Was it his hamstring he tore in January? Could be a re-tear if so. I do still think he was carrying something on Saturday for Wells to start ahead of him personally.

All gone very quiet hasn’t it

Absolute legend Wael hahaha brilliant mate best owner in the land who needs a stadium with four stands anyway !!! In Wael and Joey we trust FTG ????

Not at all, I’m fully in agreement with the negativity. It was woeful and I wouldn’t want to watch it every week. But I do think a lot of it is the occasion. Everyone’s looked forward to it for months, lots of expectation, then we get to the day itself and the weather is shit, freezing cold, we draw and play worse than probably at any point at home last season. That definitely makes it a lot worse.

Loads of fans when the fixtures came out - “Preston first game, that’ll be tough, they’re our bogey team, always struggle against them, do well to win that one” Loads of fans when we don’t win - “ffs!!!!! Can’t believe we didn’t win!!!!!!”

Negatives - Atmosphere. Weather. Excitement. How everyone bar Vyner and Dickie played! Positives - Vyner and Dickie. Would he surprised if we have a home performance that slow and lacklustre again. All the negatives people are mentioning were referenced by Pearson post match, so he himself knows and wasn’t happy with what he saw. Everyone, bar the two CBs, had a bad game, and we didn’t lose it. First game of not, that’s a good thing. I’d rather start poorly and grow into ourselves than start well and fade.

Playing, maybe. Doing well and impacting games, time will tell.

Hmm maybe. A mixture of things. Remember he got put left wing a fair bit the season before last, and was playing through injury too. Happy we got him off the wage bill, no hesitation. But I certainly don’t think he was ‘stealing a wage’ or ‘didn’t care’ or ‘didn’t try enough’ or anything like that, confirmed by Pearson too.

2-0 down at home in their first league, made a double sub after 20 mins. Oh Lee

Palmer has been excellent. Amazing what actually playing in a side that suits you can do.

Aka, they either forgot or didn’t know.

Very surprised to not see Tanner mentioned at all. He absolutely killed us yesterday. Cornick made a number of good runs, first half especially, and Tanner either wouldn’t pass at the right time, or at all, and just cut back and passed backwards. Both full backs were very poor but Tanner in particular looked like he never knew what to do which is off for him.

I saw him coming out of the Lansdown stand as I was leaving. Seemed like a paying customer rather than in the Heineken lounge or anything. Very odd.

Just walked past Tomas Kalas coming out the Lansdown stand ?

Far too many 6/10s. Dickie the only one who’s had a good game.

He looked injured after 5 minutes. Definitely carrying something into the game. Silly really.

But don’t forget mate….in his words, Rovers are ‘real, and ‘authentic’ and we aren’t ?????

4500% possession yet scraping a win against a team who will get relegated with one of the best teams in the division. That’s Martin-ball baby.

That’s OTC, Francois, Kadji et al leaving before the window shuts one way or another

It’s a brilliant video and message, but comes two days after saying they won’t be accommodating disabled fans in the away end for the foreseeable future….doesn’t sit too well with me.

Would say they’d have to be announced tomorrow, still nothing on the website. Quite odd considering you’d imagine a decent amount of kids will get players name and number on their kits.

Blimey, not £500k!!!

Would be v surprised if the Scott knock news is to throw Preston off scent

I’d go to war for him. What a leader. It’s as simple as that
