PNE showed relegated City that no one gets a free ride in Championship
Lancashire Evening Post
|August 18, 2025
A great result and performance in the first home match of the season also produced North End's first win of the campaign and builds on the hard-fought point in the opening fixture of the previous Saturday.
Newly-relegated Leicester City strolled out into the Deepdale sunshine looking self-assured in what this fan felt was a touch arrogant.
Yes, their team was stuffed with players from their recent topflight experience, but this is not the Premier League.
Nobody gets a free ride in the Championship, as they found to their cost up against a refreshed-looking Preston side following some savvy dealings by Paul Heckingbottom and his team over the summer.
One of these is the exciting winger/wing-back Thierry Small, who walked away with the man-of-the-match award.
