MATCHWATCH : Preston North End (a)

[paultheroyal]

Got one of those sneaky feelings that we are going to win this tomorrow. Hunch, intuition, something, just something, but 3 points incoming.

I am going to this one so I hope you’re right. Apart from possibly Wigan I don’t see us winning anymore games this season but you never know.

A contender for the most nailed on home win in the history of football. I would not go to this game if you offered me a free ride in a Lear jet And luxury box. For those who go I salute you. But you really do need to evaluate where you are heading in life.

Clearly they are favourites, but we’ve only lost by more than one goal twice in the past twenty matches. So whilst often dull as ditchwater to watch, we are rarely comfortably beaten.

Preston have had some odd results at times this season and I see losing at home to Reading being another one.

We’re a bit of a bogey team for them so who knows

We are capable of winning games with the forwards we have. It’s possible if we can keep a clean sheet, which I doubt we will

The last clean sheet in the league was the 1-0 home win over Coventry on Dec 10th 19 games ago.

We pretty much always beat Preston without fail, except for when we lose or draw.

Shocking. This more than anything else is why we’ve been so dire recently

[Ascotexgunner]

The three loanees they have are real quality up front.

They seem to play like a V formation.

Yeah that seems to have gone unnoticed a bit really. Considering we were quite a hardy team at the beginning of the season, we've gone backwards in that aspect. We were never going to score many goals with the way we play and the options we've got, so it's imperative we keep them out. It seems to be that we are conceding a fair number of soft goals as well in recent games, usually from our errors, rather than good opposition play.

Anyone who thinks we will win tomorrow is deluded

[Royals and Racers]

Dann, NGW and Loum start today. Meite crocked.

[Sutekh]

[Ascotexgunner]

Has it actually taken this f*cking long and us falling into the relegation zone for him to get NGW to start?

[Orion1871]

Glad we've gone for some pace at the back.

[royalp-we]

Loum, Dann, Sarr and Holmes. ‘Kin ell

Should have Mbengue starting - whether that is in defence or midfield. Brings a much needed energy to this team.

[Ascotexgunner]

Glad we've gone for some pace at the back.

Hmmmm if we play a high line we are in serious trouble.

[Sutekh]

Reading play a high line? Wouldn’t that suggest being positive and looking to win a game
