Got the 3 points,thats the most important thing ,delighted to be in 6th spot going into the international break.
I dont think we look like a team who will finish in the play offs if I'm honest ,but once we are challenging I will be happy with that

Wait till we hit a Purple Patch, we ain't seen nothing yet, onwards and upwards.
URrrss!!!!!

Moses Adeboajo switches way too often off. Maybe he could be used in another position. Central midfield perhaps: He`s got a vicious shot in him.

Well that was worth getting soaked for again, but bloody nerve racking in the end, was in total control until we gifted that first goal, lot of sloppy passing again but an excellent come back again, chair on fire again & agree with some Austin & Dykes up front

Started a post a few weeks ago saying we won't go up if we can't stop conceding two goals a game. So much for Dunne being the answer! So slow and just bulled off the ball for their equaliser and Deing been low on confidence in recent weeks. All very well Warbs saying he didn't want to put Barbet at left back because he wanted to keep the 3=5=2 shape but Willock was exposed defensively and nullified as an attacking threat. We got out of jail today but we need to play a lot better than that if we are to go up via the play offs.

BTW, was the Dykes header genuinely off-side? Couldn't see it properly.

Everyone got their money's worth yday , team has many flaws but exciting to watch . Preston can have 2 as long as we get 3 . Good position to be in as a couple if weeks ago we looked like a mid table team .

Just seen it again shaggy and you could be right , if he stays on his line they probably don’t score that , he got caught in no mans land a bit there , I still think Dunnes is the bigger error.

I saw that as Dunne's error 100% and i waa sitting almost in line with that in the SAR stand. Dunne just had to be stronger and want that ball more. Yes, Dieng could have stayed on his line, but the forward would then have either got control of the ball or Dunne could have fouled him in the box.

What a nerve racking half. That sub for Willox just made it worse and invited them forward !!

A win is a win tho

I agree that it gave the PNE team less to defend when he Willock was subbed, but would also say that Dickie did not help with his forward runs after we went ahead - he shoukd have done that at 2-1 down!

Just one question, why do you call Willock Willox?

I am happy to be challenging fir the top 6 whilst occupying a place in it.

Can we stay in it? Well yes, if we can sort out the defence and hopefully get Wallace and Field back in the side.

Vicious shot like the one that almost hit the upper loft 10 yards wide of the goal

Yeah I know. Iv called him that a few times. Gotta get it right next time

No, more like the one he scored in one of his first matches with us

Leroy Griffiths scored with a wonder shot against Chelsea in a friendly but was truly sh-ite in competitive games.

Looking at the highlights it looks like he was being played onside by the right back VAR would have cleared that one up.
