I am sure we won there in the Championship a few years ago when Clive Platt and Juke scored, because I was there, or is my memory worse than I thought?

Will be a tough game. They need to win to gain on us so will be up for it, especially after their last two results. For us though is a great chance to stretch our lead at the top even more, and we seem very determined to win every game

When they play us Doesn’t every team need to win to gain on us?

I really do believe that this year is the year we break the hoodoo mate.

I don’t know about you, just beating PNE away would be symbolic that it is our year and it would be a huge psychological boost for the fans and players.

If we don’t do it this year it could be a long wait for another chance

Just going through some of the fans comments & they are really in a mess , with constant team rotation & players really out of form .
Nothing but bad vibes towards their manager & although he did a rallying call after the Blackburn game , I do believe an early Cov goal will melt these , including the fans , getting at their team .
Never a better time to press home our advantage, of a team playing as a team .

My first away game was Barnsley. A few of my mates came with and I sold it as ‘we always beat them, easy W’… we lost.

We’ve generally been a lot better than Barnsley but what’s strange about our Deepdale curse is that most of the time, PNE have been just as bad as us.

One of the reasons we’ve been wronging past ills v WBA, Swansea and a few others last season is because we’re actually a well run club now. The 2000s and 2010s we were a shambles club.

I remember going to Preston when they were bottom. We went 1-0 up and lost 2-1… thought if we couldn’t beat them then we were never going to

Need the no mercy approach to every game. The players know that not only are we in pole position to earn promotion, but also that there are records to be broken.

not bad for a 7th place side. Surely it’s pretty bad with all that “worth” not to be in the top spots.

Pretty confident we can beat them easily as we are better than them. Still if we lose it's ok, we will lose again at some stage and it's just how we bounce back. We bounced back really well last time.

Would take a point tbh, depending on what sort of front line we're able to put out.

This feels a long build-up to this one. Maybe because it's a tense one and a week between games. I have a feeling we'll be a bit makeshift upfornt, I've noticed that when people predict injuries they are usually right. We could realistically be without Rudoni, Wright, Sakamoto and Thomas-Asante. Now that Eccles and Torp are on form as well as Simms and with Mason-Clark doing ok also, we have a decent attack without all of those key players. Not too many attacking substitues though. I think with the weakened team and the difficulty of opposition that a score draw would be a likely and decent result for both teams. This team has a way of surprising us all though so holding out for a win. PUSB!!

Lampard was giving nothing away in the preview, i've got a feeling Rudoni and Saka won't make it, so we might go 5 at the back.

Approach the game with our usual attacking mentality. If we have to take a draw so be it.

Rushworth
MVE - Thomas - Kitching - Dasilva
Grimes - Torp
KKH - Eccles - EMC
Simms

Would need Simms to keep up form if we are missing the other 4 attackers!!!

I'm getting more confident as the game approaches.
Was not impressed with them against Blackburn.
