*waits for some Wednesday goon to tell us that we are the WORST side they have ever seen*

***sigh**

They're being nice now:

Although Fifaowl reckons we could be in trouble if one of our hard working full backs gets injured as we only have a good eleven. I can see his point, what will we do if we have to play a game without Bong on the left, or lose our captain for a few games, or Lua Lua for a month or more, or not have Zamora available?

There are no easy games in the Championship. Anyone can beat anyone. I'm sure that there are countless more cliches as well, just add another to the list. :smile:

Was gonna make exactly the same point. This is a vrtough division and if you look at what was happening this time last year I am shocked that anyone is unhappy with this season so far. Were going through a slight dip which all teams do but haven't been beaten even playing in form sides

Decent game, 2 good, well organised teams. I'll be surprised if you don't maintain your league position (at least) and would hope we're up there with you at the end. March looks a very good player for you lot. See you at the reverse fixture.

We're a top striker away from winning this league at a canter.
Yes, but don't forget that Christmas came early for Preston when both Kayal and Stephens were out.

A central midfielder and a loan left back are also needed.

Fair point but think how many extra points we'd have had if we'd converted some of those chances that have gone begging...

Yes, you are right, and with Zamora not available tonight we were somewhat lacking in options up front.

I'm sure that Zamora missing, and Murphy being on the bench were with MKDons in mind.

Hopefully great selection by Hughton to bring in 4 points from the 2 games.

Sounded massively drab on the radio but an excellent point. Would have taken that all day long. We are officially three goals better than Arsenal!!

Need to win on Saturday mind you.......

Think we are better than we give ourselves credit for, we were very comfortable tonight against a better than average champ side. Remember we had 3/4 regulars out and can't remember them having a chance. Yes we need another striker and we will go up, no striker then playoffs, but would have taken that before season starts. Weds fans said we were better than Arsenal !!!

Warren said on the radio that Stockers never had to make a single save with his hands. This, against arguably the leagues form team at the moment, that thumped Arsenal last week. We're doing OK and won't lose many playing like we are.
