v PNE (h) - 4/12/21

[booth]

It's bad conditions but a waterlogged pitch doesn't make you pass to invisible men, or make you unable to clear a ball effectively.

[yankfan]

Not sure what game the ref is watching.

Midfield isn’t winning any second balls

Yep. As I thought. I don’t rate the bloke but we need a lump like Gallagher up there today to give us something to aim at.

Still, we need to pull our fingers out. They seem to want it more than us today. What further incentive do we want than to shut up noisy neighbours and to solidify our play-off place?!

Worryingly second best so far, not got going at all.

However it’s encouraging that we are still level 

[Fraserkirky]

Wake up Ryan

[booth]

We're looking poor apart from the occasional counter attack. Can't blame the elements on everything.

[Fraserkirky]

All three of the midfielders have been pathetic, they don’t fancy it

Can't help feeling it's only a matter of time before we concede, even though Preston aren't great. I've read this script before.

[booth]

Something to cheer about, Newcastle in front against Burnley.

[Tom]

Ref is a total nob

[Gav]

The weather conditions are beating us here, spoiling our passing game. 

[Cherry Blue]

Refs a complete idiot 

[booth]

Mowbray gets a yellow card.

 

[G Somerset Rover]

Get Johnson on at half time - at least he’ll get stuck into a few of ‘em.

[Fraserkirky]

This Ref hates us

[yankfan]

Not sure what was worse that half, the pitch, the red or our play. 

[booth]

Referee is a right prick.

How is this ref still in a job? 

[Exiled in Toronto]

Definitely need to swap Johnson for one of Buckley or Rothwell. I’d also bring Dolan on instead of Khadra.

[Bigdoggsteel]

The weather is killing us, simple as. That being said our passing has been poor

Agreed and was thinking the same

We’e also been beaten to nearly every second ball. The conditions suits them.

Not sure wing backs make much sense either. It’s not like they’re able to carry the ball up the flank in these conditions. 
 

Dolan to pressure the back line of PNE and force mistakes.
