PW: Well joining us here at Deepdale is Joey Jones. Well Joey what can you say about the result (Joey laughs).
JJ: I thought the lads played really well, apart from Peter Ward. (Joey laughs)
PW: Well Joe, it was, err, a well-taken goal. I thought, I think everybody missed that, but Peter Ward is claiming it. What do you say?
JJ: Well I don't know about Peter Ward claiming that, in fact if nobody else does I will (Peter laughs) because, err, I seem to do more shouting than the rest of the team and, err, on the day, apart from yourself, I thought I was the happiest player.
PW: And what about in the last couple of minutes, Peter Ward made a great break down the middle and someone shouted, 'Where's the taxi?'
JJ: Well, err, I think it was Kevin Russell, you made a great run down the middle, Peter Ward and Kevin said 'You'll need to catch a bus back'.
PW: Thank you very much Joey. Thank you.
JJ: But other than that he wasn't too bad and it's a great three points for us and puts us a point behind Preston. But a long way to go.
PW: Got a few people to prove a few things to?
JJ: Pardon?
PW: A few things to prove, a few things to...
JJ: That's easy for you to say Wardy. (Joey laughs)
PW: Should've put my teeth in to talk. (Joey laughs)
JJ: Do you think we'll get our own show?
PW: What's that Joe?
JJ: Do you think we'll get our own show? (Joey laughs)
PW: Reeves and Mortimer?
JJ: Ward and Jones.
PW: I don't think so after this.
JJ: No, it was a great result and, err, it's nice to come here cos I don't think we've won here in years.
PW: Yeah, last year was disappointing.
JJ: Very disappointing, aye.
PW: The game flared up a bit didn't it?
JJ: Yeah, yeah.
PW: A bit dire.
JJ: Yeah, yeah. Should have cancelled it really cos they beat us.
PW: The coffee and tea was nice though, and I had about ten biscuits at half-time.
JJ: Oh, at half-time, that's the reason you couldn't run second half.
PW: No, I couldn't play, I was up in the stand injured.
JJ: Oh, that's the reason then?
PW: That's why I couldn't run. (Ward laughs)
JJ: Yeah, someone dropped a pie on your foot and you couldn't play for a month. (Both laugh)
(Joey puts on a motorcycle helmet)
JJ: It was a hard match, they were throwing balls in that box all day so we had to be prepared.
