Match Day Thread Season 2023 - 2024 - Match #17 - P.N.E. Away

He's probably discounted Ugbo........

 

Who? Me?

 

25 mins gone we've had 7 chances to their nil. 3 on target.
Need to put one of these away.

 

Madley is a right prat.

Game getting out of hand and it's down to his piss poor control of the game and some bizarre non-decisions.

 

Collins gets his 5th yellow of the season and can't play in next game against Brom.

 

Preston winning 3.1 on bookings.

 

Need to get O'Dowda fit then.

 

No chance of O'Dowda.

Hope he doesn't switch Perry Ng across there like he did a few weeks back when Collins was out with an injury.

Leave Ng where he is and bring in the left footed Panzo as replacement for Collins.

 

Would be sensible. May not be so effective going forward but better to have a left footed left back.

 

Bugger. Second half syndrome strikes again.

 

Preston down to 10 men - Bradey just sent off.

 

Now a chance for us to up our game and get something from this.

 

4 subs on.

Panzo for McGuinness
Ugbo for Meite
Tanner for Bowler
Colwill for Ralls

 

Don't think we've got the nous or finesse to open up a packed 10 man defense, protecting a lead.

 

We thought it was all over. Grant to the rescue.

 

And then f<>k me. The oxygen stealer wins it.

 

I was all ready to rip into cataclysmic errors by McGuiness & Runnarson for that terrible goal and to bemoan the lack of nous and such a limp attempt to overcome 10 men but blimey where did that come from
and from our favourite posters talisman.

Well done City

 

Was it ever in doubt after my post 4 up?

Well done for the team playing to the final whistle.
With the chances we created, it shows our need for a natural finisher, or a bit more finishing practice by the front 4.

Any insight as to Etete's absence?

 

Oh, just realised, a correct score for me.

 

I thought I'd wasted my money on an outsider.............but then ............
