Got to bury the shighte at home if you want promotion, its always been thus.
Preston aren't ****e though, they had a sniff of playoffs last year and have improved their squad. That's what I don't understand, people just look at the name of a team and say 'we should be beating them' based on some historical value as if we are a PL side anymore, our fans need to stop looking at clubs and just assuming we should beat them because of their past. Fact is Preston are a good side, with good players and will do well this year somewhere in the top 10, a point against them is not the end of the world as some are making it out to be.
