It's about the squad, plenty on the bench to change it round if we need to, let's look for the positives, let's have a go at them.

 

[TheFlashingBlade]

Any kind soul know of a “cast-able” and reliable stream? DMs appreciated!

Another one in need here please . . .

 

[nickwr37]

Me too!

Securely has gone AWOL again

Yep, pain and await the coverage...

 

[Blade]

Me too!

Securely has gone AWOL again

Me three please!

 

[Sheffsteel]

Been a great match so far, both teams look lively.

Only 7 minutes played but Brewster and McBurnie both already had decent efforts on goal and came close to scoring.

 

[FinBlade]

We are more active and driving forward in attack and I really like it. Keep it up we'll do good tonight.

Agree but what’s helping us is that PNE are open and going for it. It’s as though the PNE manager has said “no more 0-0’s”

It’s been a really entertaining game so far and weirdly for a team that loves a 0-0 you feel a goal will happen soon.

 

[jono_t2000]

I’m usually wrong but I think this will go south quickly.

Berge is no protector and Norwood dictates play. Preston shut him down and that’s us done if we can’t get the ball to the forwards.

Playing out just as you predicted. Midfield being overrun having that extra striker

They have double our possession

I was hoping I would be wrong

 

[Jan Age]

If you want to play Brewster you have to drop one of Mcburnie, Ndayie or Berg….

 

[FallowfieldBlade]

That parrot for PNE looks a threat

He’s playing on bashams shoulder

 

[Bobby b]

Basham has tried dribbling it out a couple of times now, that's ok if he has cover behind but he hasn't and its put us in a bit of trouble

 

[Sheffsteel]

PNE starting to dominate but our defence has looked very solid. We need to get some possession to take the wind out of their sail.

So far PNE done most of the attacking but we look more dangerous going forward.

 

[Tom Bott]

Looks to me like Hecky intends to grab the first goal

With a Stuart McCall assist

 

[Antarctic Monkey]

Any streams?

Has Bash got a wooden leg though ?

 

[jono_t2000]

How long will it take Hecky until he realizes he's got this one wrong

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

This game will not be a good watch for the neutral.

While we've won two away games on the road it still feels like we're holding back a bit on our travels. (See Berge)

Meanwhile Preston are just ultra negative. Only conceding twice in 9 games sounds amazing but only scoring 3 times just shows you how much they focus on not conceding.

Can't see either team scoring more than 1 goal if any at all.

Going for a 0-0 draw.

We've got 1.

 

[HarryHaslam]

Some player this lad, come on blades!

 

[Antarctic Monkey]

ILLIMAN

 

[Chadders]

streams anyone? hesgoal not working.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

How long will it take Hecky until he realizes he's got this one wrong

As long as a piece of string

 

[Antarctic Monkey]

Just a clean sheet for league 1 wes nah please

 

[Belvedere Blade]

GOAL for Nydai. Come on you BLADES

 

[Sheffsteel]

Brilliant goal from N’Daeye,

Receives the ball on the edge of the area with 3 defenders closing in on him. He could have taken a rushed shot but showed great composure to sell the defender a dummy, then dribbles past 2 defenders and smashes it in off the post.

We’ve not played that well but have some PL quality players who can score from nothing. PNE have played really well with loads of attacks but created nothing, our defence has been superb today.

We should have scored a 2nd there,,,so unlucky.

[Tom Bott]

Currently 7 points clear of 4th place

 

[Camden Blade]

I was hoping I would be wrong

You are.

 

[Boxer Blade]

When's Hecky going to realise he doesn't know a thing about football?
