are women stronger than men...
at 07:40 22 Dec 2024

Having worked in predominantly female dominated organisations in recent years, bitchiness is a thing.

Men will say it how it is and say it to your face..

Women gossip more and stab you in the back without you knowing who it was.

Obviously that's a massive generalisation but the numbers would back this up overall in my experiences.

I not a great fan of boxing but watching women box is terrifying and sad for me. Guess it's a controlled way to release anger and stress.

But depends obviously. My better half is a gentle soul.

Nice Sunday morning debate about battle of the sexes.

But there's apparently 67 genders now so it's a bit more complicated now !!!!!!¡

Where are the "Nourry out" comments now ???
at 23:23 21 Dec 2024

I can't really agree with the statement of shocking recruitment Brian.

Nardi, Morrison, Varane, Morgan, Saito and Dembele all shown signs of class and hunger and let's hope Celar picks up once he is back.

And we have had a ridiculous amount of injuries to key players.

To be fair though when have we ever had successful owners, or the hierarchy from the boardroom.

For me, the success is down to the manager but "absolutely shocking recruitment" can't agree with that statement. Many i feel, have been decent and will continue as such.

Would put him on a par with Clint Hill and Shaun Derry though.

Added to his surprising transformation into a decent full back.

It's the headers won at set pieces , both in defence and attack that make a difference.

Hardly ever loses a duelnwherever it is on the pitch.

Before Cifuentes transformed the guy and took a punt st Jimmy on the right, he was meekly slipping away and probably looking at moving on.

He always comes across as such a decent guy as well and he has developed hero status with his last few performances given his awful family circumstances he has had to face. His old man is beaming up there, no doubt.

A decent run of form solves a great deal of ills.

I was as worried as most with our direction and it truly wasn't smelling of roses around here for long periods.

I can't say hardly anyone saw this coming but things are seriously looking much much better.

So as for signings

Nardi
Morrison
Varane
Morgan
Saito

All looking good

Signings injured but have had few signs of improvement

Dembele
Celar

Youth players progressing well

Kolli
Lloyd

Other signings - some hopes

Ashby
Madsen

Ones that a way to go

Santos
Bennie

Existing squad players performing / injured

Cook
Dunne
Smyth
Field
Chair

Frey
JCS
Colback

Others

Paal
EDB
Anderson

Seems a squad that does have more depth than previously if we look at recent form.

Was Nourry ster right all along???

And as soon as we have all been made aware of who is injured once when they are due back - has coincided with upturn in form.

Suddenly this forum has all gone quiet on the Nourry Out rhetoric !!!

Am not being a smart a*se. I was worried about the set up as much as anyone,..

Was the data right all along ??

Get Saito signed i say.

Great little player.

Not his best game today hut he is often strong in challenges belying his size and has proved himself during this run of starts for him due to injuries to others.

We actually have options right now.

He is signed permanently.

Only came here this season and not from the youth set up here.

Was Prestons goal totally against the morals of the game
at 19:22 21 Dec 2024

Yes can agree to a certain extent

Just added to the nonsense though that reaks from the Preston North End players !!

I would have felt slightly uncomfortable if we had scored such a goal.

But get your comment re it's a professional game. Just a gutting goal to concede.

Not only 14th in the table
at 19:18 21 Dec 2024

Now that's just being silly my friend

However I did put a bet on us to finish top half £25 at 8 to 1.

And now we are on the up, players returning from injury and only two points and two places outside being top half.

Only dampener is hopefully Cook injury is not as bad as it seemed

On some occasions would the team that scored such a goal, realise it was a mistake and allow an equaliser.

Or even the attacker to stop playing.

To me it was borderline cheating.

I would have felt uncomfortable if we had scored it without opposition.

Think today's 30 minute cameo has now established signs that the real Chair has returned Looked strong, released the ball much much quicker and added strength and quality.

Superb assist for the winner. Think he replaces Saito in the first eleven next game,

Harsh on Saito but think he could do well as an impact sub.

He always gives more than 100%.

He has added the decent final ball and more clinical finishing also.

Another making a strong case to being remembered fondly long after his time here.

And the two goals conceded

A thirty yard free kick and a goal that would not even have been a chance had our player not pulled up injured..

Finally we are taking a few of our chances but it's the defence that has shined throughout.

He is in the best form of his career for me Connell.

His decision making and execution vastly improved too.

A menace currently for opposition defences

The win was inevitable - Superb Support Today
at 18:00 21 Dec 2024

That second half performance was superb.

I always felt we would win it and what an atmosphere. The crowd today literally sucked that winner into the net. A lot of our youngsters playing superbly.

What a turn around. Absolutely brilliant.

Chair looked sharp when he came on too.

With the ever iconic Jimmy getting the winner. This guy is going to be very high up in the memory as an ex R when his playing days are over.

Pleasure to head off into Christmas following this beautiful game.

As things stand right now - If we win

Yes so it's definitely 14th if we win today , no matter what happens elsewhere !!!

If that happens, who could have thought that, when we were adrift at the bottom just three weeks ago

The madness of the Championship !!
