Goalkeepers up for grabsCan see a similar lineup to last game to be honest.
As I've said before, I'd personally like us to give a 3-4-1-2 a go but I doubt it'll happen.
Can see a 4-2-3-1:
Dovin
Lati
Thomas
Kitching
Bidwell
Eccles
Sheaf
Rudoni
BTA/Simms
EMC
MVE
Ordinarily I'd say Lati wouldn't play or at least wouldn't start because of the internationals, but with Tatsu out and Wright also being on international duty I can see him being put back in so MVE can play right wing, also it's Lati so he has to be shoehorned in somehow.
A good pass followed by an iffy finish straight at the keeperThat was a very good pass from Wright.
Let’s hope he can start putting a few more in more us, though we will need Simms, BTA or Bassett to start scoring from them.
Gotta love those 4:30a.m. starts.Pleased it's an early kick off so we can get back in the light. Hate Preston. Got two tickets last year after straying into bus lanes, twice 8 minutes apart! £70 lighter.
Hope to see Dovin starting on Saturday.

Looks like the love child of Matty Godden and Viktor Gyökeres.
That's fucked up!
Tbf I think Binks might be better going forward than Bidwell. Would probably take time to adapt though.My god we do not need a centre back playing at full back, especially given that full backs are supposed to form a good part of our attack.
I like this tho personally I'd start Simms over Wright.With Bidwell out, surely we need to switch to a back 3, allowing Dasilva to play LWB his natural position. We can also bring back Lati or Binks as the 3rd CB. It allows us to play 2 central strikers, or a SS / CF. I can see Sakamoto and Thomas-Asante being useful in that central role behind the main CF.

Ched Evans still plays?? I thought he'd long retiredAll missing for PNE
Ben Whiteman, Will Keane, Patrick Bauer, Ched Evans, and Milutin Osmajic.
Can't think of a better time to face them to be honest.
Bolton away vibes coming back!!!Can't think of a better time to face them to be honest.
You’ve doomed us even more so nowAll missing for PNE
Ben Whiteman, Will Keane, Patrick Bauer, Ched Evans, and Milutin Osmajic.

Anybody know how many we've sold for this? Setting off at 7.45am (almost forgot it was a 12.30 ko)
Longer distance 12.30 kos are a passion killer in terms of making it a 'day out'. Very little pre-match pub opportunities. Bloody SKY etcApparently 2400

I did the same thing when buying my tickets & booking coach.Anybody know how many we've sold for this? Setting off at 7.45am (almost forgot it was a 12.30 ko)
Wright will have played at 3am our time on Wednesday then flown transatlantic I don’t think he’ll start.
Last season, we lost at Rotherham and Preston away in October. Two poor performances (equal to the Leeds & Swansea games recently). We didn't click into gear until the Stoke home game on November 11th, which was 0-0. Then the run started. 1 defeat in 13 up to early February.I have been pessimistic about our chances on Saturday, which is hardly surprising given our terrible record against PNE.
For reasons I can't explain, I woke up this morning feeling quite optimistic and I think we will win.
I can't see us keeping a clean sheet or scoring a bagful of goals, so I'm going for 2-1 to us.
They had a week off didn’t they? So I think that’s impossibleWould just like us to play like we look like we've been training for the last two weeks.
That run started 2nd half at Preston where we switched to 433/4231 and looked much better for it.Last season, we lost at Rotherham and Preston away in October.

The last league win i think would be the 4-1 where Bjarni Gudjonsson scored twice and missed a pen. He looked like an absolute world beater that day (or night, think it was a night game.)The last win against Preston anywhere
