Peterborough away thread.
 

Assuming no return for any injured personal one enforced change with Charles away, so stick with same side McConville upfront with Smyth could be interesting hopefully will make kick off as appointment at hospital at 14-10pm. Wife,s driving so she,ll have to put her foot 🦶 down on the accelerator instead of me.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Following the players Zoom meeting this week with us fans there won't be any injured players returning today.........Seamus doubtful for Easter games and Colby only an outside chance of malking one of the Easter games......all quiet on Joe....maybe a chance for today or Easter.....

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

No one back today. Seamus progressing well started jogging no reaction so fingers crossed.
Dion best be involved midweek or else depriving us of his services makes no sense.
Could be tough today.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

personally think if we get a point today its a great result.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

need sean to step up to the plate today.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Expected XI today, Paul in for Dion and Joe Maguire keeps his place :)

Good to see Barclay getting a good run of games :)

:) :) :)

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

He's well overdue a goal.....but will settle for a couple of assists today!

Wonder who the designated penalty taker will be in Dion's absence?

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Smyth I would have thought, but for me, it would be Butcher, or Burgess :)

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Massive improvement on last week ;)

:) :) :)

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

My i follow picture is very blurred! Anyone else having same issue?

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

3 minutes in and 0-0, what a boring game ;)

:) :) :)

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Awful truly awful defending

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Burgess in no mans land for the second, just standing there after the first shot.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Switching off. This is painful.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Truly awful Second goal lost possession wide open to counter attack long day ahead just gifted one of the better sides a 2 goal lead and probably the 3 points.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

We can see you sneaking out

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

A trifle embarrassing methinks 28 ?.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Three at the back clearly does not work at this level for us! Could say it is only two and a half at the back because Hughes has been so slow and out of position. More proof, a third goal just conceded, as I am typing this, wide open on the flanks!

Commentator just said he is surprised Accy are sticking with three at the back because they are wide open!

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Well we just aren't at the races today and that's the entire team but isn't the first time we have had a hiding here don't think any missing players would make a difference being completely outplayed all over the park damage limitation now for goal difference.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Posh are better than us Bob !.. nuff sed ?

BUT while there’s life there’s... what am I rambling on about ?.:)

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Cannot agree Andy. Playing wrong formation with wrong tactics!
Not just our players playing poorly.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Substitution and formation change just done. Exactly as I suggested!
:gooddog:

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Mark injured !.. time for Plan B ?..
Enter Jon Russell ! :alright:

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Bit of both but too late a reaction at 3-0 every body could see it including the commentary team but also credit to Posh they exploited it to perfection pace and good ball control and finishing, better team on the day so far.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Seriously ?
You don't think Charles Bishop Sykes Conneely Pritchard would make a difference ?
Aside from Baxter.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Thought you had gone home, I,m trying to get behind the lads that are playing 2 more limped off we are being beaten by a better side sure but we haven't thrown like some the towel in hit the bar half chance for Nottingham, we haven't those players available like many games consigned to history but you go with the cards that are dealt.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Sometimes this forum baffles me.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Played a bit better since the formation change.
Twenty eight is correct with his list of six players who would definitely make a significant difference!
IMHO Four four two is the regular formation to play. I have said before that 4-4-2 ‘basically’ becomes 2-4-4 when you attack. This maintains the central core of the team structure down the centre of the pitch. The two wide midfield players have to be mobile and be able to play like wingers. The two wide defenders have to be good tackling full backs with the mobility to get forward too! The six down the centre of the pitch don’t need to wander to far, thus maintaining the core of the formation. Of course ‘set plays’ are slightly different when your big defenders can take up receiver positions in the opponents penalty box.:rolleyes:

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

OMG...3-0 down...I slept in and just awoke at HT..Dam, should go back to bed.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Me too... has done for years... but I would never admit it to all and sundry !.:rolleyes:

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Are there enough fit players left to play 4-4-2? :rolleyes:

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

I havent left my settee and as bad as it is will see it through.
Looking for crumbs of comfort.
0-0 second half needed.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

You're not kidding.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

What baffles you StanleyJosh?:idunno:

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Russell should have scored look at Coley,s face.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

(*&^%$@^%&^*&*^%$*&&^%$*&*^%$*&*(**!!!

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

they may declare

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Burgess out played by their man 4-0

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

I’ve been more disappointed with the likes of Hughes and Burgess than the likes of Morgan and Rodgers.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Disgraceful defending.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

International call up was great for Dion but a shame if he doesn't even get a game when we could really use him! By the way the pitch looks dreadful.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

At least if Dion doesn't play too much he gets a good rest and comes back refreshed and happy as he was called up for his country.......also if he doesn't play he's less chance of injury.....;)

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

U%#&%#*%#*%#$&@&$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! stupid game.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Toby’s doing well... with very little cover or support whatsoever !.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

My whole point about saying we miss certain " better" players that's obvious so really quite pointless posts, nobody in a red shirt has played well today it happens, would we have had a different outcome with all the " better " players maybe but they aren't available so it's irrelevant no guarantees either when back fit and available they will hit the ground running, well thrashed today nothing new at London Road we learn and move on.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

we have now no goal difference:eek:

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Really Alan?:confused:

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

I genuinely don’t think you understand what you are trying to say. Earlier you said we aren’t missing the ‘better’ players, now you are saying what exactly?

