    Bournemouth @ Deepdale 29/10/2011

    utter, utter rubbish. IMO PB ain't got a clue in terms of players or tactics. Consider; Alexander too old and not what we need in this team; Ashbee, ok but crocked; Turner, oh dear; Daley, runs around and gets nowhere, Tsoumou, despite scoring 3 he is rubbish, does he ever win a ball, a header...

    Walsall V PNE

    Again 1 point OK 3 great, lets hope so. 442 and if possible [as if ] a clean sheet!!! Anyone recall Steve Elliot from his PNE days I'm sure he went to Walsall......can anyone recall other players that went either way? 2-0 to the whites.

    Morecambe FC V PNE (JPT)

    This was a reasonable game and we scraped home.....just. Curtis, you are right, there were several things thrown at Roache including a bottle, this is just not on and I hope the thrower is on CCTV. Roache and the north ends fans had a good bit of banter last night, then the odd idiot spoils it...

    Leyton Orient V PNE

    Always had a soft spot for some of the less well off London clubs, LO being one of them. There is no easy match, we all know that and The Orient will be up for this one. Again a point will be ok, with 3 a great result. Lets not forget we will lose somewhere along the way, so if we do, we need...

    Article: Brentford V PNE

    This was a great result, but lets keep our heads down and not get carried away. Lets see where we are after Xmas and only then can we consider if we can get out of this league at the first time of asking. Yes I'm a Brown doubter - although I'm slowly changing - but he is shaping North End into a...

    Article: Brentford V PNE

    Pretty simple to me, if we are serious about getting out of this division we need to get something from this game, there will be tougher test to come. I would be happy with 1 point and delighted with 3. 442 with Ashbee starting ahead of Nicholson. I reckon 1-1.

    Charlton Athletic V PNE

    Tend to agree Plumber, push this competition to one side and think about the league. Wish I could say the same about the JPT, coming from Lancaster and with a few MFC contacts my life will be hell if we lose at the Globe! Bentley has got the Shrimps playing with spirit so it will be a tough one.

    Crossing the ball.

    At Deepdale and Div 1 & 2 grounds all around the country you will hear moans and groans at what seems to be poor play , wasted chances or an inability to cross. We need to take stock. England were rubbish, awful, boring and lacked IMO any get up and go. Clearly 100K+ per week is not enough to...

    Article: PNE v Yeovil Town | Football, Preston North End

    I hope 442, with the front 2 [Hume and Mellor] playing closer together....sorry Proctor has just not performed well enough to be included on Friday....little threat .....despite his one headed goal. so i reackon it should be Turner, Smith, Carlisle, McLean, Conner Mc, Parry, Coutts, Barton...

    Article: PNE v Notts County | Football, Preston, Notts County

    We generally perform better against the so called strong teams. Lets hope this continues on Saturday, I think it may. However we will need to get the ball and players in the box, too often we see a ball going in there with just one or two white shirts there, midfield need to get up and down the...

    One step back

    One step back

    Plumber...I reckon by the lenght of your articles you should have been a novelist! I'm not convinced by either PB or his team as yet. however, I'm desperate to be proved wrong, lets see where we are in 10 games, but my gut feeling is we will not be promoted this year. I expect 3 points on...

    Article: Chesterfield V PNE.

    Great result and it sounded like we controlled the game. This win will breed confidence going into saturday and to Notts a week on Saturday. UTW

    Article: Chesterfield V PNE.

    From the BBC it looks like 433, would have prefered your 442 selection Plumber. We need a win, Mr Brown needs a win or the heat will start to rise. I still lack confidence in PNE to put in a tough 90 mins and dominate the other side for significant periods. Someone, somewhere posted PBs win...

    Article: Scunthorpe United V Preston North End | Football

    Morgan and Carlisle worry me, again we looked wide open on Tuesday. I'll be ok with a draw from this one but hopeful of 3 points......anyway it will be off frozen pitch!
