparently. Take it how you will but it came from somebody at the club.
 
Any freebies from Wednesday or Bristol Rovers available soon? Lowe watching the game

If it wasn’t for our owners, I’d hope he’s watching Collins

I'm only half-joking when I say this:

Ridsdale heard Callum Paterson can play both RB and up front, saw his contract is up in the summer and thought "Christ, that'd be like two signings in one! Get Ryan down there now!"

Apparently the squad is lacking and we need a striker? Who knew?

So in other words we are a bit shit, but he’s happy with the shit, but would like us to be less shit, but PNE are shit and the players need to reflect on how shit they are because he’s been reflecting.

And he's now reflected that "staying in the top half of the division is half [hard?] but that's what we want to try and achieve.”

It's quite a climbdown from April's "if we finish 12th or 13th, I'm thinking 'right, we are 13 places away from being in the top flight' and that's got to be the aim for this football club".

Neil said the exact same thing when he was appointed. ‘Happy with the squad, not bothered if we don’t sign anyone’ and that soon became ‘I hate transfer windows’ and ‘this squad is shit.’ Neil also started with the same attitude - attacking pressing football. Then maguire got injured and hugil left and that pretty much stopped.

For anyone who doesn’t realise who the main problem is I’ve just been emailing good old Peter ridsdale this week. His response was summed up as there was no money in the budget to bring in any more players in, there have been plenty of successes in terms of signings at deepdale, he ignored the bit about why there wasn’t a fans forum and what our plan was, and he said if I was to criticise I need to get my facts right. This isn’t Fifa 23.

Now what I can imagine happening (if we lose on Saturday) fans will shout ‘we want Lowe out!’ And the players will get booed. Then Lowe will probably get sacked bring a new manager in. No one will dare speak up about the owner or Peter. 12/24 months later the same thing will happen just in league one. And fans wonder why we have been mediocre for the last 10/15 years.

Believe me, Peter Ridsdale believes he has been a success here. He is that arrogant.

This is the main problem, Ridsdale thinks he is infallible and knows everything. It's evidenced by the disdainful and patronising way he addresses the fans in his lectures....I mean club updates.

He’s a prime example of the dunning-kruger effect, he simply can’t take any criticism can he? It’s honestly infuriating.

Two problems inside of 60s:

- Lowe says there's a good bond between the academy and the first team, and under him, academy players are (and I quote), 'getting opportunities under me' at Preston North End'. Have I missed something? I can't remember seeing any meaningful runs for academy players.

- Lowe says we're playing a 'good brand of football; I'd like to think it's the best the fans have seen in a while'. Whilst it's better than Frankieball (not by a shots on target metric) we've scored a handful of goals this season and often barely registers shots on target most matches.

Am I going mad?

To be fair he’s got an absolute cannon of a long throw

With Lindsay, Storey and Hughes all a threat in the air, it might be our best chance of scoring
