Peterborough United Post Match Thoughts

[gm_gm]

We played really well today but we need to take the chances 20 shots to their 6, some of the football was as good as we have played all season.

Take the positives on a good day it’s 4-1

Rotherham had a great deal of lazy shooting today, really poor.

54% possession, 20 shots, 6 on target.... should have been enough shots for an easy win, but for wasteful finishing. Fairly typical since our good run ended. Good to see Lavery get his first Millers goal, and that should boost his confidence, but we've generally lost the knack of goalscoring . Is that due to the forwards themselves, or the supply they are getting? Hopefully the "magic touch", or a bit of good luck, will return, and we need it soon.

Good entertaining game.

Yes Ref was crap but we threw it away, why sit on one effing goal .

Why fetch Williams on instead of Wood and moving Vaulks up.

I didn’t think Posh were great tbh and we should have had about 4.

Thought we were hoisted on our own petard with Donny-like time wasting tactics. A real shame because we played some good - if unproductive - football. A case of snatching defeat (well an unlikely draw, anyway) from the jaws of victory.

We played really well today apart from the missing killer touch. I thought we were unlucky not to get 3 points.
If we keep playing like that we will surely be ok.

I have no issue with the time added

Kicking the ball straight to their keeper with time running out was irresponsible.

Obviously gutted but I'll take the positives .

Get something on Monday (tough as it will be) and we'll all be happy

Williams has been a good player to bring on to see out games, that's why he fetched him on.

I'm not going to get too upset about the added time. Whether it was merited or not, the time added could have equally benefitted us by pushing for a second and being out of sight. We didn't, they never gave up, they got the goal. Still devastating though, that feeling of mega elation when we scored that last gasp winner against Donny was levelled out by Peterboroughs equaliser today. At least it wasn't their winning goal.

Lots of positives from today. Some really good football played from us, a joy to watch. Palmer, what a great signing, deservedly man of the match. Towell played well too, as did Vaulks. Emmanuel never stopped battling. I was proud of the whole team today and I think we did deserve the three points.

Negatives, we did squander a lot of good chances. The only other negative was the rain! Oh yeah, and their equaliser.

As for Marriott, spent most of the game wondering what all the fuss was about. Then all of a sudden he has a shot that forces a world class save from Rodak. Real danger man. Then goes back to diving around and moaning to the ref for 25 minutes. Then when it really counts he scores. So I suppose thats exactly what the fuss is about.

I still think we'll make the play offs and one good thing is we seem to perform well against similarly positioned teams. Still all to play for.

It doesn't look like the rain is going to ease up, but that might suit our players

Was a good match, played very well as we seem to do against the better teams.

What I did find bizarre was the way Peterborough fans outside the ground celebrating as if they'd just won the World Cup when all they done was get a late equaliser which in the grand scheme of things doesn't help them or hurt us that much.
