Do people think that if we are 3rd bottom and they cancel the season next few weeks, we will then be relegated to league 1 and then prety much be screwed? Or do you reckon no chance they just cancel the season? I’m not sure they could. It enough of the season has been played to make any definite predictions. Top and bottom of the league are too close to call. I don’t think they will cancel the season, the most would be a break followed by a condensed second half of the season. 2 games a week for 4 months, it’s doable.

Really though I'd be disappointed not to take all 3 points today, I don't see a great deal to worry about from Preston tbh, I wasn't impressed when we played them in the cup either.

I would hope that after last year, the clubs got together and agreed in advance what would happen if the season were cancelled.. surely?? ...eg.. after 10 games we agree that is enough games to complete the season and any teams who have played less games get average points per game. Not heard anyone confirm that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roboto Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Watson is an interesting choice to promote to the first team. Just joined from West Ham this season, has looked good and composed on the ball, can play deep or attacking but has seemed a little lightweight even at u23 level. Stretton lost his place on the bench. Perhaps he needs more minutes at u23 level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrade 86 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Seems fair enough really. Think after the Swansea game it would have been tough to drop anyone. We know what to expect from Preston and I don't see them being able to bully us with a spine of Colin, Krystian and Clarkey. I'm hopeful of a fairly routine win if we show up. Certainly the week off will have helped some tired legs and given one or two the chance to sharpen up. Cameo from Jordon maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of Clough Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Surprised by Watson's inclusion as I wouldn't even choose him as a starter in the U23s. Started his U23 career with us brightly with a goal and assist on his debut vs Chelsea, then got an assist in the following game, but hasn't shown enough for me since.

This squad has more than enough ability to stay up, it's up to the players to get the job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
