Preston second: https://streamja.com/w2d3a

Some goal that.

[EstoniaTallinnRed]

And to make it worse the gas with 10 men score the winner in stoppage time!

[Ivorguy]

Pring must have driven the coaches mad with that

Every supporter knows what he should have done

Is he really that thick?   If so get rid asap because he will be incapable of learning.  He isn’t a kid anymore, just League 1 playing in Championship

 

[Alan Dicks]

Should have been 3 1, 10 seconds later it’s 2 2

Thats how we roll folks.

Pring cost us 3 points at end sadly. Another good performance on road but instead of 4-6 points we have 1 this week. More encouraging signs but more to learn too. 

We still got 1 point.

Pring has been one of our best players this season. 

Don’t you dare group him with Vyner!

Agree, you can’t put him in the same bracket as Vyner but he does make a valid point about the fact he is 24 now. He isn’t a kid. These players are not doing their jobs and all to often we are letting teams in at the last 

The amount of late goals we give away is frightening

It’s frustrating, but he’ll learn. 
 

this is what you get when your squads full of kids.

Thats not a knock, it’s where we are. Some harsh lessons will be learnt but hopefully he’ll grow from it

24 years old is not a kid. Liverpool field 17 year olds

Another goal conceded from a ******* cross!

Whose man?!

**** zonal marking, we have to man-mark the opposition out of easy chances like that.

Easy chance ?

[ChippenhamRed]

So frustrating. Pring could have done anything other than the one thing he did.

Kick it into Row Z.

Run for the corner.

Give it to Semenyo.

Commit GBH.

Streak.

Literally anything other than give the ball to them and that's the 30 seconds gone.

What a load of moaners on here and I should know was one... once,..... come on we trashed them today and they scrapped a lucky draw; yes we could have should have but well impressed from what I`ve seen today COME ON YOU REDS the future is good

[Selred]

Overall disheartening with the final result, but it’s becoming such a joy to watch City again. 

We play some really nice attacking football at times, we have some superb youngsters coming through, and have some really likeable players. 
 

We have progressed so far over the past year and a half under Nige. Eventually it’ll all click, with a good couple of recruits next Summer I think we could be a dark horse next summer. 
 

I am proud today to be a City fan, even if we didn’t get 3 points.

He’s been fantastic.  He’s cocked up big time here but he’s been one of the finds of the season.  Let’s not go massively overboard on him for a mistake.  Plenty have been made and plenty will continue to be made for the foreseeable.  But we’re building

So Pring wins scapegoat of the day then. I bet Max is relieved.

Who's made him a scapegoat. His stupidity cost us 2 points?  No one has said he had a bad game

Character building isn’t it supporting City?,! We really, really didn’t deserve to draw that.  Excellent performance and a hugely disappointing result. So many great performances personally thought H-NM was MothM. 

If only we had converted the great chances we created when ahead, the game would have been sewn-up at half time. 

Special shout out to the traveling fans. It’s going to be a long and miserable journey home.

NP is getting a team together, we looked very good again throughout the game today.  
 

 

I'm not sure the character building is worth the year it takes off your life every time you watch us. I don't want to be a strong character in a wooden box.

[richyy66]

Lots of positives. But the same issues keep appearing. Last minute goal or conceding from set pieces. Not good enough.

Get these silly mistakes out of system in a season when points don't really matter!

But if we have the same personnel in defence next season how can we be confident they won't carry on chucking goals away?

As Nigel said after Luton, we can't go on having to score at least 2 goals every game to get anything. Yet days later here we are again. I despair.

[ProfitInMyPocket]

Weimann and Pring both making mistakes on the break. Another really good performance considering what we were seeing maybe 2-3 months ago at home and away when everyone was calling for the manager's head. 

At least it is individual mistakes that are costing us and not the style or lack of effort on the pitch.

It may seem like two points dropped but you can't say we didn't go for it. 

I am really enjoying this team run their socks off and they will learn from these mistakes.  

COYR.

[The turtle]

Well that was a new inventive way to not win a game.

 

The kick in the nuts hurts, but its much less depressing when playing with purpose. 

Finally feels like there is a direction.

Well, Pearson was saying we don’t draw enough games. Someone’s misread that as a tactical instruction!

Oh believe me, i think hes way better than Vyner! Just dont think either are good enough to be regulars in the championship.

Being one of our better players this season isn’t saying a great deal either, lets be honest!

Guilty of thinking he was younger than he is to be fair, ok call it inexperience rather than youth

Ha ha for a moment there I thought you said "easy chance"

[BUTOR]

Yeah good performance and all that but it’s so deflating having to go through that inevitability every week.
