    Match Thread Preston North End FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 4th Nov

    Now been fully debriefed - The 18.18 back from Preston has been cancelled (the last direct back to cov is 19.18 anything after will mean changing plus of course the overspill from the cancellation.) The reason for our change in travel arrangements centres around my mates nephew (12 yrs old)...

    Match Thread Preston North End FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 4th Nov

    Our head honcho ticket master (He sorts all group matters concerning travel) sent a text to everyone (a bit vague to be honest) about the return train being cancelled. I called him and it transpires it concerns one individual who wasn't on the original cheap booking he made for us all weeks ago...

    My concern is that it will run from one small backward step for one man to becoming one giant backward leap for CCFC.

    Further trains have been cancelled apparently. We're travelling by road now.

    Deepdale hoodoo

    Me too. I don't think it was the same game, maybe a couple of seasons earlier - When Ndlovu gloriously smashed home a crossbar rebound. It put us in the lead but they equalised deep into injury time. Or was that the same game 🤔

    Deepdale hoodoo

    Few times 1950's again late 1960's but to be fair we were out of their league from 1967 - 2001.

    Deepdale hoodoo

    We beat them the very first time we played there - FA cup tie around 1910. Beaten them since in League cup and the rest has just been a bag of busters.

    Nice touch tonight-When will it turn toxic?

    He's a groundsman not a 'ploughman'. Besides, I think his wife brings him a flask of soup at HT so your gesture would be futile.

    Ronnie Rees RIP

    That's sad. Too young (?) to have seen him play but feel fully genned up on him from reading and hearing the stories from older relatives over the years. Have sent him a couple of Christmas cards in recent years when somebody on here ran a campaign for as many people as possible to do so. RIP...

    We've never beaten them up there in a league encounter - just a handful of various cup comp victories. Surely their players know (and have known) this statistic? Shouldn't that be the sort of thing that leads to complacency? You know - why big clubs regularly are beaten by smaller clubs in cup...

    Transfer Rumour Haji Wright

    Either that or resign himself to some remedial striker coaching. I mean, we have got him insured if all else fails, haven't we?

    Transfer Rumour Haji Wright

    We need a hitman, I mean a target man. No, I was right first time - We need a hitman. I just can't see this issue being resolved any other way.

    Imagine if Mike Ashley stepped in......

    Fraser group have reportedly sold the 'Missguided' clothing brand to a Chinese clothing 'giant'. How very apt that would be if they were to be our kit manufacturer next season, given this seasons transfer signing folly.

    Just hoping we get back to drawing ways - Not expecting a great deal more. Probably be the lowest home attendance of the season to date.
