Who'd be happy coming away with a point ?
Considering we've had two tough games on paper and have 4 points
Peterborough on the other hand have played Fleetwood at home and Oxford away and have 0 points ...not quite what their summer investment was anticipating I'd suggest
With the above considered I'd still take a point |  |

2-1 away win. |  |

If we are serious about promotion and Posh are serious contenders rather than spenders, then 3 points has to be the aim. Get them whilst they're wobbling, put them further out of the race, who knows how valuable it'll be come the end of the season?
We've not established a run of form yet where we can start to play for a point. |  |

If we'd have beaten Sunderland, then maybe, but as we didn't, no.
Want all 3.
It'll also set us up for an extremely winnable game the following Tuesday, at home, v AFC Wimbledon, before Bolton away.
Would be a helluva start. [Post edited 14 Aug 2019 17:13]

Draw is a min - a loss would undo a lot of the good work at Burton and partly Saturday.
If we want top two, then a win really |  |

Would take a point right now, as long as it is backed up with a home wins against Wimbeldon and Shrewsbury in the month. |  |

Thought I heard on the EFL show the other day that Wimbledon hadn't lost away from home since February when they were beaten by Sunderland.
Still, if we can't beat teams like Wimbledon... |  |

This is all very true, especially given the poor start Peterborough have had, we need to put another three points between us and then while we can.
But that said, Sunderland and Peterborough were both games I had is down to draw when I was looking at the first month’s fixtures. |  |

Have to agree . A loss would certainly compound what has been an OK start in terms of points , performances a different story
A point would keep the wolves at bay being my theory though
Obviously I want the 3 !! | |

Fleetwood, Blackpool and Oxford look like they may be among those who do a bit better than people thought. They're certainly not below the 'divide' that seems to exist in League 1. |  | | |

We should be winning this match. Posh are overrated despite their continuous spending. |  |

Has to be a win if we're thinking top two. Point is good if our ambition is no more than top 6. Obviously not literal, as it's too early in the season, but people tend to say 'oh its the start of the season so it doesnt really matter'. Whereas actually, the points hold the same value whenever you get them.
Also seems to be a good time to play them.
Fancy us for 3 points, might need a pen or something in our favour. |  | | |

Always take a point away from home. |  | | |

Got to go for, and hopefully get a win, I don't think Posh are all that, certainly don't see them threatening top two.
If we go there and win the team, and Club start to believe. |  |

No.
The only circumstance would be if it's an all round good game and we equalise late. |  |

We've got to learn how to win again and get into the habit of it.
Garbutt is a big loss, but it will only be a month. Great to see Nolan and Edwards back who have real pedigree in this division.
Two up top and take the game to them. | | | |

I’ll be disappointed if we don’t win.
It does count on the context of the game sometimes mind you. | |

As long as we back it up by beating Wimbledon. 2 points per game average |  | | |

Not really. After the draw against Sunderland and the Cup defeat, we need to restore momentum. |  |

Yep, we have to go for all 3 points and go for top 2.
Play offs are too much of a lottery, although I'm sure there are plenty on the board who would rather have the excitement of it. |  |

In isolation, a draw away to a promotion rival is fine - but in the context of the season, P'boro's poor start and us wanting a bit of momentum, we have to be aiming for the win. |  |

Football...it's a funny old game right?
I'd take a point away from home all day long and be happy if it was a good performance.
Win the home games, make PR a tough place to come, that's the most important thing. Away games maintain the home momentum, if we play well away from home, people will want to be there for the next game.
We don't 'need' to win it at this point in the season, I do want to see us scoring a bit more freely though as even if we lost 4-3, at least we'd have confidence about being able to claw our way back into games etc. |  | | |

Go out to win and be slightly disappointed with a draw!
Rather than MM go to draw.
Points on the board! We are 2 pts behind what we should be on - let’s get winning a feeling we haven’t had for 2yrs. |  | | |
| Saturday on 19:28 - Aug 17 with 2596 views | ITFC_Forever |
After the first five - ten minutes today, a draw would have been a disappointment.
Going in to injury time though, I was delighted with one point. | |
