After the good old tram, buss, train, airplane and train ride to Preston it`s allways great to get the first couple of beers in. A quite night out with a generouse amout of beef and beer the Branch men sleeps well at their hotell of choice, the Preston int. Game day starts off as usual getting up at 12:00 walking down to Starbucks getting some cup`o Joes in and just wander around town looking for trainers and such.
We all appreciate a bit of sun don`t we and it`s not much that beats the walk to Deepdale when the sun shines on your face and the hangover leaves your head. Getting to the stadium an hour or so before the game is preferable. Good times just standing outside in the sun feeling the buzz and watching the happy faces of the kids running about.
The Crystal Palace game was not all that and appart from a guy sitting next to us slagging of Parkin untill he left the field it was pretty uneventfull. But as always, fantastic to be at Deepdale. Wallace scored for us and Ambrose for the Eagles. I think I remember that we should have had a penalty, but what`s new.. The Branch men was as most times overdressed, and I don`t mean that in a posh way just that we constantly are bringing with us down jackets when the Prestonians are still rocking tee shirts. 31th of october is pretty damn cold over here. Later though down was good stuff. Don`t remember that much of that night, but I recon it was pretty sweet. Good times in Preston!
