Confirmed Statement from 'Peter & Craig"

Confirmed Statement from 'Peter & Craig"

.
Games moved on since he was around mate.

The game in all respects evolves. As it should if it is to survive.

However, the simple truth that football is a simple game remains, mate.

Play your best players, in their best positions, pass and move and, importantly, set out to score more than the opposition.

Simplicity that Lowe seems blind to.
 
Chelsea will turnover well over £2m per home fixture. Hate receipts aren’t just compromised of standard tickets, hospitality is also a part of the calculation. Chelsea and many other clubs manipulate FFP in many ways, one of which is to ‘sell’ corporate packages to related parties at hugely overinflated prices. We benefit from that in this particular instance.
Your misses waitressing for this one ?
 
I don’t rate Lowe, his demeanour or pre-match press conferences, however, I do believe the board are right to give him a little more time.

Whether it was pretty or not Lowe proved earlier in the season he can win games at this level (deservedly so or not) so he has probably earnt one last run of games to turn it around…

The board, like the fans, will know it is unlikely Lowe will turn this around so it will be a matter of when and not if Lowe is sacked. We won’t be relegated this season (another exciting mid-table finish) so from the outside the board are showing they will support a manager until it is absolute necessary.

Personally, I think Lowe’s recruitment has been very good and our squad is much better now than when he arrived. He has been backed (for a PNE manager at least) but lacks any tactical nous at this level. When it is going well he comes across as energetic and positive but when losing he is arrogant and bullish - he needs to find some middle ground.

I think if we get a drubbing on boxing day and a poor showing against Sheff Wed he will be gone.. if we manage to pull off a couple of shock results it will just prolong the inevitable.

Not sure who I would go for as next manager but someone with experience at this level could get this group moving upwards again
I agree this - but the defence is shambolic. And one area Lowe could be criticised for is neglecting tgat are
 
Everyone’s a football manager!
Not me
Retail guru,
Stock valuer and auditor
Postmaster
Small Business owner of a number of Businesses.
Economics degree and HND in Business and Finance etc,etc,

But still got a valid opinion of Football, having also had the mechanics to play at a low level!
Basically football is the world over if you have played any level of Football and for a reasonable period you have at least the fundamentals of the game.
After all the vast majority of Managers only played at a relatively low level.
Lowe being NO exception.

Apologies to @Madferret, gone off one generally rather than a simple reply - which i originally intended.
 
Most managers who receive it (over here in England) from the club's board, then the manager gets potted shortly afterwards. 👍
A bit like a degree at Uni, getting a 3rd at UCLAN is an achievement but getting a 1st at Oxford or Cambridge means you're in a different league.
 
On London Road, the former building 'PETER CRAIG' is now rebuilt as a Lancaster University school of Maths building.
( And not a UCLAN building 😉)

Just noticed that the other day. That’s a heck of a commute if you’re a living on campus and studying maths.
 
I remember when the Great Universal Stores building was being built, I worked for Chris Miller's at the time.
I brought two whopping great static water tanks from a place near Edinburgh and one of their big cranes hoisted them on to the roof.
Don't know why we are going on about this building but just thought this could be relevant. 😟🤣
