Want to see that headed chance the Posh fella missed near the end, possibly miss of the season at the CG on initial viewing

Didnt show it on sky - nor the melee in dugouts or the thundering shot off the bar

Basically the goals and red shown  Roll Eyes

329 is a piss poor away following considering where we both are in the table

We wouldnt have taken many more than that to them.

Yes we would.  Other than the JPT a few seasons back when the total crowd was less than 1000 from what I can remember we have always taken more than that to Peterborough.

The space for Yasser was created by Ranger (I think) who made a diagonal run taking two defenders with him, they didn't think he would shoot!!
Think it was Danny N'Guessan to be fair but Yasser said the run off the ball gave him the space.  Yas actually received the ball from a short throw just inside the Posh half, made initial space with a feint to go past the first marker then, thanks to DNG's run causing two backtracking defenders to hesitate a moment, took immediate advantage to continue his rightward run out of their reach before cutting a shot back ruthlessly past the Keeper.  Worth waiting for on YouTube for our Iraqi poster.  Crucial goal in deflating Posh ambitions which could otherwise have become overwhelming.

On another note I thought Ward and Branco might merit preference to Ward and Hall though I have read one criticism of Branco's positional sense even if Posh would have surely caused problems to most League One defences today?

Thought Branco did a great job today - Assombalonga would and has caused problems for better defences than ours all season,
We looked a better defencive bet with him at CB than Hall, though am sure at times we had all three in that position.

I have seen Branco for the first time today and he is really tall and looks like a promising signing

Thank fuck you told me, I was staring at him going 'There's something about him I just can't quite put my finger on' and you've solved my conundrum.

Personally I thought it explained it all. Did anyone notice some player for us with a hat and scarf on  and you can only see his eyes. Some guy said to me he thinks its Ajose hiding but now  think they got Ajose and Byrne mixed up when they arrived.

They look very similar especially when I read the program and the whole time I thought the interview was ajose  Hmmm I must be blind or something

You do know Ajose was in blue today wearing number 21? I don't think he played with a hat and scarf on and they do not look alike at all.

I saw that player. He was with the subs at half time. It certainly wasn't Ajose though - he was dressed in blue.

I saw him too.  It was a bid odd, almost like he was trying to hide his face.

 Ajose's car was parked with the Swindon players, which also seemed a bit odd.

Iv seen a number of goals this season where wes doesn't even bother lifting an arm and stays rooted to the ground. I know he had little chance with the borough goal but atleast through yourself at it. A chip against leyton orient?! And the freekick against brentford stick in my mind but there is probably a few others.

How heavily have Peterborough invested, out of interest?  (Sounds as if they have spend a lot.)  Is this season a case of go up or blow up?
