Match Day Preston 2-0 Brighton

[TomPNE94]

we look such a good side at the moment, just completely nullified top of the league.

 

[TractorBoys]

Great result that. Exciting time for you guys. Can we have Hugill yet?

 

[SF_]

Comfortable win, Grayson got it spot on.

Alan Browne had a good game, the 'spoiler' role suits him, will run and battle all day.

Horgan is a player, took a while to get going but plenty of ability.

Callum Robinson is going to be worth a shit ton of money.

 

[Destruction]

Great result, been overdue a win at home.

Great result that. Exciting time for you guys. Can we have Hugill yet?

If the price is right.

 

[LeylandWhite]

We're fucking brilliant at the moment. A comfortable result like that without Pearson and Johnson just shows how good of a squad Grayson has put together. Huntington and Clarke were outstanding.

 

[TractorBoys]

If the price is right.

How much do you reckon that is?

 

[SF_]

How much do you reckon that is?

£2.5m-£3m I reckon

 

[TractorBoys]

We have no chance of Evans getting there, sadly.

 

[markwwfc1992]

Preston look very impressive, putting a lot of clubs with much bigger budget to shame.

 

[LeylandWhite]

Definetly, Grayson, Ridsdale and Hemmings are doing a brilliant job.

We've built a young squad on a shoe string and are playing some really good stuff.

 

[Rammy]

[mossypne]

We were, quite frankly, amazing today.

Was Maxwell on drugs yesterday? either that or the bang to the head he had in the first half actually had some lasting damage, he was all over the place. Probably the worst i've seen him since he joined and he kept a clean sheet and saved a penalty...

Comical how he conceded the penalty. Just ran at the ball and past it ffs.

If that's as poor as he gets then i'm happy.

 

[TomPNE94]

For a keeper that plays like he does, the only real fuck up that has cost us is at Wednesday. Impressive really.

I'm glad PNE won that one. Don't mind your club. Proper club and proper fans. Brighton have assembled a good team and have a good manager but their fans last season were caustic. Some of the vitriolic bile coming from sections of their fans was quite astonishing. Not the true supporters I am sure, but the happy clappers who came out of the woodwork AFTER the begging buckets of the Withdean days and suddenly turn up when they had a decent team to follow. A real bug bear of mine when 'fans' jump on the success bandwagon, who were happier to do something better with their time than support their club through tough times. Hope Preston get in the Play Offs and come up. It's lonely up here without any local teams to have bragging rights with. P.S. Thought you were brilliant against Arsenal and was pleasantly surprised how well you played.

It's rare i'll give credit to Burnley but it looks like you'll stay up with ease this year, Dyche gets on my tits at times but he's done a superb job with you.

Read that you were something like 5th in terms of making a net profit across the European leagues in the last financial year

Gives every other club which doesn't have parachute money or an owner willing to throw a fuckload of cash on players a bit of hope.

I make no secret of my personal feelings towards Dyche and the 'style' of football. Not a fan myself, that said he does get the best out of the group.
The board have managed our finances marvellously and yes we made a profit on the 2014/15 season of about £40 million, despite relegation. Last years net profits will actually even out at breaking even but 2016/17's we are set to make an even bigger profit of £60 million. Of course that can be improved based on where we finish. This based on accountants in the know connected with the club.
We've got 17 games to get 14 points (40 being the largely regarded target of survival) but I think 10 more points will be enough. Obviously the higher we finish the more money we get.
I very much think Preston have a good blueprint to follow in you have kept faith with your manager and it is reaping dividends. If you can get promoted with the framework you have used and can maintain that, as we have. There's no reason you can't mirror our success.
Best of luck for the rest of the season.

Ew. Don't like these good words from a dingle. Must be plotting something

Still made it into TOTW

Must have been some bad keeper performances at the weekend, Maxwell did his job but made hard work of it imo.

He's still quality though.

Brighton fans have always been like that, it's nothing new. There's just more of them now. They're a very weird group, with a 'holier than thou' attitude and a huge sense of entitlement. Even back when we gave them a home, and they still managed to turn that against us for being rude enough to ask for rent.
