There’s definitely a loan, and work being completed on a permanent. | |

Good. For all the whining we should be reasonably placed come window's end, and much less likely to need another ten figure bailout. | |

If they don't use some imagination to increase the turnover, attendances, merchandise, hospitality is way down ect I wouldn't rule it out. We need a good start to the season to gain momentum. | | | |

They need an entertaining team. Perhaps even more so than one succeeding just by grinding out points, Cooper/Southgate style. Definitely more than one that promises it but fails to deliver. If the team is capable of getting bums off seats then crowds will rise. People are bored of being bored, which we have been far too often over the last five years. There are better things to do on a Saturday. We're going about it the right way by bringing in players like Eom. Players with that certain extra something that excites fans. It's down to Williams to give us something worth watching. | |

A winning team helps. At home last season wins were few and far between, that has to have had a knock on this season in sales. | | | |

Winning yes, but winning with at least a bit of flair. I absolutely agree that our home form last season has cost us in attendances for this one, but I think we need more than a team that just grinds results out. We need to enthuse people again. If Williams gets us into the top six but plays dull, modern style "possession" football to do it then crowds won't rise much IMO. I'm encouraged by what I saw for spells on Saturday that he's wising up about that, but we've a long way to go. | |

Just been looking back at the 10/11 season, the last time attendances dipped. We weren't tremendously fun to watch for a lot of the time during Brendan's first season and attendances hovered around the 13-14,000 mark. Our crowds didn't really start coming close to maxing out until the game we beat Leeds 3-0, which crowned a four match winning run in which we scored eleven goals. After that we really kicked into gear (playing Dobbie through the middle made it for me) and we didn't have a gate below 16,000. That's what people want. Entertainment as much as success. | |

I have always said that football is primarily entertainment. For a club of our stature there is really nothing more important to maintaining the club, since we are unlikely to win any trophies for some time. | | | |

Oko -Flex was released by West Ham at the end of that season - they didn't take up the extra year option. He signed for FC Zurich. | |

With only a couple of hundred Preston fans there Saturday the crowd really was quite decent considering where we currently are and the TV deal. | | | |

Yep. If we have sold 9500 ST's then that's a walk up crowd of well over 3500. Way higher than it could have been given the teams struggles over the last three years. | |

For balance he played in a Champion League game and did well from what I remember, his confidence took a massive knock afterwards, not sure if it was caused by the racist comments he suffered at Luton, but he never seemed himself after that, maybe a coincidence, don't think Luton suffered any consequences either. | |
