Both teams go into this game after an upturn in form - Both have won 3 out of their last four games.

Our (Walsall's) defensive problems still remain however, we are vulnerable to crosses in open play and at set plays, we don't win many headers, I've no idea how Coventry play - if they lump high balls up to a big centre forward then we'll be in trouble.

Should be a decent gate of around 7,000.

Erhun Oztumer is a special little man. What were posh thinking? We sounded turd for an hour, the equaliser changed things and we missed a few good chances to win it after.

1 defeat in 10.

We were awful first 60 minutes, Cov really pressed us well and did a job on us and got their deserved goal. Second half we started poorly but grew into it with a lovely finish from Oztumer again. We then could of (and should of) won it with Kinsella's injury time chance.

Ref seemed to have had a flutter on Cov as well, he was very poor.

I'd say a 1 all draw was fair. Cov will be fine if they play like that from now on.

Sheff Utd played Peterborough last season at BL

And this little "man boy" called Oztumer was the best player on the pitch.
In brief spells he was like Messi and all the Blades around me were asking who he was and where's he come from?
Many were saying "sign him up for United" but he might be too expensive and Is surely Championship bound.

Then I hear he's now playing for Walsall.
Where did it all go wrong for him? Ha ha (only joking)

Draw probably just about fair, thought a win wouldn't have flattered us but Walsall had a few chances at the end which evens it out. We needed to score when we were on top at the start of the second half but that's something we're gonna have trouble doing all season, we lack a killer instinct.

3 games unbeaten and now out of the relegation zone, things are looking up!

He was great for Posh in 2 spells of a couple of months over the last 2 seasons...unfortunately his form comes in batches and the length of the poor form spells were much greater than the good form...I hope he gets this out of his system and gets more consistency. However before you proclaim him as the next Messi give him a full season first...then judge.:bye:

You can hardly judge him on his performance against us, either. Oleg McNoleg would look world class playing against our team of buffoons.
