for fully respecting our Gentry Day, we were made so very welcome. The Boro fans, police and stewards we met went out of their way to say hello, ask about the day and we even posed with fans for photos in the Fanzone. The lad had a great first Gentry Day ๐๐
I explained the suits, bowlers & Gentry Day many times to very friendly
@WatfordFC
fans yesterday. Fair play the pubs, fans, police and stewards were very welcoming and as other towns & clubs before they seemed to enjoy the day coming to their club.

I am the Godfather to a footy mad little lad today who currently wears the red of Liverpool. His mum and dad are not at all into footy so today, with my help, he starts his journey on the right path! Not your usual baptism presentโฆ.
#pnefc
Not one shot on goal, not moved a muscle all the game, said nothing, did nothing and his assistant sat on the drinks box motionless! He really does not want to be hereโฆ.
In a few short weeks Hecky has changed the mentality of the team & the whole atmosphere at the club on and off the pitch. To hold a PL team who brought on subs worth tens of millions of pounds and to score 16 pens would be unthinkable until he came! Exciting times

The atmosphere inside Deepdale yesterday, especially the last 20 minutes when we were under real pressure, was incredible. A huge crippling weight has been lifted from the club's shoulders and it showed with the energy and noise from the fans not just the players.
#pnefc
The answer is simple....Splash the cash on getting Moyes, not on his salary but on his squad. Fill every seat in the ground,massively raise the club profile in the city and in the national media and just give it a real go for a couple of years....see what happens!

#pnefc
I really hope this is Lowe's last game as our manager. His football is mind numbingly tedious, no shots, no goals, awful man manager, he gives contracts to pointless players, insults fans and talks absolute bollocks! Please make it stop today
@pnefc
A huge thank you to
@pnecommunity
and
@pnefc
for sorting out six Preston North End ties for the funeral of my uncle, Jim Lee, on Thursday. Despite having worsening dementia for a few years the thing that made his face light up was talking Preston North End. Thank You ๐
When we appointed Ryan Lowe it was the most excited Iโd been as a North End fan, I genuinely believed weโd finally got the right man. The club did everything we wanted them to & I looked forward to fast, attacking brand of football. Two years on its miles off and time to change!
I think
@pnefc
deserve some real credit this season for the off the pitch stuff. Ticket prices, getting families to Deepdale, the replica kits design and availability (so many about), the ground catering, the Fanzone is coming on nicely, open training, stadium roof refurb 1/2
Not only have
#derbycounty
been relegated they have got the tyre kicker buying them with post office savings book and a business plan written on a hanky ๐๐๐
Every manager weโve blamed Theyโve been booed, berated sacked or jacked,
Top players sold for buttons or contracts allowed to run down, paid off players who never kicked a ball,
Crap kits, poor club shop & dire cateringโฆsecond winter in a fanzone tent
One constant!

It's superb having a real manager at last.....it's been a while but we've got a belter now! We would he be crumbled with the previous incumbent,.,..we are on the way back!
#pnefc
Superb performance from North End at home finally yesterday. Better formation, attacking intent, shots, goals, solid at the back, endeavour & some passion as a team. That is all we ask from Lowe, we donโt expect to win every game but give it a go & the fans will back you
#pnefc
Donโt get all the negativity...I want to see the ground packed with โplasticsโ โwoodwork crawlersโ whoever, the real trick is the club building on it...turn them into fans...fill the ground with them for the Brentford game...then have more deals to bring them back!
@pnefc
Big crowds, great footy & the people of Preston connected to the club againโฆWe are on the verge of the biggest opportunity to take the club to the next level in years or the brink of disastrously cementing itโs fate as Prestonโs biggest building & itโs in Peterโs hands!

IS the new eraโฆ.heโs done more to raise the level of interest, belief, morale, hope and expectations of the fans than any previous manager! Every fan I know has gone from despair at the football on offer to now canโt wait for the next game ๐๐๐

Surely you can see what we see now? This is Peterโs Pub Team and we are in mess! Less than 10k home fans, shocking football, arrogance and ignorance from Ridsdale and incompetence from McAvoy and the players! Make the changes now to save
@pnefc

Donโt think sitting at home on your own in the shirt makes you a fan, donโt think standing the pub is the same as a seat in the ground, football is much more than 90 minutes, for just ยฃ12 per game you can be a real fan of your local team. Buy a Season Card today!

What a day, what great pubs, what a game, what an atmosphere, what a result, what amazing team spirit, what a joy putting them back in their box, what a great buzz in town after the game....days like that make it all worthwhile,
@pnefc
There is that feeling of belief and togetherness in the club againโฆ..the Manager pre-match, the fans sticking with the team after their worldly, Potts/Johnson superb, desire to win and keep the ball, Ryan Loweโs celebration at the endโฆ.itโs a great start this! ๐๐
#pnefc
The Lashers official reports they are โsurprised and disappointedโ by their ticket allocation. Why would they be either of those after what they did to us giving us less than Blackburn and Barnsley? Ye reap what ye sow! Wait until they see only one working turnstile ๐๐
#pnefc
The club needs to change and change now! An experienced and previously successful manager is needed. A manager who decides which players he wants. The team is poor, the tactics are appalling, the football is crap, 3 wins all season! Starting from the top change now!
#pnefc
When Lowe signed I thought weโd got our man, when Archer scored against Blackpool in a full ground I thought weโre on the way backโฆI so wanted him to be the manager we thought he was!!! But the footy is awful, heโs the only man who canโt see it & thinks we are good..why?

@BBCLancsSport
A huge show of intent and ambition from the North End owners and to be applauded. Unfortunately Leicesterโs riches mean we are outbid but we are heading in the right direction ๐๐๐
My big gripe with the club was the lack of drive to build the brand, to become less reliant on the ownerโs subsidies. The appointment of Lowe, the (albeit) temp Fanzone, the media output, 3 for 2 offers, half season tickets & general fan engagement is a huge step forward
#pnefc
Preston to London Euston on the train is 2hrs 10mins when the train actually runs. The trains are great, the journey time is not the issue itโs the costโฆ..the government would be better spending the shelved

@pnefc
I have been a North End supporter for a very long time but Iโm not sure Iโve seen a better or more genuine reaction from so many fans to a player re-signing for our club! Brilliant news in grim times and faith in pro footballers restored a bit today! ๐๐๐๐

Preston is a fantastic city but there is an odd โthatโs shitโ attitude to anything new including potential new fans at Deepdale. Anytime anybody tries something new in Preston the voices are outโฆitโs crap, not needed blah blah. The same goes for โthe plasticsโ who turn out 1/2
We can swap managers every 18 months for ever but as long as the man in charge remains in charge & hides behind Hemmings this club will never change! Heโs killing our club & itโs all about him! This season is a huge cock up with a full ground seeing how badly he runs it

Great view from the Kop and good to see so many on there and in good voice too despite the players not turning up today! What is it about North End that whenever we get a few more in we play like that no matter who the manager is?
