v Preston (h) - 31/1/2025 - k/o 20:00

[...]

Are sales going to be pushed for this like the Burnley game? We're lucky to have two close rivals and should be capitalising on this media wise. 

Would like to see the big flags back out for this one too and make a spectacle of it. These games are our opportunity to drive sales in a way that other games don't quite cut it.

Sky night game in January at £30+ on a poor run of form against the very much secondary local rival, tough sell this one - though PNE will have 6000+ there so job done for Swag regardless.

I know it's not a patch on those rat eaters down the road but atleast build something up and create something to get the bodies down. We know they've not a sausage between them down there they should be upselling all the locals as big games for walk ons

Nobody is interested unfortunately.

Expect around 18/19k thanks to the away support.

By the time kick off come around we won't have been massively let down in another local derby for at least 648 hours.

Was thinking of going but those rats ain't getting another penny off me

[JHRover]

The club and owners have made their intentions and ambitions quite clear (again) for anyone in any doubt 

By next Friday the small remaining window to change course will have almost gone entirely.

They've no right to expect anyone to hand over their hard earned money for YET ANOTHER televised non-Saturday 3pm home game. 

[Penwortham Blue]

If they don’t step up and show the slightest bit of ambition, bringing in some signings that people consider reasonable or stretching it I know, decent or even exciting. Then, I think it will probably be the lowest home fans attendance for this fixture, for many a year.

Why do Nobbers (and Dingles) always get us when we've got injuries and never get us when we're in form.

[Upside Down]

4-0 Away win.

Because we are not, in form, that often.

[Lancaster Rover]

Costing me a fortune is the new sky deal, I’m passing up overtime to watch us put in our worst performance of the year (it always is) to watch PNE once again beat us at Ewood with Dolan doing his best job of showing them they missed out on absolutely nothing 

[G Somerset Rover]

I cannot tell you just how much I am convinced we’re losing this one. It’s never a good fixture at Ewood at the best of times, let alone after one win in nine.

Smells of bitter disappointment even six days away. 

[BankEnd Rover]

We could slump to 11th come 5pm next Saturday.

After the nobbers beat us, they will be 2 points behind. Not sure how we win this really, they haven't lost in their last 5 games. 
 

 

[MarkBRFC]

This will be the easiest 3 points of the season for Preston.

Whilst im not convinced they are that good, they will just run all over us, bigger, stronger, quicker, more athletic.

Rovers 0 Preston 2

[aletheia]

Funny old game -you never know. We could revert to our early season MO -low block (yes I know), nick a goal and defend like er, something that defends very hard. 🙂

Same script as per recent games. Lots of effort and very little quality.

Preston in pretty good form coming into this. Heckingbottom has started to get decent results out of them

Rovers 1 - 2 PNE

That fella of theirs who bit Beck in the previous fixture will probably score the winner to make it even worse. It's Blackburn Rovers heritage.
