Just win! Keep the pressure on the other 3. Play like we did tonight and we should.

Interestingly we play 3 fixtures before Ipswich play again. Win them all ( tough ask when one is Leicester) and we go 4 points above Ipswich and that would mean pressure on them for their two games in hand. I still don’t think we’ll get autos but at least we’re finally making a decent attempt of it.

I don't particularly rate Bazunu, he's improved this season but I still think his decision making is iffy and sometimes it seems shots go through him, but I do hope he recovers well. It is what it is. Maybe our more direct style tonight was a result of the keeper change. At least both our back up keepers are experienced.

I'm surprised Stephens wasn't shoehorned into it! Seriously it's crazy. Yes Whittaker has been good at a lesser side but AA has been consistently good. 31 goal contributions (goals and assists) and the season isn't over. And Rutter as a striker only has 6 goals. Even Mavididi has been better. Not sure about Greaves at CB either.

And he got it. And was decent. We're going to need the squad over the next few weeks so good to see him play with confidence. He's not the same player as Downes but I noticed he won a few headers which adds to what he can offer us. I've seen him be poor earlier in the season but he's young and learning and the price tag wasn't his fault. Promising.

Preston were shite but play like this and we can beat anyone. Which bodes well for the playoffs.

Give Charles credit tonight, probably best I've seen him play. Best of the subs for sure. Everyone that started was excellent tonight. Not sure who I'd give MOTM though, Che for his two perhaps, KWP was up there too and AA was good. Probably Stu before he was subbed, he was a man possessed tonight.

Gone a bit stale but we snuffed them out hours ago. Key players rested early and a clean sheet (as I type). Preston have offered nowt.

Sulemana on for Brooksy.

AA not getting into the team of the season is pants really. What more did he have to do?

No hattrick for Che. Rested

Great save their keeper should've been 4

Our passing is insane tonight

Close Che

Rothwell and Smallbone coming. Ooh McCarthy jeez

Really want a Che hattrick tonight.

Let's not encourage any more building fires!

Even Jan having a shot!

I hope that's not Martin thinking the game is won and Downes has a knock. Downes was good that first half. Hey ho, good chance for Charles to show what he can do.

Shea on for Downes?

Not a bad player on the pitch for us so far. Everyone working hard. Passing good, winning the ball well. If this is the final score I'd still be very happy. But with Preston offering nothing this is a really good chance to boost our goal difference, which isn't nearly as good as the other 3.

Couldn't have wished for a better half. Preston can't be this shit all game can they?

Manning really moving the ball upfield well tonight.

Stu off the post! The dude is on fucking fire.
