Hold on so our reserves beat a weakened side they put out in the cup? I can only imagine you are referring to Gillingham because we lost to Portsmouth, Fulham and Arsenal kids. Gillingham are 16th in League 1.

The other top 6 team we beat last month? Accrington (11th), Blackpool (15th) or Gillingham (16th). I think you need to look at the league table or did we win an U23 game or something? It is the league that matters and the stat is worrying.

gillingham were 6th before we beat them, accrington were 6th before we beat them. now they're 11th with 4 games in hand.

play like we did against sunderland without the doz situation and we win more than we lose

then played his proper blokes ahead of them? that's the one!


Yes, I could never understand MM not playing Dozzell and Bishop just because they were injured.

doz wasn't injured all the time, he just wasn't a proper bloke, same with bish after he'd recovered.

downes wasn't injured, he just was no jonathan douglas, same with the others...

Bless you for arguing pointless statistics & sticking up for the Dortmund makeweight for 3 pages now, but I was hoping tonight’s hot thread might be a tad more exciting than the Portugal v France yawnfest.

Any views on vegans, Trump, Corbyn, marble layered cake or COVID 19 that might spice my evening up a bit?

Lambert out.

Who said they were rubbish. Crewe were outstanding, MK were decent enough, but lacked cutting edge.

Seems Cameron Jerome may help with them issues.

we were definitely going downhill that season.

from 4 freak wins (1st)
to relegation form (c21st)
if 10 places over a whole season is a death spiral, what's 20 in less than that?!


I shouldn’t bite as you’re obviously trolling, but those stats are made up. Even if the 4 wins at the start were removed we would still have finished comfortably outside the relegation zone, and several places higher than 21st, based on ppg from the remaining games

not trolling, just arguing against the hagiography of saint mick!

48/42 averages out at 52.5 points, which is sometimes relegation form, practically always lower than where we finished the season before, showing the decline of the club which was what we were considering

I can agree, certainly there have been occasions on here some think we should walk this league etc.

Seems Jimmy Walker is of this false mindset.

Think by what I have seen to date this season League 1 looks more competitive this year than last.

That worries me because we finished 11th last.

It was actually 44/38 for the rest of the season under McCarthy - which averaged across the season would have seen us avoid relegation by 12 points

Crewe are probably one of the best passing teams in L1. They passed us off the park - unless you count the hundreds of pointless passes we made between central defence and goalkeeper. They lack real punch in attack - but if they solve that, they will be up there in the top 6.

Indeed. Darren Ferguson called them the best footballing side in League 1 ahead of their match today. I watch that one, dominated and passed Posh off the park.

Left hand side of Kirk + Pickering was outstanding, Ryan Wintle in midfield ran the game, Luke Offord CB was the ultimate modern CB, quick, very comfortable on the ball, confident.

However Mandron (former Col U) striker leads the line so well but doesn’t look at though he’ll score enough, very Ollie Hawkins esc.


They were a joy and a pleasure to watch this afternoon.

I like Seablu and he and I tend to be on the same page on most things, but he's no right bringing [chocolate] marble layer cake into this.

To be fair whenever this all crops up I think the truth is many of us are still in some kind of delayed shock.

It's denial; none of us can honestly believe we are where we are so expect us to storm our way out of it.

But when you look around the table there's some previously big names in there; ex-established Championship and Prem clubs and their fans must feel the same indignant way as we do. All equally delusional perhaps, but understandable.

Given the resources at Artell's disposal, what a damning indictment of the coaching set-up at Peterborough and Ipswich.

The standard of this league isn't very good.

If we play to our max every game, i firmly believe we should beating most. However that is unlikely as it is with the other "top" teams. None of us are that good that we will go on a 10 match winning run.

Crewe apparently did look decent so im not sure anyone was saying their not very good.

I think there was a question about are they good or did we make them look good. I’m sure the same discussion is currently being carried out on the Peterborough forum.

Indeed, no real surprise.

I know we’ve got an average manager with predominately average players.

I think Posh have an average manager with better players.


Resources available is fine, it’s how you use the resources. We clearly don’t have transfer fees, but wages are higher than the rest.

That’s not a good thing, just another sign that we are overpaying average footballers who really should be on bang average wages at Shrewsbury/Swindon and co.

We were very lucky to beat Crewe. Better side.


But we took our chance and worked very hard against them. Unlike Sunderland and Lincoln, we didn’t have a referee deciding to fck Crewe over on a whim. We beat them, Sunderland and Lincoln beat us with a 12th man.

We have a very poor manager, probably the worst in the division. The jury's out on the players whilst that's the case.
