The Lilywhites
Known to supporters as The Lilywhites, Preston North End carries a history dating back to 1880 and a matchday culture centred on Deepdale. Sir Tom Finney Stand and Bill Shankly Kop help give the ground its character, while English champions (1888/89 and 1889/90) and FA Cup winners (1889 and 1938) provide enduring reference points in the club’s story.
