Oh god he looked at his trainers! Im in the Lowe out club now. I can see it when we win others turned it around and when we lose its because they let him have another go at it.

PEP OUT!
Never forget!!
AF was a Mark Robins goal away from being a goner.
If the internet had been around then he probably would have already been down the road.

I think the summary of this thread is that Ryan Lowe is a marmite Manager.

Yeh, marmite's crap as well!
He's far from perfect, but we can only really assess after 46 games. His decision making can be infuriating but it's also easy to forget when he gets things right.
Agree, he's only going to go if he's poached, and I think there will be interested clubs next season.

I like Marmite. But I don’t like Lowe. Best see my psychiatrist.
A can’t help myself and hate myself for saying it but … I hate that brand …..

Careful, thats just a snapshot in time. By way of illustration, I once saw a picture of myself when I wasn't incredibly good looking and attractive to the opposite sex. What are the chances of that?

After pretty much 2.5 seasons we can assess now. On the pitch he's played a reasonable hand with the resources he's been dealt. Points return is OK, the big weakness is the tendency to go through horrendous runs of shipping shed loads of goals. The strength is the ability to come through those and produce a vaguely coherent team again. In a game of fine margins, it doesn't take much imagination to find the handful of points we'd need to be in the driving seat as far as getting in the playoffs is concerned.
Off the pitch, well, at best he's best left ignored. A bit of media / communication training could work wonders there.
Overall I wouldn't be too aggrieved if he left. I'd be very surprised though. I don't see him either getting the boot or another club coming in for him.
With regards to the media/communication lets not forget that when Alex Neil couldn't buy himself a result he came out with the "don't have a scooby what my best team is" comment. And yet there are some on here who still hero worship him and would have him back.
Maybe if he had a scouse accent history would remember him differently.

Agree. Alex Neil used to always say ‘first goal killed us.’
At least under Lowe we have shown some fight back ability.
I think you both should.

That was the point where we knew with 100% certainty that he was fucked.

Fair enough if that was the only possibility available but a Holmes should always be nicknamed Holmesey, no arguments. More poor decision making from Lowe.
Marmite? Yes.
Took us forward as a club? Yes.
Are we getting the exciting attacking brand as promised. No.
Does it show he’s adaptable and understands our strengths and weaknesses? Yes.
I don’t think we’ll get much better, clearly liked by the club and has apparently reduced wage bills etc. He’s here to stay, back him.

I simply dont get the OCD fascination with him..... its like people cant sleep without finding fault about him.
one day he will be sacked or poached........ then we can get on with criticising his replacement, whilst some wanting him back..
I find it all a bit Embarrassing to be honest.... especially as we aren't doing as bad as many thought or as better managers are doing
