    Did we offer Clarke a deal?

    Doubt it as I never heard we were bidding for him

    Preston doing more than us whenthey have the ball. Our build up play is too slow.

    Still 0-0 so still in it but we’re second best all over the place - too many people losing their individual battles and Preston are boxing us in well. It’s mainly the fact they aren’t much good that means they have failed to capitalize on how easily they are regaining l possession whenever we have it.

    Not sure what needs changing, but Jones needs to tweak or shuffle something.

    Probably not helped that the last two games we've played have comprises us having about 30 per cent possession. 

    We don't play well with more of the ball

    Nice bit of play from Charlton, Brownie saying we need a bit of Dynamic play,

    I wonder if we could swap Bell and Mesik. Mesik gives me more of a centre back vibe than a full back.

    Preston's press is is a lot better than ours. It gives them so much more time on the ball.

    Good ref - spotted more cheating

    We are being a bit ponderous today. I do like the look of Mesik, seeing him for the 1st time this season. He looks a quality addition.

    Quality from Jones 
    Centre-back, centre-forward ... he can do it all.

    If he puts his mind to it he could probably run 100m quicker than a Chinese robot dosed up on WD40.

    Let’s hope he doesn’t get injured 




    He'd keep going.

    Ooh, just past the post!

    We're having a number of chances.

    Jones would have buried that.

    Lovely cross that was from TC, really well done from Leaburn to get ahead of his marker

    They’re playing a high line and pressing well, while we seem to lack the speed of thought or quality of touch to play round them, at least today.

    Meanwhile, Leaburn’s having a decent game and we have pace off him. I’d just focus on hitting Leaburn for 10 mins and get Carey, Grant, TC making runs off the shoulder, see if we can expose the high line with a good old fashioned long ball flick on.

    Not sure whatl was more frustrating,  the 20 minute wait for a beer at the so called bloody Fast Bar or the 35mins of tedious walking football.

    TC hasn’t got long to score in front of the Preston fans he rejected

    Constant and persistent distribution - 

    It's very clear Eustace has ordered his team to 'play' like a niggly, horrible, filth. 

    Football deserves us to win today
