Walked away from Deepdale today feeling very proud of those lads today. Every single one of them gave 100% and then some.

so so pleased for Nmecha too.

i am currently away in the Lakes on holiday and when I woke up this morning, I couldn't see anything but a heavy defeat...

The squad was very threadbare with 3 academy lads on the bench , but what a fantastic effort to get a well deserved point against a side probably worth about £70m.... Abraham, Bolasie, Houriahne, Whelan, Ginn , Hutton etc etc

well done lads - you have made the forums number one pessimist very happy - it almost feels like a win !!

i give everyone permission to get very tipsy tonight !

We were fantastic.

Say one thing as well. For the short time O'Reilly and Walker were on the pitch neither looked over-awed or out of place and O'Reilly was unlucky not to get an assist.

I doubt there was a better game of footy in the country, today.

Great to hear Phil.... I am so pleased for the young lads !!

i bet Villa fans expected to come here and steam roller us by 4 or 5 goals

Best game I’ve seen at deepdale this season, I missed the plastic game. After Boxing Day performance I feared Villa would be out of sight by halftime, Ledson Storey and Hughes immense. We made villa look poor

The one he netted in the first half, which was ruled offside, was reviewed and he was apparently onside.

Any forum posters got any updates on that?

What a sickener for the lad Sid !!
 
Great effort by all the lads today. The lesson is don't underestimate the replacements for injured players and definitely don't write players off before they get a proper chance. Many did it with Moult and are eating humble pie, I reckon many will also have to do the same with Burke, I thought he played very well today. If he can produce the best of his play consistently he will be a force. Looks like a 'proper footballer' to me. Lots of promise.

Absolutely right. Everyone stepped up today and produced a magnificent team performance. Huge credit to the manager as well to get that kind of performance out of such a severely depleted team, particularly given the opposition and after conceding just before half time.
 
Absolutely proud of the boys today. 90% of the crowd today thought Villa were going to breeze through this game (me included) - how wrong we were! It was a privilege to watch every white shirt give 110% for the cause. Stand up every one of you and take a bow.
