Brownies HONEYMOON PERIOD

[blumooncrab]

Let’s see how we feel at the end of the season but for me right now it seems like a good fit. The board have an opportunity to understand Phil Brown , and vice versa. We need stability. A lot players contracted already for next year. I’d like to think we keep Brown and Holloway and build from there.

The Holloway situation will depend on whether Burton decides to release him or not - if they do then yes i'd try and sign him (if Brown is manager)

The Holloway situation might be clearer as soon as next week as the League 1 season finishes on Saturday. As Burton are mid table they may release their retained list very shortly.

What has changed people`s mind about Amadi-Holloway 2 weeks ago he was garbage according to many forum members.

Guess as a fan I’m over concerned that we have to do everything possible & cover all bases with this next appointment?

1000' of fans and 100's of Boards have done that over the years in 1000's of clubs around the world and the one pretty certain thing is that no matter how much research and planning you do, its usually down to a large slice of luck whether it works on not.

Of course Steve that’s life but I’m not believing that you don’t get that the harder you work the luckier you get?

He actually started playing.

He’s getting much faster ball under Brown. Under Cooper it was laboured and predictable, and easy to defend. As we’ll all have seen the ball goes forward much quicker, and at a faster pace. Gives him a lot more opportunity. His hold up play with back to goal is excellent, and his headed flick ons very effective. No wonder Brown has been singing his praises.

It's a fair point that you are trying to make and will be understood.

Up and down the country, however, clubs will be producing development plans for doing things better next season. Even if every single club is successful in implementing those plans, however, only the same number of clubs as this season will win the Premier League or gain promotion from their respective leagues. Similarly, the same number of clubs will face relegation.

Hard work is essential; working smarter is even more important.

I was a Holloway doubter but Brown has changed his mentality,we are finally seeing the number 9 we signed he holds up the ball well and his heading has improved he wont score loads of goals but he looks a good target man now and other players can feed off him we would imo got a result at Exeter if he could of played and with a good pre-season for Brownie or whoever is in charge to improve him i can see him as an asset for us next season if we can sign him up but we shall see.

Just throwing some stats into the debate - under Cooper 37 points from 37 matches, under Brown 7 points from 7 matches, with 2 to go

Matches worth watching under Cooper few and far between

[liverpoolann]

Like Holloway would like him to stay but only if he trains with team more than the now two days a week quoted.Believe he lives midlands way so could be problem?He will probably look for something closer to home.Hope we get more north west and northeast players and a sprinkling of those from elsewhere with a point to prove as our replacements.

There’s been more excitement in Browns 7 games than the previous 37

A good article in The Mail by the only decent reporter employed by Newsquest in Cumbria Jon Coleman who has spoken to Phil Brown on his future at Barrow

I don't think he'll stay. I want him to but I have a feeling he wont.
