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!

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!

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

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.
