Is it me or were they pretty poor.
Of course a lot could be down to us playing well but for a club on a good run they didn’t impress and I was expecting a tougher battle in a game which we largely had control of.
I’m amazed they’re as high up as they are.

Preston have and always will be shite.
The fact they’re just outside the play offs is a frightening summary of just how rancid we have been this season.

They weren’t great, but I’ve seen worse in Brum away, but most of all Swansea at home. How we didn’t end up with three points against Swansea still pains me.

I’m amazed they’re as high up as they are. My lad was there in the away end a few weeks back with the Blackburn fans and he said that Preston were pretty poor that day.

730 Just on my train back home
Preston fans online & more importantly those I’ve spoken to after the game .. disappointed with their own team , but several face to face ( always a better test ) complimentary of us , & wondering how on earth we’ve managed to get ourselves in such a mess & mid to playoff material
Told them they’ve not watched us defensively ..

They were good down here when they were flying early doors in the season. Preston have always been one of them teams where you never know what you’re going get on the day.

Nah When OG is your joint top scorer in March it's obvious where the problem is As for PNE same sort of standard as most Championship sides but probably a smaller budget than many so fair play to them

They’re on a tiny budget.
Like the rest of this league they’re piss poor.

Really we’re miles from the business end .. but need shooting for some insipid performances resulting in us having to scramble around at the wrong ends for points

Will Keane has got 12 in 28 this season. I imagine that’s a big part of the reason they are doing well. He only needs one more to do better than he’s ever done in this league.

Rotherham this season are an example of a side who aren’t cut out for the division. Stoke on the other hand are just one of about 8-10 who are fairly shite. We are 4 points away from 13th and only 6 away from top half.

True Lack of goals means we were never going to threaten the business end
But defensive frailty ( no left side ) has meant we’ve lost games we should have drawn at worst and put us in the mess
If you don’t offer a goal threat you encourage teams - and they get plenty of encouragement down our left
Woeful team building in the summer / January

They were utterly dreadful and had Average Alex Neil's finger prints all over them. That said, take absolutely nothing away from our performance. We were superb from start to finish.
Honest to god, sat in the away end I had no doubts whatsoever that we wouldn't win.
There was only ever one team in it and one team trying to win it and it certainly wasn't them.

Hence why what we’ve done in it in the last 6 years is so frustrating.

Will someone takes Scouse's phone off him Home now ..to find multiple posts with no message 🥵🫣 I blame trying to reply on here and quote using an iphone on the move compared to an iPad at home , honestly it’s like chalk and cheese .. that’s my excuse anyway and I’m sticking to it ..though I’ll also use keeping one eye on warring Blackpool and Wigan fans on my train back in my defence ..going through the list of 6% beers in the last place probably didn’t help either , so perhaps the Preston fans were in fear after all Apologies to all 🍺🍺

They’re no different than 90% of the teams in this league. Swap shirts and I wouldn’t be able to tell.
We regularly outplay teams we are just shit at each end, sort that out and we would go up or certainly be in the mix.
I also don’t fear the teams likely to come down next season.
Competitive but jeez it’s poor, I can only imagine L1 and L2.
