Come on and show the boys their worth on Sunday. I would expect close to 1000 to be there but think it would be fantastic if we could get 1500 to 2000!

I think there will be a flurry of sales for this and oxford in the next couple of days now!
Ive already got my ticket with a car load! gonna be a fun journey up!  :beers:  :pint: but its just a shame im the fool who said he would drive... :/  :badmood:  :doh:

Preston...pay on the gate? I'm only half hour away

Only 40 minutes away from me and my 1st game this season. Me, my brother and the old man heading down on Sunday. Cannot actually wait.

Cue drab 1 nil defeat to bring us down to earth after last nights heroics :(

They were outstanding last night against a Palace side that beat us only a couple of weeks ago.

It won't be an easy game at all, they are unbeaten at home this season so far with 2 wins against Championship sides in the CC and a home draw in the league to Colchester.

I'm currently living around 1 mile away from Deepdale. Got my tickets already! Would be great to get a good number up and carry on the atmosphere from last night.

In response to JJ - Preston got a fantastic result and are a good side. however, looking at the match stats 4-1 does seem to flatter them. Plus, you have to take into account that (a) it was a weakened Palace side, and (b) we only lost to Palace because of a dodgy penalty. Tough game, but winnable!

Does anyone know why this is on Sunday and not Saturday?

Some trade fair event going on in Preston meaning road closures.

Yes...

The is a march or something that needs policing on Saturday close to the ground.

Thanks, I did see that at the time but completely forgot.

otanswell asked the league to move it so he could spend all afternoon drinking on Saturday

That is true, I didn't realise that Palace played 10 different players from their last game and that Preston had 9 shots...all on target and Palace had 16 shots and only 5 on target.

Preston Guild celebrations (I have no idea also but its seems to happy every 20 years and is a big thing for the city?)

Didn't know there were so many town fans in Lancashire, I will be making my merry way down from Lancaster on the train, after last night I cannot wait!!

I think I'll just listen to the game instead.

My first away game of the season. Really looking forward to it, and hopefully we can take some momentum into the JPT game against Oxford.

I would have been there on the Saturday, but can't do Sunday.  The Preston Guild can go fuck themselves (unless they are like the Batley Women's Guild and are recreating the Battle of Bosworth throughout the entire town, in which case I'll pop up on Saturday).

I think the Preston Women's Guild would probably do something more modern, not like re-enacting the first heart transplant..

but maybe...Ernest Marples opening the Preston By-Pass in 1959.....Britain's first stretch of autobahn

I'm going fishing (probably).

That'd do me.:-)

thats rooooiiiiiiiggggghhhhtttt
gonna get bleSSed uP

Flames.

wooollllddddyyyyy

I'll be there keeping up my 100% record seeing the circus this season! C.O.Y.R!!!

am I right in assuming it's not all-ticket?
the OS has details of ticket sales but is silent on whether it's possible to pay on the day

Someone mentioned unreserved seats, but it is pay on the day

Tickets are definately unreserved, got mine this morning.

Around 400 sold so far, decent effort

So it's definitely not all ticket then?

Half an hour journey for me, will be my 3rd in 3 away games this season! Really hope there is a big away following!

Folk in the ticket office said you could pay on the day.

Tremendous effort

Got tickets for this yesterday, buzzing for it now. Only concern is an 'after the lord mayors show' type of performance. Hope we get a good turn out, I would guess somewhere between 900-1000?

I'll be there!

I'm at some stupid show on London, thanks to it being on Sunday. 700 is my guess.

Long shot... But if I could nick a lift from someone it'd be much appreciated. Will pay for petrol ect no problem.

sorry mate, ive already got a full car. pm me in future if you need a ride and ill see if i can help

No worries, enjoy your day! And I may well do... Cheers.
