Match Day Salop v P'boro

[DannySTFC]

These games usually have goals at both ends, I expect the same tomorrow, or lump on 0-0?

Two home games in a week, two defeats and Mellon has to go, no question, one point would be unacceptable but anything above that probably gives him a little more times.

Attendance's dropping and that's something the chairman will probably be more interested in then performances as things stand.

I do believe on our day we can click together and be a right handful for any team in this division, but you could surely say that about any side, problem is the days where we click are few and far between.

Of course I want to see us win and were desperate to pull away from the bottom four, but I am of the belief Mellon has taken us as far as he can, I would never wish defeat upon us but that will be what it takes for Roland to give Mellon the nudge.

Going for a 3-2 home victory, optimism or stupidity, who knows.

Leave it til next Saturday!

We're due a win, and we're due to thump somebody...

2-1 Shrews.

Micky Mellon under the spotlight, like almost 90% of the managers in the game. Christ who in their right mind would want to go into management Think Posh are good for a draw 1 - 1

 

[Matt_]

Whatever happens it's difficult to see the game being as mad as last seasons encounter.

You would think our awful run of home form has to end sooner rather than later just based on the law of averages, but there again I've been thinking that since the middle of last season.

Not the most attacking looking lineup selected by Mellon tonight, so we'll probably score a bucket full.

 

[Matt_]

Yet again, Town concede from a set piece, so predictable.

How can we defend so badly with so many defensive players in the side.

 

[Matt_]

Town booed off at halftime, but I'm sure Mellon will claim there weren't any.

Very lucky to only be 0-1 down. A big 45 minutes coming up for Mellon, even at this stage of the season.

 

[Matt_]

It's all happening this half.

A minute after Leutwiler makes a great save to keep Town in the game, Ian Black equalises then minutes later the same player misses from the penalty spot after Posh had been reduced to ten men.

 

[Matt_]

At least it's not yet another home defeat, but what an opportunity missed!

1-1, 30+ minutes against 10 men and the ball on the penalty spot, we should win the game from that position but in truth we barely laid a glove on Posh's 10 men with Posh just as likely to find a winner in that period.

The draw buys Mellon a bit more time but he really needs a result against Swindon on Saturday, tonight will have done nothing to placate his detractors.

The boos ring out again at the final whistle.

 

[The Hand of Dom]

Another game where we should have been out of side and ultimately we've dropped points.

Lee Angol's return can't come soon enough. He'd thrive here.

 

[DannySTFC]

A game we should have won which was absolutely there for the taking. We can't turn possession into chances especially against a team with everyone behind the ball.

Marcus 'fall over' Maddison was embarrassing again same as last time I saw him play, quality player but I just don't get why some players have the attitude and persona such as him.
