Barnsley v Preston North End Match Thoughts

[animallittle3]

Difficult one to predict is this , Preston seem to be able to beat anyone one day and lose to absolutely anyone the very next game .

Decent away record to be fair including a win at Bournemouth two weeks ago .

Halme out with a couple of broken toes so Helik will come back in to the back three I'd imagine .

Can we make it three wins on the bounce ?

We are due a draw and I feel one coming tomorrow night which wouldn't be a bad result in my opinion .

This is where the influence of BIG VAL must come to the fore.
The players will be euphoric after winning a local derby - BIG VAL has to appear with a big stick now and knock them off their perch.
Get them grounded and organised and ready to go again.

Really disappointing news about Aapo - as I believe we have a great young player in him.
Tall lads usually develop later - and this player is another one that’s going to have a big value attached to him in another season or two.
We are now light at the back if we have an injury or suspension to one of the other back 3.
The sooner Williams gets back the better.

Prediction thread am having a mare Pass, top last season doing a Sheff Utd this season - a keep predicting a draw and we aint had any under big Val

If we win tonight we go to 9th 3 points off the play off’s because none of the 4 above us are playing! It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the Championship table with us in the top half........

Not done many draws this season Preston two and the Reds four so this game would probably be the first entry on the old pools coupon.
Not at all sure on this one but would settle for ugly win or avoiding defeat.
Anderson and Styles need to avoid bookings or they will be on five and will be out for the trip to Swansea.
After this game yellow card bans will move to ten instead of the current five.

I had the same dilemma over this match and coincidentally came up with the same outcome as you pass.

I would take a point now and move on to Swansea, a game I have bad feelings about. I am hoping for a win tonight, of course.

I went for a defeat here and another on Saturday. Ob course I want us to win. I just think Preston aren't duck eggs and I class them in the same bracket as Brentford when they play well. Swansea I class in the same bracket as Bournemouth and think we've more chance of platting fog there. Anything we get out of these two is a bonus.

I don't like chucking this into the ring but we're due another poor performance. I know Bournemouth battered us but we played quite well. Due another Cardiff along the line. Rather get it out of the way in the next two.
