    Our style only looks decent if we win. It’s ***** otherwise as shown tonight.

    I think we're looking sluggish, so are Preston, but at least they've got a goal. An excellent save from Walton just before half time has kept us in the game. Our passing has to be sharper and crisper & I think it can be.

    We've been winning plenty with it though and look competitive in most matches, we just need to be much sharper up front.

    If they hadn't scored in the first minute, you'd have probably said we had marginally the better of the first half. But we've really shot ourselves in the foot early again (assuming it was actually a goal!).

    I actually thought for 10-15 mins we played some decent stuff and got ourselves on the front foot, but for the next 20 we gave away the initiative by being too direct.

    Hope we can have a little more control and composure 2nd half, because if we do I fancy us to equalise at least.

    I think we've looked better playing on ground more but we really need to drive at their defence, get in the box shoot or draw the pen. Just always looks like we could get suckered. Cut out the hopeful punts up the centre and use the wings. It's there for us, can we up a gear?

    Extra legs required from somewhere.

    8 Or 9 of these lads have played an awful lot of football recently.

    Our passing WAS sharper & crisper in the second half, led ably by Mowatt and Styles. Two superb finishes by Mowatt and Adeboyejo deservedly won us the game. Young Victor is becoming quite the talent under Valerien Ismael. Walton only had one shot to save in the second half, as Preston struggled with us moving up the gears.
    I'm struggling to think of my MOTM, but it has to be one of the three central defenders. Every one of them was a rock, but I'll give it to Helik.
    Well done lads, another deserved victory and again battling back from going a goal down to win the match.
    I'm a very happy Red tonight.:D

    Well said mate. We've just come from behind again to win 2-1, three times this month! 9 points in a week! :D:D

    We're Happy Bunnies tonight :D:D:D

    I can't make my mind up for MOTM yet either, need to sleep on it. However, Victor deserves special mention for his excellent 30 minute cameo and superb strike for the winner

    Second haif was far better, Jack came out of his area and judged it well on a few occasions and Helik was my MofM as well. Good comeback once more lads onwards and upwards.
