v Preston North End (a) - 21/11/25, 8:00pm ko Sky TV

[RTM08]

Pratt clearly wasn't considered good enough at the start of the season or he wouldn't have been shipped out to Chorley, so I'm not expecting anything from him. 

This is where (again) the really lazy transfer strategies begin to hurt, and I'm fully expecting to get a pasting. We have been absolutely outmanned every time we've played a physical team this season, and this will be the same.

Preston 3-0 Rovers

Cantwell clearly been put in dry storage to be flogged in January.

What a depressing club we really are. 

Unless Cantwell is faking injury (which I don't know if he he would as he seemed to be enjoying his stint at captain) I think he's genuinely injured.

There’s something going on with Pickering. He’s been effectively frozen out. Not the best player we’ve had, but is a shoe in here surely?

Above the wage threshold and being shunted towards the exit door.

well here we go,don`t forget we are still in a 15 year transition🙂

Yeah but you're currently paying him - might as well use him. 

[RTM08]

Already starting where we left off with the pointless Miller throws.

[davulsukur]

According to Sky, we're the worst team in the championship for scoring goals in the first 15mins.

Cos he's 5'8" and slow. 

Pickering has never let us down at LCB before to my memory. And has great experience at this level - something we sorely lack. 

[davulsukur]

We are fucking dreadful.

[Exiled_Rover]

That was a delicious ball in from Alebiosu - we have to start winning some bloody headers. 

[Tugayslongwalkoff]

Has somebody told that Miller guy he’s good at long throws? Absolute waste of possession. We’ll not get one solitary goal from his throws this season. Dire.

He is quite good at them, but for some reason we put all of our tall lads at the back post. He can't reach them there. 

[RTM08]

We are unbelievably sloppy in every area of the pitch. Nothing is ever measured or controlled, just pinging about and hoping for the best.

Pears has been a bit suspect with his passing/ clearances 

[G Somerset Rover]

Looks a bit like men’s vs u18s at the moment.

So are two handed pushes legal now? PNE have pulled out a couple tonight and obviously Derby were disgusting for it. 

[Tom]

Feels like we are hanging on slightly already need to get a grip of it 

[RTM08]

Morishita is just too lightweight - that might be the most embarrassing way I've ever seen anyone lose possession.

[bazza]

How come when you push someone over it's not a foul?

[RevidgeBlue]

Alebiosu looks back on form after being inexplicably off it 2nd half v Bristol and against Derby.

Put the fishing rod away.

Can we stop the game because Yuki lost his contact lense? Interesting 

[simongarnerisgod]

not much cohesion from us🤒
