Of watching Blackburn v Preston? Baffling how PNE are anywhere close to the top six.

Fortunately, playing well at Blackburn isn't a prerequisite for being in the top six.

Yes. Switched off at half time. Awful game.

Battled to a hard earned point after 165 minutes of thrilling action!

It genuinely baffles me when people argue that this isn’t a particularly low quality Championship this season.

That sixth play off spot has the potential to accommodate something quite awful this season and then we’re in lottery territory…

The chance of Preston and Derby stinking their way into the PL is becoming a very real possibility.

Thankfully, we’ll have sealed a top two finish and can watch that potential horror unfold with a mixture of morbid bewilderment and barely-disguised amusement.

PNE was anything but dull in the 1950s, and I believe the Fifties is part of history.

The fact we lost to Preston, Oxford, Charlton and Leicester shows what strength in depth this league holds!

Preston are dreadful and a complete representation of most of the division.

Play it safe, squeeze the space, congest the midfield, don’t concede, hope to nick one on the break or from a set-piece and sh1thouse throughout keeping the ball out of play as long as possible.

It’s like the bastard son of Pulis, Allardyce and John Beck.

Blackburn get a pass because they've got the best badge in football. Beaut.

Very few people I’d expect.

Like the fact that the late winner has fcked Leicester up a tiny bit more though.

Certainly can't argue with the assessment that it is low on quality.

I would argue that doesn't make it easy. Indeed, when teams go toe-to-toe playing football the best footballing team usually wins (but sometimes doesn't). It is when teams know their limitations and use all means they can to stop the opposition winning and try to snatch something out of the game that it can become very tough. Especially if those teams are very effective at doing that. Clearly several teams in the top 6-10 are very capable at stopping teams playing.

It's the poorest quality Championship for a lot of years.
