Away at Birmingham for us.

As 0 goals in the last 4 games will attest to, we're not exactly an attacking threat at the minute, nor have we kept many clean sheets this season either.

House is still out, we've recalled a 'keeper because Wickens is injured and we've still got a bit of illness lingering in the camp so we're a little thin on the ground.

12pm KO so at least that saves us waiting until 5pm for our FA Cup exit.

No chance our games going to be on, it’s been -4 all week and dropped colder last night and tonight. Our paper thin covers only protect upto -2 aswell, and even if they can do anything with it come 5pm with it being a 6pm KO it’ll be freezing over again.

Cant wait to finally get a decent cup tie in Mondays draw then lose the rescheduled game with Wigan

surely you can get covers that protect better than -2?

I was keeping an interest in it as I needed Everton -1, so got pretty lucky in the end.

They were absolutely hopeless when we won there 3-0 on boxing day, alright upfront both hopeless defensively.
Apart from a lucky shot that was cleared inside the 6 yard box, they were pretty toothless and didn't lay a glove on a very fragile Everton side. Everton did just enough to win but the game isn't anywhere near a classic.

They didn't lay a glove on us either last weekend. Surely Fergie's time is up?

Stockport County.
I have to defend Ferguson on this Ashley Young and his son business.

Young's son is 18 years old and barely plays senior football for Peterborough as it stands. Why would they bring him on away at Everton when they were only 1-0 down? It's not make a wish.

I would love to dig in to Ferguson because he’s a twat, but he’s got a job to do and its not to make the media happy.

Anyone having at go at him for not bringing him on is being ridiculous.

Strange to rearrange it so early though, not as if you have to fit a replay in

FA Cup takes precedence over League games I imagine, same as the FA Trophy and FA Vase do in non-league.

Yeah basically that’s it, says as much in Mansfield and Exeter statement regarding it.

The club posted a video of the inspection, obviously the sheets are on but only effective around -2 and it’s been down to -7 at times and pretty much below zero for the entire week. Never stood a chance without undersoil heating.

This Ashley Young and his boy situation is getting on my nerves. You know it’s bad when the one twitter account speaking sense on the matter is Darrargh.

Fucking c*** like Richard Keys putting his 2 pence worth in aswell. Only really wanted to make this post to call that fucking planet of the apes extra a c*** to be honest.

The only surprise is Elon Musk has no opinion on the matter yet

Yeah i remember being in the Conference and being gobsmacked that the Trophy would take precedence. Absolutely in the dark ages that lot

Didn't help that the BBC went mad on it before the game, almost made it sound like it was definitely going to happen

Probably they had it on !

Ferguson wanted to make attacking subs as they were only 1-0 down which is understandable.
