They had a lot of possession but not really in dangerous areas

Most of their corners came from blocked crosses or in very queick succession when the previous corner was cleared for another one. There were two or three spells where they had 3 or 4 corners on the trot.

Brown and Dublin did their bestr but were quire often lacking support when holding the ball up as we didn't really have any attacking midfeilders playing at all. Ordinarily though Hucks and Cureton would give whichever one plays as the target man an outlet. On his display in the last 20 minutes though DS is also pushing hard for a start next saturday.

It wasn't a great performance but the biggest compliment I can give the defence is that despite Preston being slightly on top for most of the game I never felt they were likely to score unless someone stuck one in from 30 yards.
