When in the Championship they argued they were under Prem rules. When in the Prem they argued they were under FL rules. IIRC if they didn't get promoted last season they were in for a points deduction minimum. They spent well over the odds to get promotion which was added to overspend...

Did we ever put any bids/offers for him? For most of his playing career we were below his level and didn't have a pot to piss in. We didn't even have our own ground for some of it.

Because of the way Preston play I can see the side being made up of the bigger players and those that love to get stuck in. Can't afford to get bullied out of the game.

I await to see if the EFL hit them with a transfer embargo and big points deduction as they should do. Might be 6 months before they get a goal at home 😂

Ref should have blown for a foul. They spent the whole game giving us a little push as the ball came to our player and the ref hardly did anything about it.

Would love it if you're correct 😁

Look back. We've won 6 out of our last 7 league games and only lost to Leeds so people are thinking todays game won't be too difficult because they're mid table. I really hope I'm wrong. Would love to see us cruise to a win. They have injury problems but have only conceded 7 goals in their...

Yes we have. But making out we should win today against a side that has lost only once in the last 10 games including 5 games against sides in the top half? This game is going to be a lot harder than many think.

They don't at the moment. They have more interesting things to think about. But if we don't get promoted this season they will make sure to let us know how we see them as our biggest rivals and don't care about us. Just like several other sides do.

Norwich was supposed to have been a 6 pointer. Talking of Norwich..... Preston beat them at Carrow Road last week. Norwich scored more goals against us in injury time than they had shots on target against Preston for the whole game.

I expect I am also. What's your score prediction? I expect you to be wrong with it also 😁

Did you miss the bit where I said I think we will win? But 'think' and 'expect' are totally different. My money would go on a draw. 0-0 wouldn't be a surprise.

Against a side that has only lost 1 in the last 10 whilst only letting in 7 goals?

Just thought I'd add a few things for a bit of perspective. Preston have only lost 1 game since January 1st. That was away to Blackburn 2-1. In the last couple of weeks they have got through to the 5th round of the FA cup, beat Norwich away and drew with Burnley. They don't score many goals...

And? It was only a couple of weeks ago on here that we were hearing we would never catch Middlesbrough as they were above us and had games in hand. Yet before we play today we are 3 points ahead of them and have played the same amount of games. I still see QPR as more of a danger than them...

Can see him coming on after 60 minutes or more. He has been in training with us for a fair bit now but will still be missing match fitness. You can only get that from playing games. But you can see he will give it his all.

We have joined the race by winning games. A single defeat won't matter much. All the teams around us have been losing games. That's how we have caught them up/gone past them. A must win game would be last game of the season with a win guaranteeing a place in the playoffs. Realistically only...

Why not call it a roll? What would you serve me if I asked for a sausage roll? I love baps, but it isn't appreciated if you bite them too hard. COB? Close of business. That can cause people to have a cob on. Batch for me. A collection of items put together.

He is the master of getting things on the cheap. That's why I wouldn't discount either buying or not buying our club.

Manure wasted more than 350m on players not good enough. Their wage bill is astronomical. Nobody knows what Ashley has planned. He might just want to make money out of us. He might charge a higher rent to help get us on the cheap. But there's more money available for getting a Championship...
