Take a bow son,
Jamal Lowe has offered financial support to Barnet’s academy after the club announced non-playing staff are on notice of redundancy
Has he also offered support to our non playing staff ? For the majority of the season he was one of them......!Take a bow son,

Let's hope so.I'd it just me or does Lowe look like he's bulked up quite a bit in lockdown? I'd say he's put on about a stone (in a good way). He looked much stronger yesterday and wasn't as easily bullied of the ball as he has been earlier in the season. Finally looked like the player we thought we were getting yesterday. All credit to him... I'd pretty much written him off after almost a full season of mediocre (at best) performances, but yesterday he did look like a genuine threat. Good lad, clearly has the right attitude to keep fighting to improve in the face of a lot criticism he's had.
It does take time to adjust to going up a level, maybe the break has done him some good and allowed him to work on getting more physical. I agree he did look a bit more bulky yesterday. A bit like Massey did last season. If he can maintain that and be a bit more direct playing off Moore I think he can have a good end to the season and chip in with a few more goalsPersonally i think Lowe has shown he has potential to be a good player at this level when he's performed well - unfortunately he's just not performed well often enough. He's the same as Massey - he has the ability in him but we just haven't seen it enough and ultimately it's not how good you are on your best day but how good you are on a weekly basis.
If Lowe can get his confidence going and find a level of consistency he'll be an asset (same with Massey) - easier said than done but he's not the only player who's struggled this season. But on top of that he's completely uprooted his life off the pitch, the fans have been on him and the step up to this level is huge so maybe his struggling is somewhat understandable. But hopefully he's finally getting used to the higher level and finding his feet. Time will tell but he's made a great start and we hope he can build on that.
Last 10 matches:
Kieffer Moore - 4 goals, 2 assists
Jamal Lowe - 3 goals, 1 assist
Two solid Championship quality attacking players who both just needed time to settle into the team and a higher level of competition.
I was a big advocate of signing the pair originally but earlier in the season i did lose faith in both thinking they weren't going to make the grade. But credit to them they have turned it around and hopefully this isn't just a blip of improved form but them showing what we thought we were getting when we put down about 5m for the pair.
I don't want to get carried away and say they've both cracked this level yet - but the signs are promising now. Fingers crossed they can keep it going and the difficult starts will be distant memories for them.
Spot on. Moore hasn't improved, he was always a great player. The tactics have simply been altered accordingly to get him in the game more. Basically Paul Cook finally released that leaving him on his own in the opposition half and belting it to him in the air at every opportunity wasn't working.To be fair to Moore, I honestly don't think he has improved that much, earlier in the season he was just not getting the service and was very isolated, although he was still winning everything in the air like he continues to do now. Just since the turn of the year players have started to run off him and played more to his strengths. The Welsh Heskey
