Match Thread v Preston N E (FA Cup 4th Rd Replay A)

[Romanis]

Davies rings in the changes:

Dories

Harding Collins (c) Lascelles Halford

Jara Mackie Abdoun Moussi

Cox Derbyshire

[Romanis]

Subs: Darlow Greening (?) Henderson Paterson Majewski Reid and Osborn


Garner on the bench for PNE

[Romanis]

It looks very Tricky, but I think we'll nick it with my favourite scoreline PNE 2-3 Forest

[Romanis]

As I'm having lag problems with Firefox (which is the best server to watch the stream), I can't open multiple tabs, so be back at HT.

Hopefully we're in a good position going into it.

[Polish_ForestMad]

Just what we need with injuries piling up a dirty Kevin Davies trying to crop our midfielders.

[Romanis]

Kevin Davies being Kevin Davies as usual! But he's good player.

[Romanis]

Preston pressing well, although we seem confident of repelling them.

However a little more urgency will be needed in the 2nd half, a Preston equaliser will set the cat amongst the pigeons

[Polish_ForestMad]

Its not him not getting sent off its shocking that we didn't even get a free kick.there best player should be off the pitch.madness.

[Bourne1865]

PNE have the upper hand. Our midfield ain't strong enough without Lansbury or Reid. Worried about the def aswell. Feels like a bit of a second team out there. Apart from Reidy,Majewski and Paterson there's not much on the bench that can be used to give us a bit more oomph. We need to up our possession and attack more. We've been caught offside loads!

I doubt the FA will step in (the referee didn't take action, so technically they could).

Abdoun also went in as did Davies and it's hard to really define if he had malice on his mind or just there to win the ball.

Unlucky

[Romanis]

Back in 50 mins, unless there's extra-time. Hopefully it won't be necessary and we manage to score another or hold on.

Hendo and Pato should come on, maybe Reid towards the end

[Polish_ForestMad]

Abdoun slid in but Davies jumped in which was out of control.thats how I see it.

[Trickytreesreds]

OUTRAGEOUS DECISION, WE WAS ROBBED !!! >:(

Appalling reffing/lino, why is it always ...


errrrrrrrrrrrrrm sorry, thought I was replying to a Notts thread then. :blue:

[redredtree]

appeals for handball from PNE, we got the decision in our favour, sweet justice as davies should not be on the pitch. PNE are now giving it a real good go. we need to compose and take control.

[redredtree]

off side yet again!!

[Bourne1865]

What are we doing!

[redredtree]

hanging on! that is what we are doing, talk about making it hard for ourselves!

[redredtree]

PNE so close to scoring and we all over the shop!

[redredtree]

4 minutes to hang on!

[redredtree]

well, that came from nowhere! PHEW!

[Bourne1865]

How lucky are we. Talk about skin of the teeth. The performance ain't good enough!

Win when your poor,sign of a good team.yes we were poor but its best to be poor in the cup than in the league.

[Bourne1865]

We got away with that one big style! They had 64% possession and 28 shots! We had 6 shots and scored two. How in the hell did we win that!

I thought we won... Tends to suggest it was good enough

[Trickytreesreds]

Well, what can you say?

The side that went out obviously wasn't going to do a deal. Got Alamo'd but still won 2-0 :?
Run goes on, but I'm more concerned with the aftermath of Lansbury.
This is a distraction and we need to move fast. Window opens Friday.
Sorry, Fawaz, it's cheque book time again. :blue:

[Romanis]

This tie reminded me of our 1980 European Cup Final, scored around the 20 min mark and defend for your lives!

But we did get the second :D

[Romanis]

Lucky forest...

Who cares, we won!

PS: Answering for Es*** ;D

It was good enough to go through to round 5, but come on 6 shots is rubbish, plus PNE had 64% possession.

We are gonna miss Lansbury big time. Let's hope he's ok and makes a speedy recovery because on this performance we need him.

Any team in our division would miss a player like Henri, we need a loan or two but otherwise we'll be fine.

[triz]

is everyone happy about this result? do you think it may effect your league form what with having more games? im not so sure but i hope so.

Thing is Tricky is the players picked tonight should be trying to show Billy Davies that they want to be in the starting 11 at Blackpool on Saturday.

Only Doris and Lascelles stepped
