Simpson Out Of Luck

It was nothing to do with the fact that we only had two shots on target all game and lacked concentration at the back at key moments but Simpson post match was adamant that it was bad luck that cost North End the game.

The excuses are waring thin as Simpson explained the only way they could have scored was if Adebola was allowed time and space or they scored a wonder goal - both amazingly happened on Saturday evening.

The fans are now severely being tested with a 14 day break before a clash against winless Sheffield Wednesday at Deepdale. In a week where the chairman announced his resignation, the captain transferred will the manager be next to leave Deepdale?
