Quite an open game so far in terms of chances. 

Need to be careful.

Giving Preston way way too many chances this can't continue! 

Yeah, we need to woke up!

[JohnnyShearer2.0]

Hmm, not sure why Charles didnt go for a shot there. 

[Sheaf Saint]

That wasn't a foul FFS.

Is this ref some kind of comedian? 

[RedArmy]

That was a Devine free kick. 

[HKsaint]

We need Jack to be back

You wouldn't say that to his face, he looks buff as fuck

[Suhari]

Sounds like Peretz is keeping us in it.

[saint michael]

Too many free crosses and headers

[Saint Fan CaM]

Bloody love Peretz - such good all round judgement. Defence…mmm

[obelisk]

Another good save by Peretz but it was another free header FFS!

[Saint NL]

Great save again 

Far too easy

Any of them but Derby, Derby were a tough nut to crack at St. Marys

[Saint Fan CaM]

Boro equalised - great they’re wearing each other out!

[Saint NL]

Saints only above Boro on goals scored

We won’t play any of them so it doesn’t matter. 

[saintstowin]

We've regressed since the goal. All a bit rushed and no sustained pressure when we have the ball, and they've found plenty of space.

[AlexLaw76]

we really miss Downes, again our midfield is easily played through

[benjii]

We've been playing like it's a bit of an exhibition but with Wrexham giving Boro a hard time, Tonda needs to have a word at half time and tell them to knuckle down.

I'd consider bringing Bree on for Archer or Scienza and moving Charles into the '10' to try to give everything a bit more control.

Could see Derby beating Millwall for example.

We will play them in Wembley 

[Suhari]

Archer barely mentioned.

Has done anything?

If Preston need a new shirt sponsor next season SPUD BROS can easily be rearranged into PUB DROSS.

[Jack]

Mental game at Wrexham, they can’t defend for shit. I’d take full time right now across all games, gets us a home 2nd leg, got a 72/1 acca coming in and would be over the moon for Wednesday to win one. 

[Lord Duckhunter]

The games too open, we need to get hold of the fucking ball and keep it for a bit. Lego then for 20mins, they’ll soon get fucked off chasing the ball all over the pitch. 

[Sheaf Saint]

If Bree is fit enough to play 45 mins then get him on. Charles and Fellows are letting far too much come down our right side between them.

What a keeper 

He’s so lucky that all those unstoppable shots we used to face stopped the day Baz left

Even though we’ve beaten Wrexham twice already this season, I wouldn’t want us to play them in the playoff final with all the media circus around it and they could get their own back for the our earlier wins.

[macca155]

Charles has been surprisingly decent at RB but they are getting a bunch of crosses in, which doesn't bode well.

Classic end of season, Saints doing just enough. They'll be kicking towards us 2nd half, that should give some momentum to put this game to bed.

Stewart has been poor, ball keeps pinging back. Need a change there.

He really hasn’t. 

[Suhari]

How are we looking effort-wise?

Busting a gut to win it, or coasting somewhat?

Tend to agree but it wouldn’t be like Tonda to make changes like that at HT, especially 1-0 up. Would like to see more control though

Nothing wrong with the effort, just a bit disjointed and not keeping the ball that well. It’s been fairly end to end with both sides being sloppy and presenting chances

The Preston Centre backs are typical Championship cloggers. Stewart winning nothing against them. If Larin is fit enough I would bring him on.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Good start, with Stewart getting close and a lovely THB opener.

From then, we've looked a bit like a side filling in a number of positions, while Preston have grown in confidence.

Charles and Archer standing out as not clicking in the positions they've been asked to take up.

Preston have had a couple of good heading chances of their own,  winning down that Charles/Fellows side.

Ahead of'boro on goals scored. A bit of tightening up is needed, to give us a better platform to get more.

Just looked back through our results, the last time we failed to score was Boro away on 4th January.
