Massive game for both sides this one. We have to win, otherwise Johnson's position will come under heavy fire from the Chairman I'd suspect, as well as a fair few fans. But it wont be easy playing against a side who will be fighting for every point they can get. George Boyd is obviously suspended for this one, as is Grant McCann. Boyd's been shite of late so hopefully this rest will do him good and he'll come back as his usual self. Same with McCann really, again hopefully this'll do the same to him, as his disciplinary is poor, this'll be the 4th game his missed this season so far through suspension. Hopefully Frecklington is fit, I think he went off injured yesterday despite coming on in the first half, Lee Tomlin is back from suspension so he will start, and I'd start Whelpdale on the right. Zakuani was dropped yesterday, but I'd start him for Langmead, but Johnson likes Langmead so he's gunna start. Nyatanga will go straight in at LB then! Team... Lewis Little Langmead Bennett Nyatanga Whelpdale Wesolowski Frecklington Tomlin CMS Mclean (c) Subs; Collis, Zakuani, Lee, Nana, Mendez-Laing, A. Davies, Hibbert. Not sure how this game is going to go. We should be beating teams like Walsall, but we've been so poor of late. I'm going to predict a 2-1 win for Posh.
Doesnt get any easier does it?...we need to start picking up points and fast..but we have a really hard run coming up...so we have to win this!! by all accounts we played alright up until lee got sent off yesterday..and posh got thrashed at home so we might fear a backlash...or a lack of confidence i think we can win..but we need to be at our best...and the return of wacka..might put a few more bums on seats
Too right S17 it doesn't get easier. I can only see us getting a draw at best, our defence will be shitting themselves from Posh's strike force. I'm going for 3-1 Posh. Attendance :- 3,392 - 385 from Peterborough.
This is the best time to play them Walsall fans.They are missing two key midfielders and there confidence is shattered,You will get a draw if not more.They don't travel well either.
Although I agree this is the best time to play then rogue..we are also missing a few key players and our confidence is non existant at the moment! But I do have a good feeling about tonight for some reason!! Parkender we have been given 925 but I doubt we will sell that much..maybe about 500 or so? Depends how we do tonight...I'm gutted I can't go!
Really not looking forward to this game. We've been terrible on the road, our confidence is gone, and we're missing two of our main players. Walsall will up their game because of these circumstances, and so, I could see us getting a point at best. On the plus side, CMS and McLean will be hungry for goals as they both havent scored in a few games and the new LB sounds good for this level. Heart says 0-3 Posh, Brain says 1-1.
Up until 1pm today we had sold 420. The club are hoping to shift a few more tonight, so S17 is probably about right with the estimate of 500 or so. As for tonight's match, i'll change my prediction to 1-3. Liam Dickinson to score for us.
I am that confident you will not lose tonight that if you do i will adopt the Walsall badge for the rest of the season on here.
2-0? Thats more I like it lads! I see we're playing a different formation, finally GJ has seen sense to play 5 at the back when we're away from home.
