    I wouldn’t class their support as “passionate” by any stretch.

    Their ground is always half empty.......they strike me as a club who time forgot.

    Passion does not always come in numbers. If there was one PNE fan at the game, they may be as passionate about their club as you are of yours Jots.

    With the two Manchester clubs, Liverpool, Burnley, Wigan and Blackpool all close by, perhaps, and not surprisingly, their fan base might be limited.

    I’d love to see them back in the top flight. With us of course. Though I have to say, the Championship is an exciting league to be honest. The only draw to the Premier League is the money aspect.

    Agree.
    Great history...great club. Love the tradition of the game. Passion correctly is not in numbers but in the heart of the individual....👌

    Not a dive. His momentum provided that he fell over the keeper (who did not deliberately bring him down)
    I now don’t understand the rules fully enough to ascertain therefore whether it warranted a penalty.
    Question...had he not tripped over the keeper, would he have scored ?

    I struggle with what is a fair tackle nowadays.....ah well...

    Leeds supporters are miffed they're no longer top of the table. Whatever happened at Deepdale may not have concerned them so much if their own players had a better chance to conversion rate. They also seem to have overlooked that our result puts more space between them and the chasing pack. Living free of charge in their collective head space since April 17th 1971. As Windsor Davies used to say: 'Oh dear, how sad, never mind'. Top of the table after taking three points from a side lucky to have finished the first half with a full compliment of players, never mind the second. There's lovely isn't it? COYB.

    I was talking to an Albion supporting Sunday ref and he told me that he knew the ref who gave our pen, I think he said his name was Tommy Langford, and he is from Wednesbury and works for Sandwell Council, but he did not know if he supported us.

    If true it is shocking after the viler Mariner Chelsea incident (which he still says is how he saw it the cheating scu m bag) that this is allowed to happen.

    But, as long as it benefits us go for inept refs governing body.

    On the note of refs that c??? Scott was referee of the Arsenal game on Thursday and it was unbelievable how many shirt pulling incidents he missed from bha players in the box.

    Our refs and those that govern them are truly s hit and I wonder how many won't be picked again at euro 2020.
