100% sarcastic, though our record is, in some ways, better than we think up there.

We've won 15 times at Deepdale, a joint club record with wins at Nottingham Forest, though we've played 50 games in Preston and only 31 at Forest.

12 of our wins have been by a single goal, 2 were by a 2 goal margin (both 3-1) and there was a 6-2 win up there in 1962.

We've lost 25 times up there, by no means a bad record at any ground for the number of visits, but the manner of them is quite extraordinary.

Lost by 1 goal - 4
Lost by 2 goals - 5
Lost by 3 goals - 7
Lost by 4 goals - 3
Lost by 5 goals - 1
Lost by 6 goals - 3
Lost by 7 goals - 1
Lost by 9 goals - 1

21 defeats have been by 2 goals or more. 16 have been by 3 goals or more. We've lost as many by 5 goals or more than we've lost by 2 goals or fewer.

We've conceded 119 goals at Deepdale in 50 games - that's almost 2.5 a game. Whenever we've lost up there, we've conceded 3.76 goals a game on average. Our second worst venue for conceding is QPR, where we've conceded 90 goals in 41 trips. In defeats at Deepdale alone, we've conceded 94 goals in 25 games.

However, we've scored 53 goals at Preston, our 2nd best record away from home, just one goal fewer than we've scored at Bristol City.

How have we done when Blobby Madley has refed us?

How have we done when Blobby Madley has refed us?

2 wins, 3 draws, 2 defeats according to soccerbase. Wins over Birmingham away and Wigan home, draws against Coventry, Hull (PL) and Reading (when we won promotion) and defeats in the last 2. It'll be the first time he's reffed us twice in a season, unless I've missed one when looking over the games he's reffed.

Thanks, good stats considering what a tw&t he is!

Apparently, all welsh teams have had bad decisions from him, with Swansea and Newport's fans hating him.

Can’t City say they don’t want that clown taking charge of their games based on decisions given against us in the last two matches of ours he was in charge of?

Put your money on City to get a pen. Pay back time from Madley.

You can add Nottingham Forest to that list.

You’re a bit out with your geography there, Nottingham hasn’t moved into Wales

As a retired cartographer I thought that this map may help.locate Nottingham and it's geographical location in respect of Wales:

It's someone who keeps a record of them on graph paper, you fool

I thought it was someone who photographs them.

Read that as Bob Marley

I bet he would make a good ref

He'd never give a pelanty though. He'd just tell players to Get Up, Stand Up.
