    There’d be some buzz going into Saturday’s game if Peterborough drop points tonight...

    We’re playing Gateshead today apparently.
    Get a few players up to speed.

    Yes I was just thinking how much I was enjoying us playing twice a week and watching both games... albeit with poor camera coverage. Then we do not have a game...
    I suspect Hume and a couple more , Jones? Will be given some pitch time v gateshead

    Get the impression Jones is quite a way off yet. Doubt he’s in line for the weekend even.

    According to SKP on my ifootball app yesterday Jones won't be back til next month which of course is next week, but Kevin was unable to say what part of April he'll be fit for.

    I've decided to put him out of my mind tbh.

    There's too much 'radio silence' around his injury ...

    ... imo there's a chance he won't play for us again.

    this is exactly my fear. It's being treated very hush hush.

    Bloody hell, hope not. He gives us that little bit extra when he plays.

    I’m not so sure. Posh have 5 points from their last 5 games while Blackpool have taken 9 points from their last 5 and are on a 9 game unbeaten run.

    The table says posh are the better side but on current form I wouldn’t bet against Blackpool beating them for a second time this season.

    He's way above this league but not afraid to get stuck in ...

    ... be a real shame if we've lost him but Rangers won't allow him to play with an injury.

    Best thing would to be to do a deal while he's crocked <laugh>

    Blackpool's recent form has picked up. They've won their last four away games. This won't be an easy game for Posh.

    I expect Oxford to win at Northampton. Hope they can get a point against Lincoln, but given The Imps away form I think they might sneak it. Thankfully their home form is poor, so they'll drop points there anyway.

    As I've said all season there are no easy games and no outstanding teams ...

    ... at this stage it's all about character and we have plenty.

    I'm sure that some brave posters can multi-task and push themselves to type a few words on two threads ...


    ... you just did so I'm sure that anyone else can.
