Don't worry lads. Have just bought us 3 points. Had £8@44 us half time them full time and now £50 on a draw @ 4.6 and 4.7

Well firk me if this aint a strange match. First 25 we were playing well, good movement and 3 or 4 good chances. Lovely goal and then we switch off completely. Passing poor, very few consecutive passes, long ball starts up and we are last to every ball. Midfield we are playing 3 but jennings is the only one covering. He's going to get a red soon as well due to the amount of tackles he is having to put in.

Need to sort out the middle of the park for me. Cyrus also not inspiring me today I'm afraid.

However we are 1 0 up and it could be worse. Living dangerously tho.

 

[Grendel]

Played quite well first 25 mins then pretty turgid for the last 20 of the half. We've started going long too often and stopped passing it around.

Great cutback from macca.

Moussa and Christie very poor today, lost the ball everytime they tried to dribble

The winger had switched sides and Christie may have a tough second half.

Centre halves and Adams done well. Bailey looks good as well and mcsheffrey has improved a lot in recent weeks.

It's certainly an ugly game, but I'm just glad we held onto the lead until half time. Hopefully MR is shouting them into shape.

Anybody else feel a little embarrassed by that ht thing?!

 

[Otis]

And sorry but still not seeing what Barton offers , it's like playing with 10 men

He's a good player in a team that is dominating. Not so against a physical team allowing no space. Couple of nice touches but the game is passing him by a bit. Baker would be better, but again he has a tendancy to struggle somewhat against the more physical sides. We are 1 nil up but I am rather concerned. We need to up our game.

What, that man in Block 19 who is dipping his moustache in his soup or the the woman with the 4 teeth missing?

Slow start but then Barton magic almost gets Jennings in

 

[Baginton]

[BackRoomRummermill]

Maybe time to bring Baker on .............................................. ?

He came on about 10 minutes ago for Moussa.

 

[covkid69]

Double bollox :-(

 

[Evans1883]

It has been coming

 

[Covstar]

That goal was coming... Need a bit of composure and pass it around a bit!

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

Just stay unbeaten

 

[ccfcway]

Who's looking likely

 

[Covstar]

12,600ish at the Ricoh. Certainly not the 'worst' of the season as it was mentioned before the game.

 

[Evans1883]

12600 attendance 600 preston

 

[curly_tom]

This is tense, I have a bad feeling about this game

 

[Covstar]

Stephen elliot free header MISSED!! Cannot believe it...

 

[Evans1883]

Elliot misses sitter

 

[ccfcway]

So, Preston then

 

[Evans1883]

So, Preston then

Basically yes

 

[curly_tom]

Seems like we're clinging on, 1-1 would be a good result at this point. Disappointing.

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

Kick up the arse they need to get real and not invincible

 

[curly_tom]

They didn't need a kick up the arse, they'd been doing well of late.
