Yes - there is a press conference this afternoon with Lowes and Gatcliffe heading the table with another, yet to be confirmed, person.

I thought after that thread last night, that I would not see the words "reliable source" again...

I couldn't have been more wrong...

I can see Lowes being part of a new structure where I could never see Cullen fitting in a position where he was going back down to being assistant.

Didn't Lowes say he'd only stay for head coach or else he would go elsewhere? Or am I getting mixed up with someone else?

Personally I can't see Lowes accepting a back seat now, after the time he's had in charge. Plus after the fiasco this season has been so far would anyone want him in a coaching role at the club? If/when a new coach moves on Jimmy, as assisstant, would be prime candidate to take over again.

How's this going to work then? Presumably if someone else is being brought in 'above' Lowes, as it were, then this new person will inevitably make changes, start to do things a bit differently, etc. in an attempt to put right our current failings.

Meanwhile, Lowes will have to stand there nodding and backing up his new superior, which will be a tacit admission that much of what he (Lowes) has been doing hasn't worked.