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Another senior moment there Bob !.. as I posted it Posh scored their fifth goal !
Shows what I know ?.. time for a G and T and a nap I guess ?.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Unfortunately a week’s rest for Stanley hasn’t done much good, whereas the Posh had a game Tuesday night! :rolleyes:

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

&^&%#^$@#$%$%&%%$#$%^#

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

My thoughts exactly John !.. but stay cool !..:alright:

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

I was trying to get behind the lads in the shirt if we were present you hear it all the time, we,ll get nought today with all these missing etc; negative vibes mine are positive thoughts for the lads picked we have been comprehensively beaten today no excuses no bad official,s, no bad luck, I would love a fully fit full strength squad but moaning doesn't cure anything, big Easter coming up.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Six now and Savin SHOULD have run out to clear that one!:eek:
His confidence is shot!

Seven now!

That’s it!
I’m off to the pub to get ratted!

Oh hell. They are still closed!!!

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

agree our defence has been non existent today

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Never heard anything so contradictory in my life.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Andy - your words. The players missing would have made no difference. What absolute nonsense.
This game is becoming cringeworthy.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Seven been here before haven't we at Posh.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

This is ridiculous. A converted try vs F*** A**

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Playing last 15 mins with 10 men. Lots of muscle strains.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

The point is they are unavailable get over it we've lost by a rugby score and will do our lads confidence no good at all a bit like your comments.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Bit like your comments to the lads out.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Rubbish.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Delusional.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Now down to ten men. What has Perrit done wrong to see both Hughes and Barclay hobble off but stay sitting on the bench?

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Watching Stanley for 51 years makes you like that deluded.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Wouldn’t say he’s done anything wrong but can understand why Russell and Phillips came on. Been out injured for a long time.
Needs to build his fitness up ready for next season. Could be another academy player coming through into starting XI.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Worst league defeat in 61 years 7 - 0 rubbish to say the least 😟

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Coley lost count at 4 subs.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

No it's delusional.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Never lose it whoever plays in the red roll on Friday get blowing that trumpet Choirboy.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

He couldn’t have made another.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

NO !!... But I wish it had been !.. :(

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Well I,d just like to say it,s been a far more entertaining afternoon on here than at London Road thanks everyone ☺️

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Aren’t five subs allowed? Posh used five today!

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

You can make 5 subs but only on 3 occasions. If you make 1 sub or 3 at same time it only counts as one occasion.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Isherwood, Martin and Perritt unless I missed something were unused, Russell, Phillips, Mansell and Fenlon brought on.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Yes...you are spot on StanleyJosh! :hidewall:

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

for one who was a teacher coleman cant count posh used 5 why not us

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Is it over? Please tell me it's over ...

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Well didn't know that rule thanks for clearing it up for this deluded old sod cheers.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

But he knows the rules.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

thats a stupid rule but if thats what it is then so be it,

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Only the second game I've missed this season.....what a let off that was....

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Not at all. Imagine being 1-0 down with a couple of minutes to go with the momentum in your favour and the opposition slowing the game down the 5 separate subs.
It’s always been the case with 3 opportunities, just increased the amount of subs to 5.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

I don't think we have enough to play a 5-aside game just now

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

i think its stupid ok know it was 3 ops before but wheres the common sense if a guy gets injured and you cant put someone on?

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

One consolation is that, despite the score line, Sky Sports web site ‘highlights’ :eek: will still probably only last for 1:52 minutes.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

So Josh’s comments are rubbish but when youre confronted on what you said you come out with the most ridiculous defence (a bit like ours today) that Ive ever heard.
I give up

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Its hard, but irrelevant of the poor result I am trying to look on the bright side and think how lucky we are to have a league football Club and a Chairman who cares. Onwards and upwards to the next game.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

obviously he does know how to count so i was wrong also knows the rules bet he thinks they are daft also?

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Good you giving up most positive post today..

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

And this is why Andy I think you don’t quite understand even what you are saying.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Like you yourself said deluded but I have thouraly enjoyed the thread this afternoon far more entertaining than the game and a bit of fun to relieve the boredom of lockdown, and just listened to Coley who praised Posh couldn't believe another 4 injuries refused to hide behind injury,s and even though well beat spoke up for the squad saying he believes we will have league 1 football again next season a hell of an achievement for Stanley well said John welcome to the old deluded club.��

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

I have to agree with you andy, I've just watched Coley's after match interview and I think that it great that he didn't hide behind our injuries and was honest in his summary overall and praised Peterboro and how well they played also he wasn't critical of any of our side who must be feeling very down at the moment and need encouragement and not a brow beating.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Incredible.
Keep turning it Andy.
You said what you did live with it.
You join a long line of other posters who cant deal with the truth and who looked for my demise.
What I have learnt as before is to not walk away - keep challenging.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 

Thanks.
