Preston reaction

Preston North End boss Billy Davies was understandably delighted to see his side end Coventry’s 13-match unbeaten record and stretch their advantage over the teams outside the play-offs to 8 points.

He said after the 1-0 win: ‘I think this is as good a win as we have had this season.

If you look at the team, the average age was 25 or 26 and these young lads have come in and played extremely well against a team that hasn’t lost for 13 games at home.’
