Peterborough (A) match thread - 10th March

[Alan Vit]

We are effectively playing a Championship side which hasn't yet been promoted.

When making comments about the abilities of our talented teenage players, who have so far experienced only (part of) a handful of senior games, it would be fair and constructive to remember that context.

[Walka003]

Walks, I agree with your comment with the exception of Walters he’s just a young lad. 

He should not be playing in L1. He's no where close to ready. At least Dipepa and Shorrock show a bit of willing.

The fact that we are begging him to sign a contract is laughable. There's no way the rumours of stoke can be true, he'll be lucky to get a contract with baisingstoke when we bin him in summer.

Yes someone else seen it

Not seen Plant make a tackle, probably ever.

He will not make a footballer. He is poor. He has energy and enthusiasm. Nothing else.

Cannot defend, Cannot create, Cannot score goals

Beginning to think the same. Energy and enthusiasm is great when you first break through but they’ll need to show more. The young ones aren’t good enough yet.

Just a footballer who is and has been better than I could have dreamed of. And probably you. Same for any professional footballer. As you well know - many more fail than make it. Let alone for nearly 500 games.

Sorry Gooders, couldnt give a toss. This season for our team he is garbage and that is what i am watching and what i will judge him on. Garbage

What's costing us more dearly is conceding late v Carlisle and Fleetwood, and losing those points.  We would be less worried about goal difference if we were further away from the two below us.

6pts gifted to Cheltenham aswell.

This isn’t the game that’s doing to define what league we’re in next season. Regardless of what this finishes, last night was a huge result. For me the next two are the big two. Loft, Massey, walters and Lowe cannot start that game.

and isn’t used to playing together.  Which is exactly what we are. 

It's April. We, famously, signed <ovf censored> all in January. How can they not be used to playing together by now?

Dross, some of them out of position, but mostly just dross.

You truly sum up what is awful about our fan base. Clueless. Lashing out at everything and everyone with ridiculous comments. Sitting by you at VP must be torture. Fast becoming one of the illustrious few who joins the block list with their constant spam.

It's a good job Stevenage will beat Burton on Saturday

Because we are constantly changing it both in personnel and formations. We’ve had no chance to build up any kind of relationships or partnerships on the pitch. Every week seems to be something different.

No excuse for what he did for that goal. I get playing crap and it ain’t easy in this formation, but bringing him down like that is pretty poor. 

Tonight we needed better performances than we have seen from a lot more players than Loft.

Loft is poor but tonight was about defenders and midfield players more so to give a top performance. Too many have also been poor

[valiant_593]

Somehow are midfield is weaker than when we had Pugh and tongue in there.

What do you think they do 5 days a week in training?

I'm not sure unfamiliarity is a justifiable excuse for this shower of <ovf censored>. It's simpler than that.
