Peterborough United away match day thread

[steviestevieneville]

The main reason I rarely comment on the match day thread . Everyone’s a ******* expert when the teams announced

plus the one or two that have crawled out of the woodwork after one defeat in 6

I love it when they make comments during the game then find out they listened to bbcrb.

Ask the question..how many times you  left a stadium and said or thought COD was good today…one comes to mind few seasons back when we lost 3 2 at Norwich…anyone else please…but today will be the day….be  positive

Everyone an expert or has an opinion? Would be pretty drab on here if no one shared their view.

Rather than predict poor performances from certain players before the game even starts, why don’t we actually just watch how they play.

Its a good eleven.  There is no reason for it to not perform based on one or two player’s selections.

Spot on Dave, as usual. We all understand the limitations of the current squad (yes, there are plenty). But it is what it is, and we'll be stuck with what we we've got for a good while yet.

How about getting behind the players and trying to encourage them to give the best that they've got?.

Will certainly see more of him than we ever did in red!

...and then during the game, the bias + or - to certain players is amazing.  One players bad touch pounced upon, another ooooh that was unlucky.

Its why I tune out of the MDT during the play, and watch the game.  Its worth reading back 20-30 pages on a Sunday or Monday, and picking out the bias.

[cidered abroad]

BBC have lined us up as 3-5-2.

[Red_Alligator]

We lost midweek people. Get over it. 

I can't believe the amount of negativity on here today and it's still twenty minutes before kick-off!!

[IAmNick]

Obviously not the perfect team any of us would pick with free choice, but this is the reality of where we are right now.

We are going to have some average players, inconsistent ones, or tired ones - that's the life of a mid table championship club which I'm very relieved to day we seem to be this season.

Still think they're a decent 11 for us and good enough to get a result today.

COYR!

Yep. 100% belters. I’m not there today & got rid of my dodgy  iptv stream so its radio Bristol for me . I may comment that I’m happy or disappointed with a result but you can’t comment on the performance. 
 Mind you Ian what ever his name is , is currently making a living from it .

So everybody has to bow to your greater knowledge and opinion do they? You've got your opinions, I've  got mine. Live with it!

[Red_Alligator]

And Coventry smashed the mighty Fulham today.

And Ronaldo didn't score today.

And you can't trust coppers these days.

And the weather is very inclement.

Get over it.

COYR!!

Where did I say that exactly . In my opinion your opinion is uneducated. We haven’t kicked a ball yet but you’ve slagged off both our strikers that have in general had a good start to the season & even suggested playing vyner up front .

And yours is play Vyner up front. And that’s fine. My opinion is you were either being flippant or football ain’t for you!

Warming up just now Pring and Tanner lined up either side of Kalas and Atkinson, which would seem to indicate a back 4, but might have been trying to fool Posh. 

[Lanterne Rouge]

It`s got the feeling for me today of just getting the game out the way without too much additional damage done so we can regroup over the next two weeks.

Why do you say that? They are 22nd and concede two goals per game

I'll take a point now. 

Another surprise away win would be ace though

A back four seems more likely to me. I somehow can't see them going with a three, having Pring as the left-sided central defender.

Perhaps four at the back, two deeper lying CMs in James and King, Weimann-Williams-O'Dowda ahead of them and Martin up top?

Something like that. Seems a bit more credible to me. (The BBC website always shows the teams in a certain formation, whether it be 4-4-2 or 4-3-3 or whatever. I often wonder who decides that and where they get their information from, if indeed they have any. Or is it pure guesswork by some anonymous, minor sports  journo? More interested to hear what a better informed BBC RB commentary team make it out to be.)

[EstoniaTallinnRed]

Come on City, let's get a win before the dreaded International break, a win good for confidence and the break good for the chance of getting key players fit.  

[Rocky]

Szmodics will be running through walls to get a goal or 2.

It’s generated automatically via Opta. All the match information (stats, scores, line-ups etc) comes from them.

This has to be a winnable game, right?
