The Independent now charges for access to articles more than a week old. Nugent's return boosts Preston who gain upper hand in mind games - Jason MellorCopy from Football Unlimited of 30/04/2006.
As a diminutive Scot, Billy Davies claims his main lifetime aim is to reach five feet three, but his Preston North End side clearly have loftier ambitions for him. His quest for added stature is likely to be the only tall order at Deepdale in the next couple of weeks, because the team he has fashioned on modest resources is looking capable of ensuring he becomes the shortest manager in the Premiership. What amounted to an end-of-season stroll was played as though lives depended on the outcome, so heaven knows the commitment levels to be scaled when the sides next meet, at Elland Road on Friday in the second of a trilogy of encounters to contest a place in the Premiership. There is history between the clubs, and with cross-Pennine pride on the line, those expecting a tame affair should have known better. In the past, Preston fans have watched with growing resentment as they have acted as a feeder club for Leeds with four players leaving for West Yorkshire (one of them via West Bromwich Albion).
