Terrific performance that - loads of Labore all over the pitch. POTM could easily be one of about five players. 

Great start to the weekend…⚪️🔵

I have to live among these Nob Enders, thankfully tonight all I can hear is the sound of silence.!!!

Baradji looks a unit but seems to have gone to the Tavares school of lazy possession...

He's only played about 20 minutes, give him a chance.

North Ends big day out and the stadium was half empty with 10 mins to go.

PNE have been in a false position all season. They’re bottom half dross, but good to see they got excited ahead of this game.

Clear red card at the end, for the foul or the foul and reaction, take your pick, but with this referee I’m surprised he even blew for a free kick.

Surprised people were giving the midfield and Montgomery specifically a slagging at half time, I thought we controlled about 80% of that match  

Thought Montgomery had a good game...seemed a long time ago we won a derby game.

At a properly run club you thank Hedges for his services and let him go at the end of the season. He's 30 now, 31 before the start of the new season and has always flattered to deceive.

Here he'll get a new contract if he fits in the wage structure. 

I thought he was excellent tonight & is probably having his best season at Rovers so far…🤷‍♂️

[Cherry Blue]

They should have been down to ten men. Whiteman's a dirty git. Tronstad celebrating goal with his fist to fans, Miller's blackout goal, Ismael expressing himself physically at the end all good to see. We looked good tonight!

Very lenient ref. Would have been a sending off there at the end in a Premier League game.

Thoroughly deserved win, didn't expect it but we were far the better team. Must mention Hedges, a revelation lately.

Team visibly tiring towards the end but Preston unable to take any advantage. Limp performance from them

Given it was very physical towards the end I'd have given Guaye more minutes than that but clearly he's on the outer.

I find Morishita takes a while to get into a game, but when he gets in gear he's a class above...Him and Yuki don't stop.

Baradji looks very interesting....hope he stays fitm

Real sink or swim moment for Pratt tonight, big lad, good in the air, does have the odd lapse in concentration though, never seen him against anything like a Championship level forward lines so difficult to predict, especially with a makeshift back line/keeper alongside him

Did well…a couple of vital blocks, was a presence in set piece defending…he’ll be delighted with that debut.

@chaddyrovers, enjoy your next day at work 👍

Bragging rights are all yours.

There's no way Big Mak's a footballer.

He showed some great touches and some terrible ones but I actually thought him coming on stopped Preston's momentum and pushed them back on their heels considerably.

I think we'll lose 4 or 5-0

I'm going to predict every game will be a 5-0 defeat for the rest of the season.

[neophox]

We seem to be at our best in an 5-3-2 formation... should had stick it against Derby and that would had been three points.

They making the short trip will have a good night out.

That's an exceptionally low bar but fair play he had a good game tonight.

Great result and performance, worked so hard all over the pitch. Enjoy the weekend!

Not impressed by PNE.

Anyone's game.

Had a nice inplay  flutter on Rovers at 5/2.

A decent night - in pocket and Rovers' win!

PNE are shite - frightening to think they would have gone second with a win.  Just how poor and open is this league!?

Reality is we are a bottom eight side.

Some decent performances but a few concerns with a number of ours either not good enough for the Championship or physically not suited to it.

As for Baradji - looked like he'd come on for a little knock about with his mates.  So laid back.  Big question mark there.

If you listen carefully you’ll hear them crying into their Liverpool hankies.

[Bronzed A Donis]

What a result. Some real stand out performances, but Pratt and Tronstad , immense for different reasons. Always nice to beat them in their cup final. Graft. Ismael deserves credit, 4 wins in 5.

Oh lovely, Miller admitting to having a concussion in the full time interview. Won't be available midweek then. 

Probably has no idea what is going on.
