Home Tie Against Forest

Preston have been drawn at home to Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup 3rd Round. Billy Davies will return to Preston after already taking three points at Deepdale earlier this season. The match will take place in early January with ticket prices likely to be reduced. Preston were without a manager for their third round game last season and it is unclear whether Ferguson will still be in charge when the New Year comes around. The match is likely to be Preston's lowest attendance in recent times.
