It’s the inconsistency again. Two cynical shirt pulls, one gets a yellow. Hamer gets a yellow for running into a player off the ball. Walker and Vik get wrestled every time they touch the ball and nothing. Just pick a lane refs! Must be so frustrating as a player. Gutted for Gus, didn’t deserve that at all.

On the positive. We ground that out. It's a decent point. Cant knock it.

Unbeaten run gos on.

Hamer/McNally best performers.

Think Walker done ok when he come on.

Got Yakubu vibes from Godden’s performance tonight.

Walker didn’t do too bad when he came on.

McNally was brilliant again.

Speaks volumes that with all of our injuries in attack, Maguire doesn’t get a look in.

With the good chances we had against a home side lacking in confidence, how could a team with play off aspirations say that was a good point?

Still have play-off aspirations you can’t win them all, Preston have play-off aspirations too, good point.

He gets frustrated when he’s getting no joy out of his Center Back and it affects the rest of his game I reckon.

I think they had the better chances, Evans and Delap, so it's a decent result, injuries mounting up again, have to hope Allen is just a knock and he can play Saturday as Esbrand doesn't look comfortable at A.M., how far away is Sheaf ?

1 point more than we usually get there, so I’ll take it. Personally thought NC was fine, more so first half than 2nd. EW is playing out of position, so it’s obviously as simple as he’s shit. They had Vik in their pockets tonight, defence did well with him to be fair. Burroughs did well when he came on I thought. Awful finishing.
Special mention to the ref, who was dogshit. Some baffling decisions, but also how do you let a ball hit you that was passed from 20 yards away.

Didn’t get much quality service either. They marshalled him well though

Will take the point and look forward to hopefully a good haul of points from some very winnable games coming up.

Cuffey was awful - it’s not sending a great message to Burroughs that he’s down the pecking order to him as he’s our player

Definitely but Preston defended him better than any side I've seen for 2 years. The big lad at the back was superb.

Vik started to get the better in the last 20 mins but the ref gave him nothing. Shock.

I'll be amazed if Burroughs doesn't start Saturday.
If Cuffy starts ahead of him then he must be on some sort of City pay if he doesn't play deal.

There's a load of rubbish spouted on here.

Another clean sheet for the defence.

Not NC's best game but has looked good last few weeks.

WE is playing out of position.

Burroughs didn't really do anything when he came on.

We can't shoot.

Walker looked good, a lot of energy. Needs game time.

So much expected of Godden, he's just come back from injury and is not match fit.

Eccles tackles like Sheaf.

same team otherwise

if we haven’t got Allen then god knows

Can that marco rus from the 21’s be any worse than JWE?

All 4 shots on target were from way outside the box. We didn't have a single clearcut chance, where as Preston had 2, the fact they failed to hit the target from either of them let us off the hook.

I get some of the frustration, PNE looked nothing special. But frankly neither did we and that really is down to being reduced to a skeleton midfield. If Allen really is injured as well I dread to think what we'll look like in the next 3 games.

Finishing was really poor-no idea how either side didn't score.

Benchwarmer Maguire gets a stranger signing every week. Will be surprised if he amasses 30 minutes for the rest of the season.

BNC was decent on Saturday but today he looked fatigued from about 20 mins onwards. I'm amazed JB didn't come on at HT. BNC is 18 years old, he's going to be inconsistent and whether people like it or not, our model atm is to sign young players on loan to keep us in the Championship and fill in the gaps.

Sometimes they'll be outstanding, sometimes they will be shite and sometimes they'll be 7-10. I won't slate them for being inconsistent, BNC and JWE will go on to be decent players but for now they are inconsistent. As was Doyle at the start of the season and panzo.

Anyways enough waffle. Burroughs to start sat for me and on a side note, I agree with someone else above about Godden. He's not had a good full game for over a year I'd say

Bidwell’s was a decent chance and inside the area.
