Guitar Ray

I tend to think the game will be harder now and more likely that Posh will be buoyed by their win rather than suffering from a come down after the highs of Sunday. Beyond the dream of picking up a point, or even 3, the main thing is not to see the GD hammered.

It’s worth remembering we released Willo and, from the outside at least, appear to have only re-signed him after failing to sign our other targets. I’d rather him than Loft but rather not keep him and Loft…..unless we sign an additional 3 strikers on top.

Oatcakes are the local delicacy/staple diet in these parts but you can still get a bad one.

Care to define the two?

No, just ok in my view.

Sadly.

Having lost today next Saturday becomes a must not lose. After that Cheltenham play Tuesday whilst we play Wednesday. We’ll be level on games with Burton and Cheltenham will still have a game in hand.

The only ideal result in that match is a draw. Indeed. It was 0-0 when they played just a month ago so a repeat would be great but we have to pick a point or 3 up ourselves.

Cheltenham have a game in hand on us, a better GD and have to play Burton.

The slight problem is that they play each other, so one team is guaranteed at least a point, we’ve got no such guarantees.

We did enough to miss plenty of opportunities to either bury the ball in the back of the net or make a simple pass to a better placed player. Chislett, Uche, Garrity, Smith should all be scoring.

The result of 3 transfer windows wasted by our waffling ex-DoF.

Today was another stark example of our terrible recruitment, although as bad as we were I thought we were better than the Cobblers for the majority of the game, yet we walk away on the end of a 2-0 defeat because we’ve missed enough chances to win 2 games but conceded 2 soft goals from our own bad play.

Ah yes, Roman roads, a nod back to far happier times, before the pot hole had been invented.

“A run with the ball past a couple of defenders”? What were they wearing on their feet? Lead diving boots?

Most folk will find it far easier to express themselves on here than to some stranger sitting next to them in the stand. That’s fact.

It’s easy to say things from the confines of your arm chair. Far harder to say them to someone’s face. I guess we’re all guilty to some degree.

There’s a lot more fight and aggression throughout the team. It’s not always about winning the ball outright, sometimes just preventing the opponent from winning the ball cleanly is enough. The other big change is that we’ve cut out a lot of the unforced errors that were so costly. We’re still making errors, all teams do, but they’re not killing us as they did in some of the earlier games under Moore.

Cheltenham look to have an easy run in. Basically it’s up to us to win enough games.

I think I’m right in saying your season ticket won’t get her any discount, at least I’ve not noticed any when buying tickets for folk this season.

“Just so they could say something negative about it”? Far from the truth. From our angle, in that instant when he hit the ball it was rising pretty sharply. Quite simply the guy doesn’t have a lot of form for hitting the target. It was a good strike no question.

We weren’t in line with the shot, we were the other side of the goal with Loft in front of us. As he smashed it and it rose we were expecting to keep going. Like you say, he had little time to think. Chizz was a little unlucky to score from Lofts pass. I’d have Chislett start before Wilson personally.

We really are. He’s not only raising his own profile but the profile of the club as a whole.

It can hardly be described as a tome Hops. An outpouring of emotion. As you say, best to let it go.👍🏻

I honestly think everyone thought he’d smashed it over. Nobody around me could believe it when the roof of the net bulged. Fantastic celebrations. That’s what football is all about.
