I'm trying desperately to find the enthusiasm to do the match thread tonight, the last few weeks have not been easy for any of us. 2-1 defeat at best. If able there will be the match thread from 6.45.
However I'm out this coming Saturday with Mrs RM and guests, so I will not be able to complete the match thread against Reading.
No optimism for me tonight after the way we capitulated second half at Fulham, Preston are playing well, so I expect them to win comfortably if they score first. We have to score first, as once we go behind and start chasing the game, we're left horribly exposed at the back
Just marking time until its official. Am hoping for a glimmer of hope but expect capitulation. The season has been a shambles from the beginning and neither the owner, the management or the squad are good enough. Makes you cry
boggzy ........get in your car mate and go. If your luck is like mine, if you don't go you are sure to miss something good like a win........I've changed my mind, stay where you are.
I don't think Riga will do this, and I take FA's point about maintaining a stable back five, but I think we need fresh blood and my team for tonight would be: Hendo Motta Tex Lennon Young Ba Cousins Harriot JBG Lookie Mak
The three behind Mak would be encouraged to tuck in and interchange, and the fullbacks would be charged with getting forward and creating the width. If Cousins isn't fit, I'd put Poyet in there as extra protection for the back four.
I see from our Website in the PRESTON Away ground review, that in 1975 we beat Preston to get promotion and that the goal scorers were Goldthorpe . Hales and a spot kick from Bob Curtis !!! They can't get anything right these days .......... .

Can't see anything other than another defeat as Preston are playing well. Score is irrelevant as our goal difference is so bad it doesn't matter. Lost hope and interest I am afraid the whole shooting match from owner through to useless players is rotten to the core.
Popped into a Preston barber's shop for a short b&S .. guess what ? .. the barber was a PNE season ticket holder .. we cheesed off the other chappies waiting for a trim by having a right good chat about all things football whilst he 'attended to me' one hair at a time it seemed like ((:>) .. his opinion ? .. PNE don't score many but have a superbly organised defence .. he reckons IF IF IF we can score early we could well come away with a result .. I told him I bet he told that to all the passing oppo fans just to get a good tip .. thing is, the prospect of us scoring early and hanging on to a lead are as remote as Dianne Abbot or Jo Brand becoming Miss Great Britain
but seriously .. Who knows if the Charlton v Rotherham or that v Hull/Huddersfield will turn up ..

Depends on how you define "Great"... But then again, I can talk.

Well we couldn't break down a poor defense on Saturday, but if nothing else, were unpredictable.
Edit: I love it when footy knowledge gets you perks.

You know we are one down without even listening, you also know that we cannot recover from going behind.
Let's just hope it doesn't happen too early - that way we can keep the score between 3 and 6.
