League One Play-Off Final: Preston North End vs Swindon Town 24/05/2015 17:30pm

[James [bcafc]]

Congratulations Preston.

 

[BCFC Jordan]

Lovely jubbly.

Sweet, sweet karma.

The three best teams got promoted - no doubt about that.

 

[Ciderup]

To Mike, Krazy and AS, you have my sympathies fellas. Go again next season.
To all the Lillywhites, after finishing 3rd you deserve to be joining us in the Championship and I offer my sincerest congratulations. Well done lads.

Aye - a lot of you Vale fans who seem to have this raging dislike for PNE would have done the similar, and have done similar in previous PO campaigns.

We dislike Garner not PNE itself, I'm glad there up and we don't have to put up with his antics to be honest and fancy Swindon to be far weaker next season than PNE would have been had they stayed down.

Don't see the point of threads rubbing Swindon fans faces in it, they have some bellends but so do Bristol City/Port Vale/Anyone else. Must be gutting for their fans good or bad and doesn't really warrant having to read pages of Bristol fans tugging over their keyboards.

Well done PNE and unlucky Swindon all the top four were miles ahead and harsh on whichever missed out.

Congrats Preston.

5 in 2, or 6 in 3 for Beckford in the PO's this year.

Not to shabby that.

You clearly can't get your head around the situation and understand what we're saying.

There was NO, I repeat NO bad blood between the two sides before the game in November - then the events of that happened, and kick-started a bitterness between eachother.

I'm sure Swindon fans will be the first to admit they'd act the same towards us if we did that today.

Got it?

The game in November is a poor excuse really, yes it was annoying at the time, but I see Swindon as much as a rival as Sheffield United and any other league one team and had moved on after a few days, the crap on here and otib has been cringeworthy at times this season

It'd be true to say that the 'rivalry' has been furthered by us going toe to toe with each other for 3/4 of the season.

 

[Dave-Vale]

Aye - a lot of you Vale fans who seem to have this raging dislike for PNE would have done the similar, and have done similar in previous PO campaigns.

I would have posted once after the game to have a slight dig at Preston and Garner. I wouldn't have continually posted after every goal and spent time making pictures.

 

[JonBCFC]

Lol, port vale fans calling us cringey.. I'd dig up the majority of their match threads this season if I could be arsed... Worst fans in L1 they were voted wasn't it? Pipe down fellas

 

[JJH]

I would have posted once after the game to have a slight do at Reston and Garner. I wouldn't have continually posted after every goal and spent time making pictures.

Because you haven't been competing toe to toe all season with Preston, you aren't local rivals and you didn't have a game this year like ours in November.

And what is it with Vale fans having nicknames for PNE?

I've read both Reston and Preaton in this thread - and you say we're obsessed...

Indeed they were - I've learnt to take everything they say with a pinch of salt.

So glad Bristol City went up. Hopefully I won't have to read what their boring teenage fans have to shout about. You know, those ones that didn't post on here/TFF before this 1 good season.

I don't think we had a rivalry with Preston. Just a dislike of Garner and his antics. I myself have had a few run ins with their lot on here but that is more to do with their attitude towards Blackpool's disgusting owner which is a different story.

Oh and sorry about my nicknames for Preston. You know you're talking to teenagers when they have a pop at 1 word that you didn't quite type right.

 

[D_Murph#9]

Well done PNE! Amazing game!

Swindon - next season, next chance!

 

[JonBCFC]

And we have an exception with Thompson and his antics, I don't see the problem here.

Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooosh

Y'know - I didn't post on here before about 8 months before the end of TFF due to the fact that I didn't know the forum until someone linked it on OTIB.

But - I was no stranger to football forums before, I had been a Member on OTIB for 7 years previous to me joining on here.

And as for the teenager insults - when something is used against you that isn't quite true it's amusing, not upsetting

Best of luck for next season xxx

Driving through Swindon earlier I came across 'Sam FM'. They told me 'What is the difference between Sheffield United and Swindon Town? One is going to Wembley. Sam FM supporting the Robins all the way'!

Just as the fourth goal went in.

Today would have been sweet enough, but knowing we're replacing them Blackpool c*** is the icing on the cake.

May they rot in hell.

Will it not?

I don't know if you seen the title odds for the Championship next season - but we were listed as 4th favorites.

Make of that what you will - but either way, even if we didn't recruit and strengthen in the Summer, I'd be confident we'd have more than enough to stay up next season.

But anyway - this thread isn't about us, or you, so stop trying to compare us, because the matter of the fact is, whatever statistics you throw at us, as it currently stands, we're a division above you

So - back on topic...
