Oppos Views – Preston

View from the opposition – Preston 30th Oct 2010

A bit about you:

Name:  Geoff Ollerton

Current home town: Preston      

Birthplace: Preston

How long have you supported your team? 40 odd years

Overview of your club:

Favourite thing about your home ground: It's a REAL football ground and not one of those plastic 'arenas' like most of the new stadiums

Favourite match played by your team & why:  Leeds 4 v 6 Preston – first team ever to score SIX against that horrible lot at Elland Road need I say more ?….


Favourite player of all time who played for your club: Mike Elwiss / Alex Bruce (not the guy that played for Brum)  Most famous player was Sir Tom Finney

About our forthcoming match against you:

Your favourite current player in your squad and why? Don't have favourites but Keith Treacy is getting pretty close 

Player in your squad we should most fear and why? Keith Treacy, Sean St Ledger,  both in top form at the moment, and the two Man U kids if they are fit to play. They both got physically assaulted at Burnley and haven't played since.

Player in our squad you most fear and why? I’m sorry but I don’t really know any of them.

Up and coming prospect in your squad? Adam Barton is a future Premier League player – well according to our manager he is 🙂  

Where do you think you’ll finish this season? Struggling to reach mid table

How do you think you’ll do against us? The double – lol I always say that.

Any other comments?  Hope we see two good games between us this season but why on earth have you given that mercenary the managers job?
