Irvine shocked by City rout
20 Apr 2009 - 13:28:23
Preston North End boss Alan Irvine admitted that he was shocked by his side's 6-0 thrashing of promotion rivals Cardiff City.
The stunning Deepdale win kept the Lilywhites in the hunt for a play-off spot and all but ended City's hopes of automatic promotion.
Irvine told the Lancashire Evening Post: "It's still not in our hands. We are waiting to see what happens, but we have kept ourselves in with a chance.
"Before the game the gist of my talk to them was that it's now or never, that they had to go out and do the job.
"But I certainly didn't see this coming. I don't think anyone would have imagined that happening for a moment.
"I don't think Cardiff deserved that either, they are a terrific team full of really good players. I'm sure they will bounce back in the remaining games to come."
