Looking forward....
Subs and switch of formation meant we lost control of the game at a crucial stage. I thought we did give a decent showing though and pressed well.

Another positive was Alli looked a handful and was looking to get involved in the game. Nearly scored a header late in the game and gives us something different.
We had lost control in the first 20odd minutes of the second half about the time when aimson, sweenz and Harper were injured all within a few minutes of each other. We were very iffy during that time.

Baffling he persists with playing players out of position over and over. We've got a fully fit squad I don't get the overthinking.

Plenty of possession in the final 3rd yet their keeper was virtually a spectator. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Sadly they volunteers they all have contract terms forbidding any dissention from "Super Gary Caldwell" mantra !

Can you share the contracts for the volunteers that you've got hold of?

Yeah it’s completely different. If joe white is turning is respectable performances for Newcastle after his showings with us last year I’d be reluctant to write anybody off though! Agree though, can’t be good for the lads confidence…he’ll know he’s not been up to scratch id expect
I can’t see Harris securing a championship loan I reckon he will be loaned to Wigan next season as Marco Silva has a close relationship with the manager

Expected result, actually better than expected. Not worried, we've got plenty of quality out there, just not as much as Posh.
We're league 1 survivors, not promotion candidates.

I'm not happy with any defeat, it's Peterborough not Man City. They were recently beaten by Wycombe and Wigan (and us!)
Were you happy with one point from Lincoln and Fleetwood?

First half I thought we competed very well with a good high press that unusually allowed us to play our football in the Peterborough half of the field…Second half very poor indeed and barely managed a threatening attack on the Posh goal until Milanic put a header onto the top of the Peterborough net in the 99th minute
