Oh heck Jim. I wanted to say "hate" and used the euphamism instead. Hate is a bit harsh but I still see that goal in the last minute or so the ball hitting the bar and bouncing back on Alan Kelly and ...... .......... dammit! I was right behing that goalmouth,

I was there too Noel. That was the last straw for me. I emigrated two weeks later, May 16, 1964.

Big game this weekend Noel, West Ham, usually a North End bogey team. They not only beat us in the '64 Final, but did you know that back in....what was it...'49, when North End won their way back into the old First Division ? Well that season North End had an unbeaten run of some twenty games or more between two losses to....you got it..West Ham. And in the loss that ended that run at Deepdale, Sir Tom missed a penalty !! What a memory !! Now where did I leave my glasses ;-)))

[noel]

Ah but we've won the last couple of games against them home and away. I STILL hate them though, not confident about tomorrow at all.

Have faith Noel, It`s going to be 2-1 to us. Goals scored by Nugent ans Alexander.[:I]

[Spitfire]

Sorry! Did I say Alexander? [:p]

West Ham 1 - Preston NE 2

Another great result and looking good for staying in the play offs...

What's happening. It doesn't seem right.

Jim; You called that one alright. You should plan a visit to Las Vegas ;-))
