Match Summary 12 months ago Harry took his first Pompey team, near the foot of Div One, to Deepdale. ‘I didn’t fancy the job,’ he said at the time. What a difference now! Yak scored after Stone and Harper combined, but Preston pinched a point through McKenna’s 25-yard free-kick at the death. “I thought it was another three points. I couldn’t really see them scoring,” admitted Redknapp, who was disappointed at misses from Paul Merson and Svetoslav Todorov before half-time that would have brought Pompey their first win here for 31 years.
