Is there any way of watching the full 90 mins?! I missed the game, and would love to watch it

Does ifollow do re runs?
 
Some performance and to a man they were fantastic. I said pre match that the Brady knock may prove to be a forced change that benefits us. McCann was excellent and having someone at RWB who doesn’t look to pass backwards and extremely comfortable on the ball, made a refreshing change. All the more frustrating that we have not found a fix for what is a very demanding but critical position in our set up.
Regardless of peoples views of RL, there surely has to be recognition that there is a togetherness in the group. Maybe a bit of siege mentality kicked in to the camp.
I’m sure we would have all taken being in the playoff mix at this stage of the season.

Back the boys and enjoy the ride

UTW!
 
Have to say every credit to the defence last night. People label them as league one players myself included. But they kept a very exciting front four quiet. Coventry hadn’t failed to score in a game since November 11th yet they hardly had a sniff last night.

We are starting to become a unit again defensively like the start of last season.
 
I thought having McCann in midfield was a major plus. He is a more disciplined defensive midfielder than Browne in that he tackles well and holds his position whereas Browne wanders all over the pitch.
I know Browne doesn’t like RWB but he did a good job there and provided a great cross for the absolutely brilliant Riis to score with a very rare headed goal.
Our pressing and counterattacking were superb with Whiteman and Frojkaer providing quick and accurate passes for the magnificent Keane and Riis who scared the living daylights out of their defence.
Our defence was excellent and marshalled again by Lindsay who was faultless.
Millar, back on the left, surprisingly had a quiet game by his standard but overall you couldn’t hope to witness a more superb away performance.
 
I’ve watched their, Coventry, highlights over the season plus a live match and was really impressed by Callum O’Hare, Ellis Simms and Hadji Wright up front for them but last night our defence hardly gave them a sniff and dominated them. Men against boys as their manager said.
 
I didn't see the game just so the clips on here posted by @gazzaholly if anyone has missed them. Good win and well done to RL and the players. Great turn around since half time v Bristol City in Jan. I didn't think we would be near there come about now still but here we are. Playing the best players who should be playing if only he did it early on. Playing some top football as well every credit last night.

Big chance to do something this season still big one v Ull (Hull) next week everyone who can get on the game. UTW.

Huge game coming up against Hull now. Us and Hull are two of possibly five teams scrapping for what looks like the remaining two play off spots. Whilst not necessarily a must win, it's definitely a must not lose. Massive match. Keep going, PNE.

We have beaten Leeds, Ipswich, Coventry and Sunderland at Deepdale and were a few seconds off beating Southampton so the signs are that we are capable of triumphing over Hull.
Up the whites!
