Yes, we were completely outplayed weren't we?

Where in my post did I say we were outplayed? You do know you can be dog shit without being outplayed. That is possible you know. Weve just done it. They were happy for us to have the ball as we were doing fuck all with it!

People post when they're hurting. Not the best thing to do.
WTF are they hurting for?

Pissed off I can understand that once again we couldn't win there, but a point away at a team in 4th is perfectly respectable

We’ve pulled of results like that with 10 men, it happens and think we can allow them the odd dodgy result, if this a bit bit of a dodgy spell just need to get through it, 10 point gap to 3rd and we’re moaning, who’d of thought 😂

Feels to me like one of those games. Preston last ditch defending for most of the game and it paid off. Trying to remember the last team that pulled this off against us - but it can happen and you have to give them credit - they worked extremely hard for it.

Hull did a similar job, but our finishing was particularly poor in that one as well.

Wright getting a bit of stick.
Thought he was a handful.
An average goalkeeper and the usual standard of lino (not one with eyes of a hawk like tonight) and he comes away with a couple of goals.

Not sure why he was making their centre forward for their goal though!!

Lack of quality in the attacking third on a very poor pitch, which didn't help. DaSilva played well but should have closed down the crosser that led to their goal. Not sure what Wright was doing trying unsuccessfully to mark Jebbison. Wright's movement was good up front but his decision making and finishing was poor.
We lost control and shape after their second half subs, which was disappointing. At times they were overloading us!

The one from was it Saka's ball that the keeper tipped wide was a great save

We needed a professional calmness to see that game out. Led by Grimes.
Instead we got the usual defensive disorganisation and cock up.
Stop crosses and FFS get our strikers out the way in the 6 yard box and let defenders deal with it.
Said this before kick off, it’s cost us again.

The big mistake our fans are making is thinking it is easy playing against 10 men. Especially at team like Preston away, who are very good defensively and keeping it tight.

They aren’t even a possession based side. They didn’t look any different in their approach with 10 or 11 men.

The ref gave us 10 men to play against for a half time, we played poor. A team that is ruthless wins that 2/3-0

No he didn't. The Preston defender gave them 10.

We have won all 5 of our games in November, lost away against Ipswich and drew away to Preston just now. Are you okay?
And played shit in all of those 5 games. Granted, results have gone in our favour in them, but we went behind in 3 of them 5, including to a very poor Charlton, we got pegged back from 2 up by Boro, and have got 1 clean sheet in 9.

Was trying my best not to read anything on here after the game but couldn’t help it.

EMC not good enough for the championship? Fucking hell. Get a grip.
