Goal mad Preston have scored. They could get Brucey the push again.

I know it's West Brom, so it's funny, but Preston are one of the worst teams I've ever seen. Reminds me of how utterly grim being in the Championship was, losing to/drawing with shite like that.

Preston's goal record is utterly surreal. By a mile they have the worst attack *and* best defence in the league. Yet they don"t particularly sound like bus parkers

I have never seen anything like the last 20 minutes. They basically gave up on possession. Every time they got the ball, they smashed it and got back into defensive position.

They've now scored four goals in twelve games and they're in the top half, two points off the playoffs.

I feel sorry for their fans. Their manager makes Alex McLeish look like Kevin Keegan.

No surprise to see them scoring so many, but you'd think that with twenty-two players, they'd be able to defend a bit better.

If Bruce is still in a job by this time tomorrow I will be amazed. And I get the feeling that with that he'll call it a day
They can’t afford to sack him, the penniless farts.

Also, there will always be another mug to give him a job off the back of failure

Just turned the Manure game on in time to see them concede. Even the commentator was taking the piss out pf Ten Haag.

Hopefully not in the diocesan sense.

Arsenal was a team we battered just two years ago at their place. Now they look like a sure bet for CL a football playing some superb football and scoring for fun. And we have gone in precisely the opposite direction. Boring football and never scoring.

They've got a net spend of the best part of £300m since summer 2020. And another £100m the year before.

I watched the Arsenal game in a pub tonight and still have no clue who they played. Whoever they were, their fans looked lively.

Bodø/Glimt, a Norwegian team. Domestic Champions the last two seasons but a distant second this year (it has nearly finished as the Norwegian League plays in the summer).

Probably best known for their Europa Conference League run last season, knocking out Celtic along the way having already twatted Roma 6-1 in the Group Stage. They eventually got knocked out in the Quarter-Finals despite beating Roma again in the first leg.
