Seems like an eternity since we’ve played, desperate to see the lads in action tonight.
I’m hoping the team are raring to go and make amends after the Salford capitulation.
I’ll be watching on I-Follow. As someone said previously I don’t believe they’ll put out too strong a squad as they’ve got too much to lose with their promotion campaign re their next league match.
It remains though that they are likely to be a Championship team come next season so either way we need to be up for this tonight!

They are a quality outfit.
Not sure they will be a Championship side next season. The likes of Derby, Bolton and Barnsley are only a few points behind, with couple having games in hand. They may well have to settle for the playoffs, which is why I am hoping they don't put out their strongest side, particularly as the next round is next week.

A second-string Peterborough team in dicky conditions, with us able to give the first team a run out, sounds like our best chance to beat them. I bet they have some power play on the bench though in case we get too big for our boots.
Simple game plan - win the toss and kick with the wind, get a 10-0 lead by half time and hang on for grim death in the second half. What could possibly go wrong? :-) As long as it doesn’t turn into a farce like that cup game against Bristol Rovers a few years ago.

Only 5 of Peterborough's Starting XI on Saturday start tonight. Steer, Burrows, Knight, Mason Clark & Ajiboye. The Other 6 Starters are Fringe Players. Cmon u Reds, Win the Toss and put these to Bed in the First Half before they Bring their Big Guns on 2nd Half. We need a 2 Goal Lead at Half Time for sure!

As you say a lot of fringe players starting so we have a chance. COYR!
It is very breezy. Balls being taken all over the place by the wind as Corey is doing catching practice.
Kev, please let us know if you think we are kicking down wind or into wind first half when it gets under way. Into wind i will take 0-0 half time, down wind we need to be at least 2 up at half time.
