You're asking t'wrong one ?
I'm not being funny or anything but why are you on about something that 'could' have happened. It didn't and we move on.
Some fans just love to moan win lose or draw.
I'm sure you're personality almost makes up for it.?

because had it of happened (which it obviously very easily could have) then it would have changed the game entirely

The tackle was poor and his performance as a whole was poor too.
It’s not too big of a deal because we won, but I doubt he’ll be a regular in our midfield anytime soon. Tackling, passing, positioning, in fact basically just everything in his game is rash.

Moaning moaning moaning
What do you expect? For him to drop into the team with a masterclass performance?
He did a good job today, a run of games would have him performing better, first half against Blackburn Pearson wasn’t much either.
We’ve just won 3-1, we are second, todays was potentially a banana skin but everyone did there bit.
But some people just have to find fault.
Just try smiling and enjoy what’s happening at PNE.

No tin hat needed (well, some posters will probably take it personally...so maybe). I don't rate him at all either.
No questioning his commitment and effort, but I think he's lacking in quality for a club wanting to be knocking of the door of the Prem.

I’m giving my opinion on Ryan Ledson, which is what this thread is about. Not the team as a whole or the performance, which were excellent for 75 minutes.
As for what I expect from him, the basics would be a start, but he isn’t very good at them.
If you would prefer this forum to be an echo chamber that’s up to you. I’ll keep giving my opinion on individual players whether our results are good or bad.

Ledson mistimed a few challenges before his booking but after that he showed good maturity in holding back . Thought he had a good game today and he's coming along nicely for the future. Gally usually plays well when Pearson alongside him does well, the fact Gally was excellent today is another pointer to how effective Ledson was today.
I don't think that Ledson is really going to improve until he gets more game time - and I'm not talking about the Barrow game or fa cup rd3. We know that Pearson will probably be missing 3 or 4 times a season, and if Ledson is going to be his deputy he needs more experience from the bench in between those starts.

I was sat AKTE side of the Invincibles and as soon as he made the challenge I said red card. Was shocked and relieved that the ref only booked him. Thought the ref was one of the biggest homers we’ve had at Deepdale in a long time, every 50/50 went our way. Not complaining though!
Gallagher carried the midfield today. They ran straight through us every time as soon as he went off. Ledson being on a yellow card won't have helped in that regard as it probably held him back in getting stuck in towards the end, and he was fortunate it wasn't a red.
Don’t agree on the red card and certainly don’t agree on the ref being a homer!

Fair point about us just enjoying the result, but do you think AN won't review the game and look at things that were great, but equally things that were poor, or could be improved upon?
Some people are perfectionists, and whilst enjoying what is good, will also focus on what could be improved upon.
I think it's unfair to accuse someone of moaning, for simply being of the opinion that a particular player didn't have the best of games. Even if said player was part of a team that won the game.
Might sound harsh to some. Others will fully understand it.
Exactly the point I was going to make. Kayal did not even get a card yet some Nobbers fans with short memories are saying Ledson card should have been red. What bollocks - we need less cards in the game not more so stop giving justification to card happy refs who are ruining football. Yes it was a poor decision by Ledson to go in for the challenge in a non threatening area of the pitch but it looked a fraction late to me (from the Finney & right in line) albeit with his foot being high (where the ball was) ie a football incident not a malicious foul. A booking was correct decision imo. Shame the Town player had to go off (never want to see that) but bad injuries can happy even when there isnt a challenge, eg Everton's Gomes last week.

He is reckless in the tackle, and whilst his passion and eagerness to impress is appreciated, think it's about time he knocked it on the head- I don't think there's any player I've seen who I'm more concerned will get himself sent off in a PNE shirt.
