Preston fans were left impressed by Swansea City’s performance at Deepdale on Saturday with some of their supporters relieved to get a point from the game.

“I’’ve come away from Deepdale on numerous occasions wondering how we’ve only managed to get a draw, but yesterday I walked off feeling grateful that we’d hung on for a draw. Swansea are a good football team who gave us a football lesson at times. They should be around the playoffs come the end of the season. They seem to be lacking a bit of consistency.”

“Swansea were far neater than us, with a lot more off ball movement but I’d say in real chances created it was equal, therefore a draw was probably fair, despite Swansea dominating the game.”

One Preston fan was also impressed with our build-up play for our 55th-minute goal:

“The movement for their goal was excellent. Better right backs than TC would have egg on their faces after being turned inside out twice. More of it being a very well worked goal than a defensive deficiency.”

Not every fan was overly impressed though:

“Swansea are no great shakes; plenty of nice, neat passing but little end product, even against the 2nd worst defence in the division. Don’t see them making the playoffs.”

“Just home and have to say bluntly, that was a really poor excuse for a game of football. Preston were very poor and Swansea were only marginally better.

We deserved a point but nothing more.”

It wasn’t only Swansea fans who were left baffled by the penalty decision either:

“Still don’t know how we got that pen either.”
