    Are we ever going to win again?

    Are we ever going to keep a clean sheet again?

    Are we ever going to have a home game finish before 5pm again?

    Which of those will happen first?

    Worst referee at the valley this season? 
  • Oh you bastard referee!!... Blew up as a ball went into the Posh box

    The effort went narrowly wide, but that was disgusting
    Score was as per his betting slip in his pocket...

    The game was lost in the first half. Much better 2nd. Genuinely hope the two Campbells aren’t seen again.

    Painful to lose given the second half performance.

    As for the team the performance was better in the second half, new signings mostly showed some quality. We look so much better when we play quickly. Oh and Kanu was brilliant off the bench. 352 from the start with him and May next time out please
  • Why do we insist on pissing about with it on the halfway line, with minutes to go!

    constantly trying to play inside rather than take a man on and get down the line… we missed CBT big time

    Peterborough aren't as good as the table suggests. Defensive frailties let us down again

    Don’t know about worst ref, but we have definitely seen the worst manager in a dugout at The Valley this season and it wasn’t Ferguson

    A good effort there. Gives me a bit of hope.

    In a 352 could be incredible for the rest of the season 
  • Unlucky... As mentioned on the Match Preview, with the new signings that have come in, our next game vs Burton was always going to be the better time to judge them, what with the form Pish have been in.

    Appleton certainly got a response second half and did the right thing putting Kanu and Louie Watson on, hopefully that gives the Campbells a bit of a kick up the rear to show the levels required of them.

    Maynard-Brewer - Ness - Kanu, did alright from the over-rated Academy; League One might be their level for their careers, but its all we need for now... All three newbies looked promising from first showing.

    Also thought the back 3 were good today. Ness looked more like he did last season

    Difficult one... Those three looked great, and think 3-5-2 could work with the right Wing-Backs, if I knew I was getting that I'd sell CBT to fund it, as we look better setup that way than 4-3-3

    Dobson poor again in my opinion, just running around like a headless chicken trying to put in slide tackles
  • Another defeat for Appleton. 
    Undeserved result really on the second half performance

    Yeah. Edun and Watson defensively lacking but perhaps because unorganised when some players should be covering. 

    I was livid watching Watson walking for their 2nd but he should have had cover

    Kanu coming on to help May changed things 
    Campbells were abysmal
    Our defence is poor.  Still.
    The manager struggles to get a first half performance out of a side. 
    The new signings will help but we can't stop conceding goals.   That has to change or results won't improve massively......

    And, it has to be said, in the third tier.

    That's proper shite.

    1 win in 11 League One games - almost a quarter of the season.

    Abysmal first half. Better second half. Remember  2 of the signings are loan players won’t be here next year. Appleton out.

    Quite depressing that we accept being a bottom half League One club and losing to the mighty Peterborough at home.

    That midfield 3 that finished the game looked good.
