We've also scored 7 goals in the past two games, so we know how to score, results like this happen in this league and will happen all season, Preston are no mugs even though some people seem to be writing them off as nobodies.
OK I apologise, I got the opposition wrong, wasn't my point.

"Not much"? No, not in PL terms and certainly not for a newly promoted team who, despite Palace not exactly playing out of their skins, put 3 past them, playing away from home and doing so looking like they had been in the PL for some time, not newly promoted..

Contrast that with Leeds playing at home in front of 34000 fans not getting a shot on goal until we're playing against 10 men.

Getting 7 goals when playing a newly promoted team ( lets not forget we conceded 2 in that game), and one from 2 divisions down then failing to trouble the first opposition worthy of the name for most of a game at home, inspiring? Nah.

If "results like this" are going to happen all season, then Radders had best put on hold any promotion celebrations.
