The PNE number 44 speaks to the Lancashire Post with the Lilywhites top of the Championship - and him having signed a new contract this week
Back to PNE matters and Potts believes the table topping form is testament to the team environment which has been created. It is Potts’ sixth season at Deepdale and he sees a squad with all the ingredients to succeed. Togetherness has been spoken about a lot by manager and players and Potts believes there is a positive freshness in camp.
“Yeah I think there is,” said Potts. “Obviously a few lads have left and there has been a bit of a change, even with the staff. There is a total fresh feel to it and I think everyone is enjoying themselves. It does seem like more of a team this season and we’ve always kind of built the Preston changing room on spirit.
“But I think this season even more, due to the fact the teams in the league this season are going to make it tough. We knew team spirit was going to be massive and I think you can see on the pitch that we’re all working and fighting for each other, even more than we ever have done. We sat down, we’ve had someone come in and the lads have sat down with each other.
“I think it is probably once or twice a month, just to try and talk through things and see how things are going on and off the pitch. We need to make sure we keep on top of that and I think we’re a club that doesn’t have finances like others, so we need to find another way to win games and compete with the other teams. So, anything we can do to improve us, we will be doing it.”
