Maybe it is the opposite to some on here, but I am feeling a lot more relaxed about tonight. If we win that's probably about 25% of the remaining needed work done to achieve our goal. In short, a huge step forward on the final push.

Other teams our flapping, we've smashed through the clouds and broken out of our dodgy spell. We look genuinely a lot better in the last set of games too, it isn't just a few lucky results.

I feel confident we can get the 3 points tonight.

There also seems to be a laser focus and determination about the squad as well. Win the next 2 and we're more or less up, IMO.

Feeling confident tonight.

We’ve found a level of form and different ways to win. Being 1 man down for a period of time and scoring during that time before ultimately winning will also add to the confidence levels.

I would go with the strongest team. I understand the desire to rest players but winning the immediate game is more important than planning ahead at this stage.

Keep momentum and confidence going, while also not giving our rivals any added motivation or a feeling they can catch us.

3-0. Sakamoto MOTM.

PNE have been a thorn in our side ever since PL relegation.
Hopefully tonight is the last time we play them for a while. Let’s finally thump them

Let’s hope this is like the game at Highfield Road circa 2004 where we were 4-0 up after 28 minutes

We did last year and were soundly the better team in December. There shouldn’t be a a big hang up on playing them.

Nervous about this one. We are in great form, they are in horrendous form. I was less nervous against Middlesbrough lol

What a game that was. Fabulous we were for around 30 mins or so and then they came back into the game, but it was already won by then.

Always remember Julian Joachim completely outpacing one of their centre backs, even though the defender had about a 4 or 5 yard start.

Exactly the same. I was confident against Boro.

I think Preston will try and disrupt as much as possible and also keep sniping at us, trying to wind us up.

Kitching worries me the most our end.

Hope BTA steadies down and stops the Roy of the Rovers wild shooting stuff.
Great chance for him and Simms.

Iverson was the reason we didn’t score numerous times at their place, and him not being in the team has coincided with a terrible run for them.. could do with him not being back to decent fitness and form.. saying that, normal plan should do it.. get into them early, swarm both wings and let Haji do his thing …

Iverson is starting tonight.

Maybe Wright is carrying a slight knock and FL is hoping we can do the job without him

Could be he might be okay from the bench for 15-20 mins or so, but is a risk for a full game.
