If there is a single big boycott for Tuesday and the attendance is under 10,000 it might force Lowe out. The Saints Trust and Nick Illingsworth keep spouting this "ignore Lowe and support the team mantra". But the reason the team is so poor is nothing to do with the lack of support today. We had more people there than most clubs send to SMS. We still lost badly. A change has to be forced and the Lowe led group of main shareholders have to face up to the mistake they made in putting Lowe back in. They know that they are staring at their shares becoming worthless if this continues.

What I wish he would say. "I realise I am not good enough and have stepped aside for George Graham."

What he really said. "No power" says portaloo. "There is no belief in scoring". Er, Dear Mr Portaloo, it is your effing job to give them that belief. You are clearly not up to it.

Less than 10,000 and Lowe may have to resign.

"You cannot win in this division with kids".

Lowe is harming the brand image of Saints just like Ratner did to his own Company. The one difference is that if Lowe left the brand image would improve and some of the lost supporters would return and support at the game would be more united behind the team.

Total Football? Another Lowelife experiment ends in disaster with us facing; Relegation, Administration and the possible Demise of the Club. But then according to Lowe's dwindling group of backers on here, it is the fault of "fickle" supporters and has nothing to do with the poor choice of Coaches/Managers that Lowe makes. Almost one third of the season gone and we are third from bottom.

How can anyone defend Lowe and his shocking record of appointments. As the Chairman his single biggest task to get right is the appointment of the team manager/coach. Lowe manages to get this wrong 8 times out of every 10. That is the record of a failed Chairman. He replaces Pearson a manager who kept us up against the odds, with an untried foreigner as an experiment! How dumb is that? Pearson is doing very well at another club, meanwhile we are back in a relegation fight. Lowe may well drag us down into another relegation and administration. We will lose a club, he and the fools who back him will lose all their shares.

Average this season = 15,757 Average last season = 21,253 Difference = 5,496 fewer supporters per match. Would they all suddenly comeback? Not straight away, but given Leadership that can be trusted by the supporters, most of these missing 5,000 would. The fact is that Lowe's backers knew he would hurt attendances. Yet they clearly thought that it would not be as much as 5,000. Over a season that 5,000 = £3m.

We have a Club led by people that most supporters detest. We then have people surprised that we have the worst attendance % in the CCC. These people would be surprised to learn that the Pope is a Catholic. Rupert Lowe = 5,000 fewer supporters a game. A simple equation that he and the rest of the share holding idiots that support him need to learn fast.

Anyone hear the sky commentator refer to Dexter Blackc**k? One of 2 things good from the game.

We went into the season short of defensive players. So no surprise from me to find we are scraping the bottom of the League. Our only League win was against a demoralised Derby. We ship a lot of goals at set pieces, so why is our preparation so poor? Did we do no training for the past two weeks to get the defence right or were all our players away on internationals? No. Davis fails to command and organise his area today, well no surprise there he has failed to do that on may previous occasions.

The biggest concern before the season started was that our team was too light wieght and lacked height. That remains our biggest concern. Where is the hard man in midfield who can break up attacks and impose himself? I pray that Jan can inspire Wayne Thomas to be the dominating CB he used to be.

Does anyone think Lowe has not put off some supporters from attending/buying season tickets? Why does anyone defend Lowe's role at the Club when he is costing the Club revenue?

I am also not surprised by the state we are in. Crowds look to be down 5,000 a match. Well with little hope and the return of that well known killer of fan support Lowelife, why be surprised? The fact that we have lost both CCC games is also to be expected. We have an untried CCC coach playing a team full of lightweight youngsters in a league that needs some thugs. The results are in line with the components. Just pray for some luck before they get demoralised.
