Text Commentary:
1' Preston kick-off, long ball collected by Brian Jensen.
1' Clarets win a free-kick 35-yards from goal. Blake will have a shot here I think, hits it against the wall - falls for Grant tries to get a ball in and he does, but it's not a good one and Chaplow can't keep it in.

8' Cross from Alexander, headed away by West - good header.
8' Clarets surging forward now, Blake was clattered by his man, and wins another free-kick about 35 yards out. Shot from BLAAAKE! Oh, inches wide - fantastic strike from Robbie Blake and Gould appeared to look confused and didn't move.
9' Gnohere fouls Fuller as the two tusste on the edge of the area. Taken quickly and cleared by May despite appeals for handball.

12' Moore goes down under the challenge of Etuhu, referee wants none of it.
12' Little, great ball for Blake, inside for Moore has a shot, but it's blocked - West tries a shot and the ball EVENTUALLY squirms out for a corner.
