Preston are our visitors for our midweek home fixture ,Preston are resolute defensively, I forsee a game very similar to the Huddersfield match.
My prediction 2-1 to the Swans , we are playing with confidence and I expect to see our winning run continue .

More like 1-2 to Preston. Everything reverts to the mean sooner or later, and Fisher is overdue.

I'm guessing we'll see Walsh back in the mix for this match and probably Darling too. I'm taking a liking to Darling at RB - so far so good but he hasn't faced a Montero type of winger yet ... still he can always apply the golden rule - I've never seen anybody sprint with a limp.

It looks like Martin is opting for his best XI (or what he thinks it is) hunting for the meager odds of making the playoffs, instead of using minutes to develop, prep and evaluate for next season. Can't fault him for that but his optimism is off the charts.

I've never seen anybody sprint with a limp.

Now where have I heard that before? It sounds very like a Ducksism to me! As for the game the question is: given that we've nothing much to play for, can Martin motivate the team to put in a performance? If he can I think we win. If not, Preston are handy enough to take the points. I shall stick my neck out and go for 3-1 to us.

... It sounds very like a Ducksism to me! ...

Has to be ... you know I've been pondering where and when that nugget of truth was planted deep in my psyche ... and now I can even picture and hear him saying it.

I like how Darling attacks opposition's far post. He is tall and good in the air.

Three at the back??? Wtf???

An extremely defensive line-up.

3-4-1-2

Why??? Martin will never learn. He always goes back to his crappy 3 at the back formation.

 

[Yankee_Jack]

Three at the back??? Wtf???

Ditto.

I'll go with 3-1 very entertaining match. I think they can win the remaining fixtures. I think it's really important to finish well so the players will have some confidence and something to carry on to next season. Theres going to be some anxiety during this next window with so many players leaving.

Wooooohooooo piroe

 

[The Blobster]

What a start

 

[ivoralljack]

Very well taken by Piroe. He can be lethal on his left foot.

 

[Yankee_Jack]

Woody is in goal. We can’t possibly lose this.

 

[Yankee_Jack]

Lati is playing inside as a CB and Darling is the RWB

 

[Yankee_Jack]

Forget that, Lati is the LCB

 

[CroJack]

I've lost the stream. Watching Watford 1:0 Cardiff

 

[Yankee_Jack]

We are playing with a back 4.

lf Manning was any further forward he’d be standing in Rossi’s

Good work from Allen then Piroe forces a save from Woodman
