3-0 home win against Preston

Great result - and Pakistan won today, good day all round

Back in a bit of form and back in second, but the lack of depth is beginning to show. We have the quality to match WBA and Newcastle but we haven't the depth - we have used the fewest players of any team in the top four divisions. Having the smallest squad in the country of professional teams probably isn't wise when you're competing for promotion. Personally I expect us to slip back into the play-offs and run out of steam in a semi-final defeat. Unless we can get three or four good quality loanees to really boost the squad that is. One injury at the minute would cripple us if it came in any position.
