You have to laugh at those who called for Walker to start ahead of him.
Well they got their way today, and although he did OK, Godden showed the difference in quality when he came on.

You must think Robins is clueless for being the one who actually started him then?
Both players had a good game - ffs.

What a day. Stopped off in Preston before the game, met a few PNE fans who asked us to thump the Donkey Lashers. Met an old school City psycho, who had lost his drinking buddies in a pub in Blackpool. Match ( enough said) then back to Preston pub to be greeted like heroes by same locals. Sang songs all the way home. Got off coach by my house, to be growled at by my dog (wife taking him for a walk) until he realised it was me. If Carlsberg did days out

Not sure who says nothing, but there have been some very executable chances he has missed lately. In that sense he offers less than he should.

Matty godden XG per 90 is 0.5 and he's actually sitting on 0.4 .

Your argument that he's missing some very executable chances barely holds weight

He's also scored more goals per 90 this season than players like Brereton , josh sargent and Joel piroe ..

He's a very lucky boy. Would have been a 3 game ban too. I get his frustration as he gets no protection, but you can't do that. Got extra lucky that he was booked for it, which I think means they can't apply any retrospective action.

Quite proud that robins and fadz came out and said second penalty was a penalty and we got lucky.
Wenger - didn’t see it
Ferguson - didn’t see it

Shows a sort of footballing fairness class

Robins has always been class and fair in after match comments. I remember when we played Bristol Rovers in L1 and their manager was either unwell or off for family reasons the 1st thing he talked about was hoping he was ok.

Those mentioning vik should of been sent off, agree it was aggressive and some refs would have sent off, but did no one see the guy try get hamer off the ball with his arm in face just before our 4th?

Where did I say Robins was clueless ffs???

I'm sure Walker got a start because Godden needed a rest after so many games since coming back from a lay off.

walker did OK, but Godden was a step up in class. (As he usually is)
when all our squad was fit, (Inc Waghorn and Tavares) Walker was 5th choice striker.

my guess is he will be in league 1 next year which is his level imo. That's not disrespecting him, it's just a fact.
I certainly can't understand the clamour for him to start.

why is that so hard for you to grasp???

Godden scored a decent goal set up on a plate for him, against a team 3-1 down pushing to try and get back into it game stretched and leaving 2v2 at the back. I wouldn't say he was a step up in class from Walker.

Walker did well yesterday.

There is no way Walker is behind Taveres

Happy with team. Forget if Walker works out not, optimistic that Godden after 60 minutes is a potent sub.

Anyway as it happens, Walker did well. Have him soften them up for Godden worked as intended.

Thought Walker was excellent yesterday, certainly first half. Made good runs and was heavily involved in all our best attacking moves. He faded a bit 2nd half but that’s to be expected after so little football this season. Hope Robins starts him against Stoke in 2 weeks.
