Preston North End vs Derby County Matchday Thread

[Angry Ram]

How thin are Malones legs.  Not normal   

[belperram9]

Said it many times on this forum. Lawrence is awful and over rated. 

[StringerBell]

Haha Nugent."Hows that a freekichh. He's laying on the ball"

[SaintRam]

Its more furstrating cos you know he's capable. But I've never seen a player less adept at taking the ball past a defender be more determined to do so. Every. Single. Time.

We have Had the better chances, we can win this game as long as we take greedy Lawrence off. Preston are poor at the back and are giving us a lot of space.

[Millenniumram]

Should be able to make an impact second half. We’ve had the better chances and have Pearson rattled. Gotta start making the right decisions tho, and start defending better. As has been the case in pretty much every game this season.

I love having to follow the game on here. 

Do you mind singling out my rare positivity!?

[Phuket Ram]

Awful scrappy game. It's just not happening in the midfield for me. I'd like to see Huds on in the second half, and swap Lawrence for Claude Davis/Steve Davis/Betty Davis - literally anyone. 

[nottingram]

I see a poor team performance is being blamed on one of the two or three players actually trying stuff again. Good stuff.

Waghorn, Nugent, Bryson at least all may as well be at home and deserve far more stick. And you will not find a bigger defender of Bryson than me.

Think I'm the only person who rates Lawrence. Standard inconsistent winger.

Bit of a mard arse.

Great when he's on it, not the end of the world if he's not as long as the rest of the team are.

I think there's another bloke that rates him, but last I heard he moved to Stoke. I'll tell you what, why don't you start listing all the good things he does? (Or had you already been doing that.........? hard to tell ? )

[TimRam]

We have come back into the game a lot more. Wilson can certainly strike a ball well...shame about anyone else. A fit Marriott in place of Nugent and this would be a certain win at the mo.

[DcFc Dyycheee]

Absolutely baffled as to how Evans can get into the team ahead of Huddlestone. 

[Chester40]

Poor start. Gradually worked our way into it and had the better chances. 

From crosses we look very weak, otherwise they have created nothing.

Evans very safe, think Hudds would be better there.  Nugent totally anonymous...Wilson wonder goal aside we look toothless.  Scrappy..

We heard you the first time

Can't believe we sold Ince and got Lawrence in. 

He needs to pass the bloody ball.

PASS THE BALL 

[Abu Dhabi Ram]

Solid first half for me. Could have had 3 on another night. Holmes looking good, Nugent showing well, Waghorn growing into the game. 

[hintonsboots]

Would be better with Stan Boardman up front. He could do all the scouser jokes, cuddle the opposition defenders, wink ? at everyone and get nowhere near the f in ball....also cheaper on wages.

Go on Dave prove me wrong and score the winner.✌️

[QuitYourJibbaJivin]

When did the bar or post become “the target”????? ??‍♂️

[SillyBilly]

Anonymous performance at HT, Wilson looks absolute class as we come to expect, can't constantly rely on him to pull out worldies from the bag though, the rest of the team needs to do something.

I'd like to see Hudds on. No real issue with Evans but the balance doesn't seem right. Last 10 mins of the half was encouraging though.

First 10 mins was worrying, seemed every ball in our box was won by a Preston player, area of concern for sure.
