Great half, need to keep it tight and not concede a silly early goal in the second half.

It can yes, more so for older players of course. Professional athletes are still human athletes.

Preston look poor, but I think a lot of that is down to our snapping at their heels non stop, when they have the ball.

Lots of intercepted passes and balls won in challenges.

Just need to make sure Preston don't get one back in the first 15 of the 2nd half and I think we will be fine.

A 3rd though for us and that would be it for sure.

Why should it upset anyone, we are Cov fans and we want decent performances from all of our players

It would be interesting to see if Sheaf can play alongside Grimes

I'm easy with Sheaf being on the bench as it stands.

Getting Wright in is a bigger headache of the two. But a nice problem for Lampard to have.

Our expected goals is 0.73 so hopefully this means we will get a third

How nice is it having a player like Grimes who you're confident isn't going to mess up or do something stupid. Great signing.

Bit early for that. 2-0 is a nice cushion but also a dangerous score line

I know Preston haven't been much of a threat but how good do Thomas and Kitching look as a pair ?

The main point in my post was insinuating that agreeing to play Leeds midweek before Ipswich was a fucking stupid decision. I’m not that concerned about being out of the FA Cup, it was conceding 4 goals which pissed me off.

Where's the fun in that
Nah but in fairness we've looked good but Preston could easily get a few on the break so we need a few more to be safe.

3 subs for them at halftime. I think Riis is coming in and usually scores against us. Need to be careful.
