From what you have seen this season, what are your general views on PNE? haven't seen much , i generally watch the premiership games on telly and dream of yesteryear
What did you think of PNE/Preston on your last visit to Deepdale? i haven't been stopped travelling around the country to away games when i got older/couldn't afford to go/worked saturdays/got a family/suffered from travel sickness etc etc

LOL, and with the standard questions come the standard replies.....
2/ bailey
3/ Pardew or his twin Parkinson sadly followed by the board
4/ No view unless i watch Monkey World
5/ Your first question is a tribute to yourselves
6/ 17 . 2 to PNE but i live in hope of a point
How has you season gone so far? Badly
Who has been your best player so far this season? Nicky Bailey but keep it quiet as we'd like to keep him
Who has been your most dissapointing player this season? Mark Hudson
What can we expect to see when we come to The Valley (tactics/formations etc)? If it's a 4-5-1 there'll be an attacking midfielder playing off the striker, so not as negative as it may sound. If it's a 4-4-2 then lately it has been without much width.
From what you have seen this season, what are your general views on PNE? decent side who know how to play this division
What did you think of PNE/Preston on your last visit to Deepdale? never been
What do you think the final scoreline will be? 1-1
I apologise for the standardised questions, they're pretty generic but give a good feel for our opponents for the upcoming game - and everyone enjoys reading them!
I'll probably post up everyones responses in a day or two so i'll let you know and you can read the inevitable replies!
Who has been your best player so far this season? Bailey really, had a good start, then struggled for a bit, now moved to the left and scoring goals from midfield. Racon and Zheng are better players overall, but have missed most of the season.
Who has been your most dissapointing player this season? Our strikers, didn't expect 20+ goals from any of them, but I expected better. If we had one or two goalscorers up front we'd be fine.
What can we expect to see when we come to The Valley (tactics/formations etc)? 4-4-1-1 or 4-4-2 without wingers (though Sam might come in on the right). Zheng, Shelvey or Ambrose 'in the hole' in a 4-4-1-1, if not Kandol and Burton/Dickson in a 4-4-2. Not quite a passing team, not quite a long ball team.
From what you have seen this season, what are your general views on PNE? Another decent Championship side who will probably get up through the playoffs at some point and have their time in the Prem.
What did you think of PNE/Preston on your last visit to Deepdale? Can't really remember, I remember watching us get a good 2-0 away win against you on TV last season.
What do you think the final scoreline will be? 2-1, not sure who to, someone will get a winner in the second half
Who has been your best player so far this season? Nicky Bailey closely followed by the young Master Shelvey from December/January
Who has been your most disappointing player this season?I'll pick, Andy Gray and Luke Varney - Showed promise last game of last season but neither could hit a barn door!
What can we expect to see when we come to The Valley (tactics/formations etc)? Most likely a 4-5-1 attacking through the middle
From what you have seen this season, what are your general views on PNE? No real opinion, just another midtable championship side.
What did you think of PNE/Preston on your last visit to Deepdale?Never been sorry furthest i travel watford (or Derby for this year)
What do you think the final scoreline will be? 2-1 we'll nick it by a wild shot, I mean the goals we have scored have been nice - but to few and far between.
Who has been your best player so far this season? Pass, it's like asking a blind man which one of his eyes is best.
Who has been your most dissapointing player this season? see previous answer
What can we expect to see when we come to The Valley (tactics/formations etc)? more empty seats that the official attendance indicates, lots of sighing and people dressed is corduroy.
From what you have seen this season, what are your general views on PNE? They are better than us.
What did you think of PNE/Preston on your last visit to Deepdale? nothing, not an away supporter
What do you think the final scoreline will be? 8-2 to us.
Who has been your best player so far this season? Bailey, work rate plus goals, any team would like him
Who has been your most dissapointing player this season? In terms of inability, Burton, but that came as little surprise to me. I hoped for more from Bouazza and Hudson.
What can we expect to see when we come to The Valley (tactics/formations etc)? More central midfielders on one pitch than you have ever seen in your life.
From what you have seen this season, what are your general views on PNE? Decent side, good manager (the latest in a line - wish our board could pick them as well, wee Craigie aside), deserve to be in the mix
What did you think of PNE/Preston on your last visit to Deepdale? not been, but have been to nearby grim Blackpool who seemed obsessed with PNE.
What do you think the final scoreline will be? An optimistic 1-1 but we never cope with THE BEAST
.....
Pay much attention to the Championship do you?
shelvey
youve got no chance
lol :)
Fantasticly well. We seem to be in a completely different league to all the other teams in the Chamiponship. Thanks so much for asking.
[b]Who has been your best player so far this season?[/b]
One of the womans team I guess as they are the only ones who ever win.
[b]Who has been your most dissapointing player this season?[/b]
Could be just about any of them, but top 3 in order for me would be Hudson, Weaver, Youga.
[b]What can we expect to see when we come to The Valley (tactics/formations etc)?[/b]
Well its a must win game, so we will go for 1 upfront. Then we will choose to lump it to him. Get out fought in midfield. Let in a stupid goal or two that would not look out of place in Sunday League, and finally make a couple of substitutes just as it gets too late for them to make any difference whatsoever.
[b]From what you have seen this season, what are your general views on PNE?[/b]
Don't have any views I'm afraid. Every team in this division is equally as bad as all the others. Fortunately for you it means you will end up midtable.
[b]What did you think of PNE/Preston on your last visit to Deepdale?[/b]
Never been and don't plan to.
[b]What do you think the final scoreline will be? [/b]
5-1...well you have to dream don't you.
Who has been your best player so far this season? Murty, he could actually defend!
Who has been your most dissapointing player this season? Varney & Hudson
What can we expect to see when we come to The Valley (tactics/formations etc)? Hoofball, I expect.
From what you have seen this season, what are your general views on PNE? Decent club. Due homage to Sir Tom.
What did you think of PNE/Preston on your last visit to Deepdale? I went a long time ago...we lost. Long journey home on the coach.
What do you think the final scoreline will be? 0 - 1, unless Kandol blows you away.
