Preston Match Thread

[Leigh]

I wish Ali would stop being so confident that Dublin, Dabizas and Scowcroft are bound to score from free kicks/corners. :roll:

 

[Wellard]

Not a lot on the bench....Wright?

I say get him on now !

CL has been saying that there is less pressure away from home so its got to be worth a go. Get some urgency in there. Scowy is a twat

 

[highland fox]

Still a problem with 'Delivery' into the Box it seems....

 

[Leigh]

Keown booked.

 

[Leigh]

Players not playing to the whistle, as usual.

 

[Leigh]

Ahh! I want to hurt Ali, doesn't he understand that Scowcroft, Dublin and Dabizas are rubbish at attacking headers!! Of course not, he's like every other pundit who looks at names and says 'oh he should be able to do this'.

Fair comment.

I am refusing to listen to Radio Leicester... not only is so depressing and absolutely terrible commentry, but it seems whenever I switch over we concede so I'm hoping that by listening to Five Live we score a couple. ..

 

[LufbraFox]

3 minutes to go

 

[pipes]

errrrr forest scored.... :x

 

[Leigh]

FT: 1-1

 

[LufbraFox]

Full-time, draw is a decent result i reckon

 

[Leigh]

We stay 15th, only alphabetically though.

 

[highland fox]

A point not a lot of use but like I said they have a very good home record so I suppose a draw is a good result.Looking forward to MDV playing and the banishing of Scowcroft.What would have you preferred a win today or a win on Tuesday?

 

[step]

PNE have also won 10 from the last 12 games. so they are on a roll at the moment.

 

[lcfcrules]

would have taken the point if it was offered before the match, so i m ok with the result...

I would take a win today and a draw then win on penalties on tuesday.

whoever you are,whether you are a City fan or a PNE fan you have to concede that preston are a shittier team than Leicester, so the fact that we weren't good enough to beat them is hard to take.
the only thing we can do now is move on.
Personally, [despite what that knob-itch Chandler would have you believe] I didn't want MA to walk out on us, I didn't want a change of manager mid -season, but he did, he has left us & i'm now 100% behind CL, he is the now & he is our future, whatevever that may be.
I don't expect any miracles, i'm delighted that we walked off the park with some pride and at least 1 point today.
As far as i'm concerned this season, at this stage, is about finishing above the sheep~shaggers.
so if you'll all join me in rousing chorus of:

forever and ever.
we'll follow our team.
we're Leicester City,
we rule supreme.
we'll never be mastered,
by no derby ba$tard,
we'll keep the Blue flag flying high!!!

all together now!!

As a North End supporterI find it rather strange why any Leicester fan would have such a superiority complex. For what its worth, I think over the three games between the two sides this season we have dominated the games and deserved more than just one win.

The fact you have 'name' players like Dabizaz, Dublin and Keown does not make you a better team. It just shows the lack of intelligent management you have endured since you fell out of the premiership. We have the likes of Mawene at the back who are light years ahead in terms of ability. Williams is the only player in your squad I'd want at North End - the rest are fairly uninspiring.

North End may not have been on form today, but at least we showed some will to win. We badly missed our left winger Lewis, who has been in terrific form in the last few weeks. But we attacked and Taylor had to make several saves. What exactly did our keeper have to do?

Its fine to have the big team mentality... hope it keeps you happy. But I really do think your style of play and your current playing staff simply do not add up to promotion anytime soon.

Good luck with your season, but fans like Macky should really lose the chip of their shoulders. You will need an excellent manager to get promoted with that squad, and I don't think Levein and his SPL signings are going to be the answer. But as I said, best of luck.

 

[Macky]

thanks for responding Mr 'strike-a-light', i'v not got a chip on me shoulder, i'm just pissed!!!
it's lovely to have you with us!
