Lower West The game in hand is gaining in importance for Peterborough. A win for Reading is imperative. Lose that fixture and Pauno is a dead man.
That game in hand is home v Reading

Zip In the end a good night. Barnsley well beaten and Posh blow a two goal lead.....they do concede a lot of goals in the second half which is encouraging for us.

NathStPaultidus_mi2NathStPaul Not sure any Reading supporter is in a position to laugh at Peterbrough. They got one point more than we've got recently and didn't let in 7 goals.
Man I get this season has been shit but you're way beyond negative.
I deal in facts. I don't live in a positivity dream world like the majority of our deluded supporters. There is a reason why all other fanbase's laugh at us.

Snowflake Royal There has certainly been excessive writing off of Posh on this fair portal. Quite a lot of hubris on display.
Posh have picked up 4 points in their last 6. We've got 1.

I agree. I don’t see any reason why people are so confident we can go there and win.

I have seen a few supporters on social meda say things like "we can go and beat the likes of......". We ARE "the likes of" now ffs. Every team in that division knows they have a great chance of 3 points against us and we are a very soft touch, they are rightly going to target us. Our fanbase are having a real hard time of it accepting that we have absolutely no chance under our current manager and current player effort levels, we are where we are because we deserve to be there.

Of course it will be tough but by the time we go there we should have a full strength squad, or close to it something we haven't had in what feels like an age. If the application improves, which it did on Saturday, then to match that with the talent that individuals clearly have, we are better than our current position allows.
There are lots of if buts and maybes naturally but we should improve over the last 19 games but I also accept we are just as likely to get relegated. Our away form of late isn't that bad W3 L3 over the last 6.
Keep that up we'll win 5 lose 6 of the last 11 away games.

Because, despite all of our recent struggles and results, they are still below us. We have sunk about as low as we could have ever imagined this last month and they are still below us.
Putting the shoe on the other foot, why do people not feel so confident about going to their place and winning? I'm not saying it's a given and, credit to them, they played well for about an hour at Birmingham yesterday and fully deserved to be 2 goals ahead, yet they still didn't win. They've struggled for goals (down to injuries in that area), but they haven't dealt with the frankly unprecedented situation regarding our injury record this season, along with a points deduction, along with Covid spreading through our club throughout the Christmas period as well as pre-season etc.
People like to believe they are just excuses, which I can fully understand, but the practical aspect is that all of these factors will genuinely effect the team and people think that it would be just as simple as a managerial change to sort it out. Yes, we shouldn't be losing 7-0 to Fulham, or 2-1 to Kidderminster etc, but the problems this season go far deeper than looking at a couple of isolated results, or even this month as a whole.
I'm confident this can be turned around and I believe recruiting a couple of players in what remains of the window and getting players back from injuries is generally putting the fanbase in a more positive, optimistic mood. It can't be doom and gloom forever.

They were the better side for the first 60 minutes until Swift’s freekick at our place. So this will be a battle. They are like us in that they do concede an awful lot of late goals though so question marks about their fitness levels.
