Haven’t got link so can’t send it, but did anyone see Jermaine Beckford and Sam Saunders interviews about the game about us? They spoke brilliantly about us, saying we deserved at least a point and David Prutton said that we could/should even ‘expect’ to finish in the top 6 given how good we are.
 
Prutton is very good, spent his time as a pundit doing all the games outside of the premier league and has worked his way up to the host. He was basically the only person Sky had on the books who knew anything about the football league teams.
 
I always think Liam Rosenior is decent, Don Goodman less so.

There's certainly no way Beckford wouldn't have a soft spot for PNE. After his highs at Leeds his career was stalling a bit but came to PNE and had an indian summer which peaked at Wembley may 2015. Couldn't quite do it in the championship after but he did the job required and fans should always be grateful for that.

Doubt he'd have come here if Grayson wasn't the boss given he managed him at Leeds and Huddersfield.
 
While we got some recognition, it wasn’t balanced. I know Beckford was successful at Leeds etc. but it was down to his goals that got us back to the Championship. The only stats I saw of his were in his time at Leeds and no mention of goals/exploits for us. It’s irritating because it’s unbalanced and shit coverage. The amount of errors that I hear every week with regards to our players names is just as bad, sure I read on the BBC live text Blackburn instead of PNE lol.
