Nothing against Jervis but I didn't see anything to make me think he was League 1 quality.

That's him on a scoring run then :)

Nothing That Nouble did made me think he was a league footballer....but he scored in the Championship yesterday and led the line well i am led to believe for West Ham.....as Magera is finding out it is hard to shine in LG 2 at times.

Joint Lilywhites caretaker-manager Graham Alexander told the club website: "He is a physical lad. He has got a decent touch and a bit of pace."   Really?

All the best Jake, I hope it works out for you.

Physical  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Decent touch  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Pity, he didn't show that once during his loan spell - perhaps when playing for Preston he'll wear football boots as opposed to the prisms he obviously wore during his Town days.

what pish.......terrible at Torquay

He did his bit and I wish him luck. Jervis will want to test himself at a higher level and you can't argue with that.

Yeah but one match isnt a blokes career is it......Ritchie has been piss poor in some matches this year but you wouldn't judge him on them performances,he did ok scored 3 in 11....not great but our top scorer who is not in the team only has 6 .
Good luck to him.

Leefer, it wasn't just one game though was it? He may go on to have a glittering career with another club/s, however, those of us who doubt his ability to do a job for us judge him on all his appearances, goals scored, assists and how many times he fell over per game and I counted three at Torquay.

I didn't think he was as bad as much of this thread makes out. I tend to side more with Alexander, than Jervis's detractors, I think.

Edit: Although I also agree with Batch - he showed little that made me think he'd cut it in the league above.

Agreed baz

League 2 was his level I think,with Benson in id like too see him and connel start,magera will come good

He was ok, wouldn't have been upset if he had stayed, but equally not upset that he has gone.

He did ok for us, didn't take this piss so I wish him all the best. Unless he plays against us.

He did give his all to be fair,i wish him the best,just cant see him scoring a lot of goals.his hold up play was ok,squad player I think

I should have phrases what I think better. He's young with only a little league experience, he could become a good player. Just not ready for league 1 yet, though who knows, maybe PNE style of play will suit him better.

Murray looked a better bet for me yesterday, good movement and unlucky with the chip.

That Murray chip looks like a deflection off the defender on the highlights.

I agree. Thought it was a chip at the time. Murray was pretty unluck with is chances in the first half yesterday - was only denied by good blocks and good goalkeeping.

I also liked the look of Murray. The fact he got into those positions in the first place shows he has something about him. Unlucky not to get himself on the scoresheet.

GOAL: Rochdale 0-1 Preston : Jervis (16)

I was wrong and right :)

Rochdale are league two quality.
