Preston North End home match thread

[The Nest Egg]

Sykes and Conway on, Cornick and Wells off 

[Daverenniestash]

Leko and Eisa are spoiling deadpools party! COYR

[Spike]

Really ugly looking attacking momentum until those subs came on, good timing in those changes, allowed a break for the lads.

Pring been off his game today in terms of giving the ball away cheapily

[The Nest Egg]

This isn't standard Prestonball we are seeing here, they are playing genuinely good stuff

He's put himself around a lot tho and made some key tackles

Looking very tidy…

Yeah I'd agree, maybe not so hot going forward but been doing a great job in his defensive duties.

Bit early. It's a marathon not a twix.

Probably, along with ‘we go again next week’, ‘ you can’t tell anything until 10 games have been played’, ‘plenty of time left in transfer market’.

We need to be careful here, Preston are looking to overload us now, this is where we could capitalise on the counter but we're at a big risk if they catch us out.

Very nice attacking move from us there, very unlucky but a great counter.

[Red Cloud]

yep, the usual thuggery associated with PNE is missing from their game for some reason, I'm sure it'll return if playing "real football" fails to get them points though

[BCFC Rich]

Vyner my MOTM

[MelksRed]

Vyner shirt pulled in thr box. ...thier freekick? 

[Spike]

As someone who still felt that at the end of the season Zac still had mistakes in him, I'll be the first to say he's been Man of the Match today and if he can keep those issues out of his game as he has today he's going to be very hard to push out of the team. Credit to him.

How has Williams played?

with energy but at times lack of accuracy, giving the ball away again.

Had a good last five minutes or so, played some solid through balls

Ok, not standout, quietly effective at a push

[MelksRed]

1-1

[cidercity1987]

Very poor defending there

[City_USA]

Bollox

[bexhill reds]

That was a hand ball. Right in front of the ref too. 

[old_eastender]

Terrible defending allowing Keane to turn in the box and score

[!james]

We can't say it's not been coming.

That has been coming for a while

[The Nest Egg]

Been coming. We still seem scared of being in the lead. Held out longer than we usually do but still a shame to see it 

[Slippin cider]

Ahhh Borrocks 

[Spike]

Handball by Preston, not given, they score directly from it. ******* shit referee and same thing as always, not getting a hold of the ball in the last 10 minutes!
