The real view of Preston, kindly donated by their twin city Barnsley.

This was the view from my Preston pal:


I just watched the highlights of today’s match.....how the f*ck did we win that? Not that I’m complaining.
 
"Still not sure the value of repeatedly wasting time when it’s all very blatent"

Some of the time-wasting by PNE was pure pantomime at times.

Act 2, Scene 2: ‘The Substitution’
4th official holds up board to announce player OFF/ON.
Subbed Player sees the board out the corner of his eye but pretends to not have seen it. Trots nonchalantly in opposite direction. [Crowd bays at him in anger]. He turns to the board, points at himself and mouths the word “me?” in mock surprise. Realising he’s about to be subbed, gives a shrug of “why me? How can this be right?”, looks around at other players. Grudgingly starts to leave the pitch at walking pace. Stops halfway to pull up his socks and adjust his shin pads and carries on walking. Double-high-5’s the oncoming player and has a chat with him to waste more time.

Act 2, Scene 3: ‘The Keeper Kicks The Ball’….etc , etc…
 
I’m fed up of seeing teams like Preston come to the Lane and succeed with anti-football.

Cynical time wasting, rolling about on the floor and pretending you don’t understand what the ref is saying.
It’s shit and not something I want to pay to see.

Norwich, Bolton and now Preston to name just some seen at the Lane this season. I despise them and their brand of football. I rejoice in the fact Bolton look like going down and I’ll rejoice when Preston either don’t make the play-offs or if they do fail to go up.

The comment that we were like that under Warnock is hogwash. We played a high tempo in your face kind of game. We gave it and took it. We didn’t feign injuries like I’ve seen from these teams this season and we weren’t short of some quality players.

I’m more pissed off today at the antics of their so called players than the actual result. It fucks me off big time. I’ll take a defeat when the opposition tries to win the game playing football. Not Preston’s or Norwich’s way.

Bending the ear of the ref all game, rolling about on the floor, cynical fouls and blatant time wasting. Preston fans might be happy to pay to watch that but I’m not.

Hope they fail to get in the play-offs and next season join their equally despiseable neighbours Bolton in League One where they belong.

It was touch and go as to who were the biggest cheating bastards to appear at the Lane this season but I think due to a helping hand from the referee yesterday, Preston nicked it. The ref won't need to go to the lav for a fortnight, he had that much piss taken out of him by the PNE players yesterday.

Extra points go to the guy who moonwalked off the pitch when he was substituted.

Also add this. We get a free kick on the edge of their box whilst losing. Ref gets spray out. Billy decides he wants to get involved with some of their players in a bit of argy bargy. Ref walks across to his linesman, they confer, calls the offending players across for a lecture, more time wasted. Free kick taken, Duff puts it into row Z on the Kop. The lack of discipline from some of our players at times puts my teeth on edge.

Fair play to Gary Sinclair for his role in drawing attention to this. “Substitution for the visitors: coming off...eventually...number 11 Daniel Johnson...”
 
Norwich-esque time wasting cheating twats as on several other occasions this season we let the pantomime villains off happened way too many times now & we never learn . At least they acknowledge they were shite and yes they got the points , but paying £30 to watch your shower of time wasting shiteness your welcome to it
