We were warned by Bury fans that Lowe doesn't prioritise his defence. I'm not sure that's entirely true, but it has become obvious that he won't alter his philosophy regardless of the strengths of the opposition, which leaves us vulnerable to the odd kicking - especially away from home when we'll be attacked more.
His Bury side conceded 3 or more goals in five away games last season, which is quite a lot for a side promoted automatically.
Yesterday was hard to take but it wasn't the first away-day shellacking under Ryan Lowe and it won't be the last. Personally I think it's worth it for the brand of football we're playing and to be where we are in the league. That said, I do hope we sign a couple of decent centre-backs in the summer.
