Match Day Thread Preston v Southampton, Saturday, 02nd May 2026, 12:30 KO - Live on Sky TV

[Le Tissier's Laces]

Matchday. Pressing.

Matchday at the Lilywhites, we will beat this load of sh1te.

Stafford services. Think I actually prefer early KO's for the north west, makes getting past the West Midlands much less of a ****.

As stated earlier, first game for quite a while. Good news for all. My wife of 50+ years is coming with me. In that time she’s been to maybe 25 matches and Saints won every one. I know how to treat a girl. Second date I took her to The Dell to see Saints v York in Div 2. 2-1, Bobby Stokes with both. Preston may be a step up! 3-1 Saints. No problem.

Mrs OSS has been to three Saints matches over 55 years, Hull, Everton, while heavily pregnant, and Blackburn. Never seen a win. Wanted to know why you sat in the stands! That was enough for her!
Setting off at 9 for hopefully easy 2 hour drive.

As expected, sounds like lots of no-shows on the coaches.

Matchday. The End.

At Preston.
It's ****ing freezing.

Whatever happens today this season has been ****ing brilliant - highs, lows, despair, elation, light shows, Wembley, wonder goals, a manager who only blinks once a day and many other things. The first ten games seem like a lifetime ago, maybe even a different season.

Hopefully we can round it all out with a win.

Well, we do have the little matter of the playoffs...

True. I can't seem to focus on those until this game is out of the way though

I know exactly what you mean. Play offs belong in the 'early next season' fixture list

 

[Libby]

4 hours with a stop pretty good going.

Not sure it's shorts weather tbh.

 

[LincolnSaint]

£7 a round and a 50p pool table. It's 2001 in Preston. Happy days

A few glory hunters going awol, sad that we lost the chance of the autos. It still is important that we get the right play off position, so a lot to play for.

The season has only been brilliant since the end January, and a few games in November.

 

[Libby]

Got a feeling the unbeaten run comes to an end today. Reckon we'll subconsciously drop off slightly and we'll lose an entertaining game 3-2.

Insurance bet placed.

Insurance bet - good call

They’re all in the back of Libby’s motor.
