    Burnley are about three points behind us but Preston we have to beat surely.

    I'm sounding like Golfie and Reams now. I'm going to go and lie down.

    No, but the difference at other games, even midweek, has been nothing like 4,000. Well under 1000 if I remember rightly but Airman Brown will correct me/tell me off for saying that. ; - )

    funny thing was the excuses. Champs league on TV, it was cold, poor football, Cardiff are scary.

    But when we were playing at Selhurst in an era of much smaller crowds generally our gates were terrible.

    I can understand why you'd give a crowd out as lower than it was as a way of maybe fiddling expenses/income for tax reasons, but why would you add 3-4k to your attendance?

    Preston have been on a decent run of late, winning more games than us!

    Chris, it's not adding, it happens everywhere, if a season ticket holder doenst turn up, they are still included in the attendance.

    Definetly only 9,600 through the tunrstiles at Selhust - with over 1,000 of those given as free tickets to local schools.

    I understand the look on Jordans face as it was announced was an orange picture.
