If my boss, was as unenthusiastic towards the tasks at hand, I think I'd probably struggle to generate results. In that conference, I thought he was borderline rude at times, his boredom with being asked questions that he obviously feels don't need answering shines through.

No disrespect to Gary at all, as I thought his questions were good, but I'd love there to be a fans forum right now with Jimmy, as I think he'd get quite a grilling. (If people could be bothered going to see him)

I think there's plenty to go at from that interview alone, it's too early to drop players, but he dropped Kev after 65 minutes of a performance that he was not to blame for.

When Lowes goes, which will be sooner rather than later, and I can't wait for that to tell you the truth. Never, ever did I think that I could dislike a person connected with Warrington so much, but I do, his reign will be remembered for me, by that forum with him & Gatcliffe. Getdownmonkeyman asks a question, Lowes gives a good five minute answer, but rambles off on a tangent, and finishes with "Was that alright for you ?" as a sign off, Monkeyman just says "No." pauses and says "Not really, that's not what I asked."

Easily my favourite moment of 2009, probably in my top 50, Ever.

Is Graham Murray still available..If so i think he'd be worth looking at proven pedigree in NRL and Super League...

I just want a coach who will get into that dressing room and kick some backsides

I just can't take ti Lowes, seems like a amateur coach(no offence) and dresses like one as well.

I would pay money to see 71 ask Lowes the same question he asked of Simon Moran. Electric.

"The Warrington people hadn't had success for a few years, but there's no speccy in the world as good. They are very knowledgeable and appreciative of hard work. What they like is honesty. They want the team to try; if they fail they fail, but they expect honesty. They know when players don't put it in." Mike Gregory in 'Biting Back':26672.jpg



Lowes looks, acts & sounds like a petulant teenage boy.

He is immature as a coach and as a leader of our team and as such should be shown the door, pronto.

A 7 match losing streak is a nowhere near good enough record for a team with serious aspirations of challenging for a game in the grand final (any bl00dy final will do!)

Lowes out!

Quote: Lowes Out Hanley In "Strange that skents hasn't advertised it on here.

Maybe Jimmy has been reading all the stick on here and has seen that Skents is a regular poster and thinks that he is part of the anti Lowes brigade.

So maybe Skents is giving us a wide bearth.

Or maybe skents took the hump with our feedback last week, which he asked for.'"


We all know nobody from the club apart from Greg reads this forum icon_cool.gif icon_cool.gif icon_cool.gif

it does make you laugh at our club, lowes was not good enough to run salfod as they saw through his lack of experiance, but warrington give him the job full time and its all gone down hill from there. I do think the club have used him as a stop gap till smith comes free at the end of the season.

if wire wait till the end of the season, what damage will be done ?

Just watched the interview and appeared Gary got short shrift reply with his questions whilst Ray French seemed to get a more respectful answer. Good on ya Gary, they were more probing questions than previously asked. Jimmy seemed very unprofessional and unprepared considering the type of questions that must have been expected.

When Gary asked Vinnie if the players had let Jimmy, down Jimmy stepped in and made a comment such as 'its easy at the top'. Well if its that easy why does he look so uncorfortable and why aren't we getting the results icon_rolleyes.gif Comparing the interviews he gave last season Jimmy now gives the impression that he is a guy under pressure.

Oh and 7 defeats on the bounce, we are supposed to forget about last years results. How can we when nothing has changed?

i think this is a bit of a mountain being made out of a mole hill...yes maybe he should try and come across a bit more business like but in his defence i can imagine he's just a chummy with ray french and anyone else there as he is with skents so he probably doesn't feel the need

and to infer what he is like around the players from his actions in an interview i think is a mistake its obviously not going to be the same

forget last season, as jimmy says, that was a different situation, we've lost 2 games yes both had a very bad collapse at end but its just 2 games if in 10 more we are in same position time to start putting pressure on

i think franchising should allow stability for managers as well as young players imagine if united had got rid of ferguson...they gave him a good 3 years or so before anything happened at all look how that ended up!

and on topic of ferguson forget getting big money manager in give jimmy a chance but get ferguson in as a management consultant in some form of role even just an hour a week we could swap it for united using hj get rid of scousers 2 birds with one stone!

To be fair I think you are talking utter codswollop!!

The situation at the end of last season is exactly the same as it is now, nothing has changed other than Nigel Wright. Jimmy has had a full off season with them and they look less organised now than they did then.

Warrington gave Paul Cullen a great deal of time, 6 years in fact and he just got to a point where he struggled to take them any further. Are you suggesting they do the same with Jimmy Lowes?

If we give Jimmy that long we may not get a franchise next time round, clubs need supporters to get a licence well unless you are 20 miles from another club and then anything goes.
