Lowe hasnt achieved anywhere near what robins has , nor has he demonstrated he can improve a team year on year .
They are not comparible
What’s prompted that up turn in form evo?
To be fair nick and il admit it , my heads fucking fried with it all so I don't know mate
Fair point re LoweLowe hasnt achieved anywhere near what robins has , nor has he demonstrated he can improve a team year on year .
They are not comparible
First half wasn’t bad, second half reverted to type and crowned it off with another defensive masterclass of a set piece. PNE missing a load of players looked a poor side as well.We definitely were not poor yesterday
nor has he demonstrated he can improve a team year on year .
Lowe was promted from league 2 with 2 teams but never demonstrated anything above thatFair point re Lowe
but the new manager has clearly impacted them positively
We improved league positions 6 years in a row , do you purposefully forget thingsNeither has Robins? We are going backwards the more money gets spent.
It was the other way around , 1st half preston the better team but we grew into it , city were the better team 2nd halfFirst half wasn’t bad, second half reverted to type and crowned it off with another defensive masterclass of a set piece. PNE missing a load of players looked a poor side as well.
Like I said, we’ve watched the same game and come to different conclusions.It was the other way around , 1st half preston the better team but we grew into it , city were the better team 2nd half
I'd rather be winning and bottom of the xg table than losing but top of the xg. Come on get realStats matter nick , every team uses them.
If we were losing and near the bottom of that table too , I'd be very concerned

Lowe isn’t in charge anymore? He left after the first game - Paul Heckingbottom came in and changed everything about them….Lowe was promted from league 2 with 2 teams but never demonstrated anything above that
Would you ?I'd rather be winning and bottom of the xg table than losing but top of the xg. Come on get real
I knowLowe isn’t in charge anymore? He left after the first game - Paul Heckingbottom came in and changed everything about them….
Southampton cheated?Would you ?
Preston we're top early on last season but they were near the bottom of the xg table .
It showed that their form was unsustainable and it showed as they dropped down the league
What do you notice about the xg table from last season View attachment 38956
Southampton cheated?
Considering Preston were shite - if anything they show that a change of manager can indeed improve the teamI know
Over 46 games, sure it does. After 10 games, 9 of which against teams who won’t finish top 6? I don’t think so.The top 3 were all promoted, almost all the teams in the top 9 finished in the top 9 .
It means something
Blackburn stayed up on the last day I take from thatWould you ?

2bf Blackburn stayed up becuase Birmingham made the inexplicable decision to put Rooney in chargeBlackburn stayed up on the last day I take from that
The fact they managed to create chances deffo helped that happenBlackburn stayed up on the last day I take from that
Exactly, and they are top half of the xg table, that’s my point2bf Blackburn stayed up becuase Birmingham made the inexplicable decision to put Rooney in charge
I'd rather be winning and bottom of the xg table than losing but top of the xg. Come on get real
Let’s hope we’re top half of the xg table and stay up on the final day then, Would be a positive season at this rateThe fact they managed to create chances deffo helped that happen
But it also shows that another manager can take a shit show and improve it. I remember even when they were top Preston fans were saying he’d fell out with the squad.My point was that lowe wasn't a great manager for preston and last season they were 23rd in the xg table, it wasn't sustainable so it's no surprise he's not there

I’m not sure Robins has the full backing of the squad, and if so it’s time for him to go, another face would get more out of these players
I know evo, that’s fair.The table clearly showed that in most cases , the teams that created the most , were in the top half of the table .. the top 3 all went up automatically
There’s always anomalies, but generally the xG table is a good indicator.Exactly, and they are top half of the xg table, that’s my point
There’s always anomalies, but generally the xG table is a good indicator.
I get Evo’s point. It potentially shows we’re just not taking chances and that’s the reason we’re shit.
however we’d have had a decent xG yesterday but our only shot on target was in the 92nd minute
Yeah I appreciate I was using that anomaly to support my argument, fair enoughThere’s always anomalies, but generally the xG table is a good indicator.
