    Well well well, no sooner do Preston have a goal disallowed, do they find the net.

    Aston Villa loanee Cameron Archer makes no mistake to send Ryan Lowe's side ahead.

    That's the first goal Hull have conceded since their takeover.

    Deary me, this is not going well for Bristol City. Blackpool pad their lead out to three goals soon after the restart.

    It's about getting form and fitness back for Matty Longstaff in his move to Mansfield. He's going to have to make sure he's got his shin pads on though, as I imagine he'll be involved in few midfield battles!
