Albion arrive at Deepdale in prime form having won their last two games 4-0, one at Bristol City and the other against Leeds although it has to be said that Leeds seemed to have, Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles, David Blunkett and Jeff Healey in their back four. (YOU may have to google Healey)
Leeds were shocking but you can only beat what is in front of them and this is what Albion did. Having seen the match down their was not over impressed with them in fact thought we should have won that day. However their bad run is over and Albion seem to be getting close to their best again although did get thumped 4-1 at Cardiff a couple of weeks ago. Hughton seems to have pulled a rabbit out of the hat by signing Knockheart although should keep him away from last minute penalties. Two highly influential Israeli internationals in their squad Hemed and Kayal, the highly rated Stephens and that Zamora bloke who we have a bit of history with, they have also signed Steve Sidwell on loan not a bad signing to say the least. So a tough one for North End.
The players still think we have a chance of the play offs so maybe it's time to be bold at home and go for the kill instead of the narrow one goal victories, hopefully 442 this week, no news on Beckford, Grimshaw, both must be getting close to fitness however getting information about injured players at North End is non existent. Gallagher still awaiting a hernia operation and as we have three games in the next seven days expect him to play in this but not the other two, but there again what do I know absolutely zip.
One piece of information though sounds like Brownhill will be signing a new contract.

Why should a man go to work, if he has the health and strength to stay in bed?
