I think Posh have secured safety for this season. A pretty bland.performance ending
0-0. Mansfield looked the better side but even they didnt look great.
Began to notice a pattern. Many of Posh's players are not big fellas and you consistently see them either physically muscled off the ball or lose out when recieving a pass under pressure..that and poor passing.
I must have been watching them at their best earlier in the season, they were flying for a few games. Seems those games probably saved them from relegation..

Happy with Luke Williams?
In hindsight he probably would agree he should not have left Notts for a job at Bristol airport via Swansea.

Hoping Fleetwood turn up on Saturday and as a result Bromley rather than Franchise FC are champions of League Two. The other auto promotion place is between Cambridge, Salford and Notts.

Anyone not watching PSG vs Bayern is missing one of the great football games of all time, absolutely extraordinary.

It was an absolute belter of a match

The speed and the skills were breathtaking. The best game I've seen for ages.

Five-four is a hockey score, not a football score. In a three-against-three training match, if the score reaches 5-4 I send the players back to the dressing rooms as they are not defending properly. So to get a result like that in a game of 11 against 11 is disgraceful.



Not me - that was Mourinho when he was at Chelsea and Arsenal beat Spurs 5-4

Hopefully he'll be more appreciative of Arsenal's defence tonight....

I cant claim to be knowledgeable enough on tactics etc...I just enjoy a game for what o see in front of me so cant really have an opinion on him.
A few weeks ago they were flying but im not seeing the same players scoring now as were then, whether that's a positional change or team setup I dont know.
Dornelly and Lisbie, Archie Collins (never stops) and JJ Morgan I've watched play really well, then other games they've been pretty absent.

What's Chris Sutton on about on Radio 5 Live, saying Arsenal blew it and at 1-1 it'll be difficult for them in the second leg! Duh! it's 1-1 with home advantage, not 0-3 with the second leg in Madrid! He didn't moan about it just the once, he kept going on and on about it! 😏

Sutton? This Chris Sutton?

He hates Arsenal, and the feeling's mutual.

See, when Kanu did something similar V Sheffield Utd we won the game but offered them a replay (after some fuss the FA allowed us to do that). We won the replay.

He wouldn't let it drop. He did say that the Athletico goal/penalty was dubious, but then kept saying words to the affect that Arsenal had blown it. He's contradicting himself, sympathising with Arsenal, then criticising them for his idea of possibly giving the tie away!🤷‍♂️ He was the junior partner in Blackburn's 'SAS' partnership of Sutton and Shearer in their 1995 Premiership winning season, which I remember Shearer saying years later that it should've been Shearer and Sutton, not Sutton and Shearer as he was the main man, not Sutton. I never or maybe hardly hear them mention each other, apart from that incident when Shearer had a pop at Sutton. Sutton has mentioned Shearer on Five Live's 6.06 phone in, but as far as I know never in that 'SAS' context.🤔

Sutton is a shockingly bad pundit. He's even worse when he's on Celtic duty, and has turned 606 from an entertaining and informative show into a disaster.
