All those involved played well on Saturday, but I always worry that they put everything into one game - they have not got the steam to go again. I'm more confident now we have Eros back, but I'd be much more confident if we had O'Dowda back. Anyway - Johnson out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will make today go so much quicker. Nicky Hunt? Because whenever a poster criticises a player, the lone response is "Which Hunt!" (I think that's how you spell it) Damn it! I've just seen Big Tone's post. Great minds and all that BT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which or Hunt? Certainly one looks a suspect spelling. The more I reid about our poor players - the more I wish they'd pack it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xiled Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 We haven't won at Deepdale for over 300 years and Preston have won 112 consecutive games against us. We don't stand a chance. Even a draw is beyond possibility. Phew, I feel better now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't play an in-form team away and expect to win. Preston are probably 60/40 favourites, so a tough game. If our lads show commitment and desire they have the ability to win games tough games, like they did at Sheffield Utd. I can accept defeats but only if the players did all they could.

And I would also add that in my time as a City fan lasting nearly seventy years, and that I cannot remember that we ever threw away a 3-0 halftime lead until Derby last season and the miserable non performance against Sunderland. No consistency. Yeah, in the last 70 years of our history this really ranks as one of the low points doesn’t it, because we drew a couple of games we should have won. We’ve been incredibly consistent for the other 69 years haven’t we. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderingred Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 I think the only thing that would make me have a meltdown tonight is if we either get totally thrashed, or throw away another big lead. I think I could cope with a narrow defeat as long as the lads gave it their all. Still plenty of games to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 I just hope the players are up for it and match them for comitment as without it we'll lose the game. Its a tricky place to go and it's about time we got a result up there. This is their big week with Fulham to play on Saturday so there's a lot of pressure on them to get the results. If we are serious, we have put one of our rivals out of the running. COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gert Mare Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 If we are not guilty of trying to 'over play it' then we might be ok. Quality of opposition was very poor on Saturday, but then again it was against Bolton and Sunderland and you can only beat what is in front of you. Would be happy with a draw at Preston. We can't afford to lose as this is another potential 6 pointer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sticks 1969 Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 I WOULD say the 5-0 last season has got to be johnson,s lowest point so any thing other then a huge lose tonight has got to be a step in the right direction. still have this funny feeling about the last game v the blades , maybe not the wide spread trouble like 89 but will have some EDGE.........................who knows?
