Their main CF is a poor finisher, hence why he's scored less goals than his xG, and Peterborough's overall record being similar.

Barnsleys draw leaves them above us if they win the game in hand with no recourse to take that ground from them on our own merit. We had that chance and didn't take it. Way too early for not being in our own hands etc. A draw was the best result for us tonight. SKRam and Carnero 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's still a lot of points to play for and no one will win every game, there will be surprise results and drama right through to the last couple of games. Its going to be mighty close but there's no reason at all why we can't sneak that 2nd spot. SKRam and Premier ram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can imagine his interview with the narcissistic fatty and his cringeworthy CEO probably went similar to this. uttoxram75 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 Best result tonight in terms of the Barnsley Bolton draw. A shame Peterborough are coming up on the rails. With Portsmouth off in the distance, it's turning into a 4-horse race for second spot: There will be twists and turns, but we can't afford too many. Ten games to go. Seven wins and we're in the mix, eight wins and we're probably over the line. Obviously the Bolton game has massive significance and is "must not lose". uttoxram75 and Dean (hick) Saunders 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaltRam Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 A draw is the best result, 2 points dropped for each side, and takes a point out of the league. Time for us to go on a run of wins. One or two of the others will. Got to up the standards of play for that to happen. MarsdenRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't know whether Wycombe's penalty was valid and I doubt that if she'd watched the replay Rebecca Walsh does either - I was similarly unconvinced about the penalties against Bolton and Shrewsbury, just to name two other contentious decisions. Then there was Wildsmith's red card at Bolton, so I think you can't ignore the evidence that questionable reffing decisions have cost us more points than gained us points.

Seven wins and we're in the mix, eight wins and we're probably over the line. Obviously the Bolton game has massive significance and is "must not lose". Peterborough returning to form is largely down to the return of Poku. 1 win and 4 points in the 5 games he was out injured. 3 wins and 9 points in the 4 games he's been back. They've only lost 2 league games since Spetember the 2nd with Poku in the side.Let's hope he was rushed back and picks up another injury.
