Burnley serving up their usual dull fest at PNE.  Not easy on the eye but their organisation is terrific.  You can see that defensively, every man knows his job.

11 consecutive cleansheets for Trafford.

Good job it's not like taking a ball home after a hat-trick; he could open a hotel!

Stockport, Charlton and Huddersfield all with tough games today - I can’t see any of them winning, maybe a draw for Stockport or Huddersfield.

Your pre-match predictions about as good as mine 😀

Although I did have bets on Blackpool's 7th consecutive home draw and PNE 0 Burnley 0.

My one goal wins it at Shrewsbury thankfully wide of the mark.

Anyway, I honestly don't care what anyone else does, this season is all about SS making us look like a team again.

Not taking anything away from Trafford (genuinely) but I bet Southwood would keep clean sheets in most games behind that defence.  They don't seem to give the opposition a sniff (apart from those 2 pens he saved obviously).

Strange to say but they still seem to be under achieving, not sure how Parker has got that squad scoring so few.

The outstanding defence is a clue, plus they downgraded their PL strikers last summer - but today they had plenty of chances against a resurgent Preston.

4 minutes that VAR took. Killing football.

Nonsense wasn't it?  If it's not clear and obvious and the flag didn't go up, why not just give the benefit to the attacking side and award the goal?

Top keeper. Can see a decent prem club coming in for him in the summer.

Think that’s unfair. He’s saved pens in this run as well as plenty other shots. He’s a great keeper.

Nice to see Sky showing a bottom half of the table match rather than always focussing on the big clubs today

Six 0-0s in 10 games has to be some sort of record too.  

[Tonge moor green jacket]

If promoted, you'd imagine they would need to add a goal or two more.

Which was their promise.

I hope it's different when Assisted Dying is introduced or it'll become like a Benny Hill chase with a man with a huge syringe running after people with paper cuts.

Wish Trafford and Bradley all the best in the world and hope they win a shitload of trophies.... They were both fantastic for us and loved being here.

With you on the sentiment but all this success at their next clubs please.

Four of the top 6 League One teams in action tonight which should tidy up the games in hand picture. Would love them all to lose but that can’t happen and I’m in a bit of a dilemma about Wrexham v Orient.

Draw. Was thinking about this earlier. Then we beat them and all is well.

Not sure why you’ve a dilemma lusty, we surely want Wrexham to beat Orient because although we might scrape a top six spot there’s no way we’re challenging the automatics?
