I didn't see all of the game but I think the 14 players Preston fielded today were all white.
If true, that's remarkable - can it be said of any other team playing in the top four divisions today?

Preston have two black lads who are first team regulars - Darnell Fisher and Daniel Johnson. However, they were both missing yesterday through suspension and injury.
I watched WBA on TV the other week, and only one of their players was , I think, white. Not that it matters in this day and age but it is unusual. Only Glatzel, Tomlin, Pack and Flint were in our line-up yesterday. We've come a long way since the 1970s thankfully , and the globalisation of the game has seen players from all over the world come to us. We have had players of all nationalities play for City (well not all), China, Australia, various African countries, Germany, Netherlands, France, Denmark, Slovakia, Slovenia, Hungary, Iceland, Norway, Benin, Gabon, Ivory Coast, USA, Canada, Phillipines, Japan, to name some. And we are just a provincial FL club.
I think fleetwood don’t have even 1 black player in their whole squad
It doesn't matter if its an all black team or an all white team, you should be picked on merit not because you tick a box.
Who were the French side we played pre season? Their starting eleven were all black .
