Kevin Pressman

5

Real drop in form - despite some good saves, could and should have communicated with his defence better. Let's hope Walker is getting better quickly!

Chris Makin

5

Let Preston in for the first goal, probably tired from Saturday - you have to give them benefit of the doubt!

Nikos Dabizas

5

A real balls up for the first goal, was substituted soon afterwards. Uncharacteristically poor.

Matt Heath

5

Panics - looked better for a while, but then lost it again!

Danny Tiatto

7

A good performance, but let down by a team without his battling spirit.

Jordan Stewart

4

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO - He is not good enough!!!! Wasted a cross in the last minute by shooting and hitting a throw in! That sums him up!

Joey Gudjonssen

6

Better performance from Joey - He was up for it, running back, defending. Impressed. Took penalty well - stood up to Preston's time wasting tactics well.

Gareth Williams

7

At last - I've seen glimpses of what we've paid money for! He was also getting back and defending.

James Scowcroft

7

City's best player this season didn't let the side down again. He was energetic and looked hungry for the ball, even when his legs were letting him down towards the end.

Tommy Wright

5

Disappointed to say he didn't do himself any favours - was muscled off the ball to easily and looked out of his depth.

Nathan Blake

5

OK - he scored a goal, but was fairly hopeless apart from that. Singularly failed to control more than a handful of balls or win a handful of headers. Still, at least he's consistent

Subs

Keith Gillespie

6

Some of his wing work was excellent, but he was caught in posession for the third goal. Needs to play it easy!

Matt Elliott

6

Must be confused by what he's playing in! Hopefully his return to the team can see a return of spirit!

Jason Wilcox

6

OK - failed to keep it simple!
