Francesc Fabregas Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 He might just be what Cowdenbeath need in the short term. How long is he contracted for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

End of season. Doubt we'd be able to afford him at Lowland League if it happens. If he has the start he did at Raith then I'm happy. He can't sign anyone which is a big part of why Raith fans hate him. As I said before if we could get Kevin McHattie on loan now we'd be grand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NELLY Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 In Locke we trust. I personally dont think its a bad appointment. Guaranteed wont be as bad as Nish or Fox. Will he be another cowden manager to do great things and move onto a bigger club - probably not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NELLY Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 If Locke keeps us up every single person slagging the guy will look stupid. Although longer term how he would fare with assembling a squad etc etc is different. He has an unbelievably hard task. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael W Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Pub league football beckons for Cowden. It's bad enough we hired him, but for another club to do so after a 100% record of failure? Astonishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Oh Gary. It might not be the worst appointment short-term, I don't claim to have knowledge of Cowden's squad but if they're under-achieving he might get a couple of results. Expect to be playing 4-4-2 and lumping at a big man though. Lack of a big man is not an obstacle. He genuinely is clueless though, and not just about football. A seriously dim man.

The coaching is shit and you can see how he bleeds confidence out of players. His plan B is to throw "forward thinking players" on in the last ten minutes, regardless of opposition, formation or anything. He generally gives the impression of being clueless about why things go wrong, and has no ability to stop them going wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Quite happy for him actually. Nice guy and apparently did a power or work. It didn’t work out for him at Rovers though. Numerous reasons why, largely due to some poor recruitment and inability to lift things when we were on the slide. Was very good at getting us up for the big games though, so he may work out in the short term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Vojáček Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Locke will win 5 games between now and the end of the season, Cowden will stay up, he'll then make a mess in the transfer market and be sacked in November with you winless in 13.Quote me on this, he does it at every single club. His win ratio will also be 27.8%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renton Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 At least we know now why Locke was so keen to get his pending one match touchline ban rescinded. Did that happen by the way? Or does the Cowden team have a one match respite from his tactical management? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
