Im sorry but this isnt 80 minutes.

It's 640 minutes of pure agony
It's c£140 minimum per fan in tickets (plus flights)

I hate seeing people lose their jobs, its not nice, but at the end of the day, the club is a business. We are losing fans hand over fist at the moment and we need to act fast.

Quote: pie eater and proud of it "A bloke who mixed it in the front row for years in the worlds toughest sport ?

I dont think so.

If he did what he is alledged to have done, then that is bad, but come on...... boozed up mouthers and keyboard warriors wouldnt last a minute with him in a fist fight.'"


Jimmy Lowes is not Chuck Norris

I personally know a supporter he has told to Eff off for simply saying "some game that Jimmy" and that supporter was about 10 stone wet through and had his kids with him...

when He finds the nearest meat head and offers him out then fair do's....

if you've ever played the game those with the biggest mouths are not always the hardest.... I know I used to be...ahem ....er... play with one.... eusa_whistle.gif

Come on guys cut the man some slack'"


You MUST be related to Lowes.

Quote: Slugger McBatt "What Lowes failed to realise however was that all he was doing was getting himself wound up and not doing his job, and that is coaching his team. I expect he had little chance to analyse his team's performance because he was paying too much attention to the chanting from the terraces, which did exactly what was intended, put him off.'"


yep agreed this is not the first time he has lost it , basically he cannot cut it at this level he is the face of the club thats his job.

Disgrace complete disgrace

In this current economic climate most of us don't get the sack for being crap at their jobs, people get the sack because the company is cutting costs and are making posts redundant. And the redundancy pay they get will be pittance compared to the compensation Lowes will get if the board sack him and pay his contract up.

So its nothing like the problems other people face in the recession.

If he doesn't like the fact that people will get on his case for losing eight in a row (isnt that now Warringtons worst ever run in SL?) then coaching in professional sport isn't for him.

If he got sacked he would have his contract paid up so no worries.
If needs be, he would flip burgers at mcdonalds.

Lowes doesn't believe himself to represent the club and town, clear in his demeanour and attitude to fans/ press etc is not suitable for a team with high inspirations. If he was threatening fans it needs to be acted upon.

As for dealing with press, i would love to do Garys job interviewing James next week.

He will probably be punished with a new two year contract.

I'd like to close this post with a final comment,
Lowes out.

Fat blokes in the mud, flat caps, bogs that drain pi55 directly onto your boots - Now it's all 'Big Ask', 'Arm Wrestle', 'Collision' 'Contact' 'Facials' 'Upper Body Strength' 'Big Units' 'Scooting from Dummy Half' 'Energy Levels' 'Laying the Platform' ‘Middles’ and 'T-R-Y'. Let’s not forget resilience.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32137.jpg



If Warrington had done a proper job in the appointment of a new coach after Cullen we would not be even discussing this.

If the criteria was listed then Jimmy would not have made the shortlist.

Personally I have never liked the appointment of assistant coaches in any sport and can't really recall any sucess stories. OK, Liverpool had the Shankly, Paisley, Fagan production line but thats about it.

Even Salford didn't give him the job after they sacked Karl Harrison.

The key point is Jimmy didn't give himself the job. he was appointed by others. If a vacancy came available at any club and I mean any club, would Lowes now or 6 months ago be considered for the job.

I quote myself from a topic earlier on.......

Quote: LoyalFan "The season before he took the Warrington job he had to be held back from scaling the fences to get at the Salford fans away at Catalan.... just because he was receiving some due criticism. At the Millennium Stadium when you guys leathered us... I had a couple of words with the guy... and it was like arguing with a child.

Now look at all the other coaches in the league and imagine any one of them doing the same.
'"


He's not mature enough.... simple as.

I made a similar point to this not long back. The difference with Liverpool promoting from within was that they were already successful.

We weren't much cop under Cullen. Now we're worse.

i didnt seethe incident so can't comment too much other than it doesn't suprise me as i have seen first hand lowes chuck his teddyout at murryfield cup final vs saints, the point is warrington have on paper a cracking team full of highly skilled individuals that imho should be challenging for top 3 at least, it is ery plainly obvious to me mr loews can not get these players to play for him, as someone said he is a assisant coach at least till he learns his coaching trade in lower leagues and warrington need a good coach fast to sort these under performing players out

*Insert witty banter type comment*:26414.jpg



wow, just read the first page and thats pretty poor if thats what he has been up to. OK its not nice been goaded by p1ssheads etc but you are the coach of a professional team and its sad to say but it comes with the territory. been the professional that he is supposed to be he should be rising above all this

Quote: The King Of Birchwood "This is the very reason why Lowes didn't get the Salford job.'"


If he did behave like this - then he has got to go.
Not because he is a thug - he just isn't a coach.
It was noticeable on the TV he was in the dug-out 1st & stands 2nd half - does indicate something happened.
Like it has not happened before.

The changing rooms at 1/2 time were different weren't they.
Wakey sitting down listening to Kear.
Wire walking round - no coach input ?
