I know the substitutions cost us any chance of winning but if they had not have been made or maybe the expected 1 or 2 were we guaranteed of beating Peterborough? That is what it sounds like.

That was the dream draw this year, and with the cool story of it being where we won it. Properly gutted about that.
It?s highly unlikely we would have got Everton away in the draw.Quote:

It?s 100% likely, the ball numbers are the same in the FA Cup, determined before we even played Peterborough.Quote:

Gutted about the draw.
I'm at Goodison on Wednesday for the Wolves game (they are my second club).
