[sussexrob]

Would love to be at Deepdale Saturday to show my respect, lets hope for the ground to be full and rocking after a win a perfect tribute to Mr Hemmings .

Saturday is going to be a very emotional day -more emotional than we’d probably care to imagine. That’s a pretty good rallying cry from FM -

 

[Preston Lad]

Wow🥺
Frankie was clearly emotional during that speech and he couldn’t have worded it any better.
Its very hard to believe when you here him say he was at Euxton just last week.

I really hope we get the win on Saturday and Trevors family see just how special he was to us.

What happens now?

A celebration of Mr Hemmings' life.

well said Frankie, got a bit emotional myself listening to that ! I bet the players won’t need much motivation today to put in a performance !

You know what, I never ever buy a paper but my daughter asked me to pick one up for some sort of craft she's doing.

I bought the LEP this morning and yes, Seddon's tribute was lovely, so much so that I've saved the clipping.

Unable to be at Deepdale today, I pay my tribute to PNE owner and legend Mr Trevor Hemmings by wearing a flat cap in his memory like North End fans will do during the match, just like Uncle Trev used to do

It’s a real shame that we couldn’t give Uncle Trev a decent send off with a passionate performance.

Thought both sets of fans more than did their bit today, class. With any semblance of a gameplan I'm sure the players could have done their bit as well!

Atmosphere was absolutely dead until the last 5 minutes but that’s to do with the performance more than anything.

We were gutted that we couldn't be there, but it seems like we dodged a bullet. Very sad.

The atmosphere was good from the time I got in the ground at 2.40 until about 3.05.
Great shame that the performance was so flat especially in the first half.

I agree, there was no apparent gameplan but I can't remember when we last had such a paucity of striking options. To go into the season with Riis, Maguire and Evans as our main options - when we play 2 up front - was totally inexcusable. It's a disgrace that we still haven't replaced Hugill.

As someone else has said, we're sleepwalking to relegation. Traditionally -if we're struggling - we strengthen the squad in January, but that might be too late this time.

Would say last twenty minutes the Town End found their voice, and it was a great noise.

I've always said, the atmosphere doesn't depend on if we're winning, but rather if we're playing well or not.

I have become used to the lack of quality on show at Deepdale over the years but the sheer lack of effort in that first half was inexcusable

Chatting the game is elsewhere.

The honoring of Mr Hemmings was first class, the Derby fans clapped all the way through the video presentation, along with us. The minutes applause was something else.

When Alan Browne put that cap behind the goal I dont mind admitting i got quite emotional.

PNE you made me proud today.

If there was one thing we did right today it was honouring Mr Hemmings.

The whole stadium clapping was really something. Speaking of the cap, where's it going to go?
