I know I'm getting a little ahead of myself, but I'd much prefer a two legged game against Posh than Bolton for us. Posh have a tendency to have very bad off days.

Agreed, Posh seem to be incredibly inconsistent, swinging from one extreme to another. Bolton seem like they would be a much trickier proposition.

Yeah definitely, but I’d settle for 6th given it isn’t a given we’ll even end up in the play offs.

Pish working on the theory that if they stay where they are in the table, they will avoid us in the PO semis?

Against EFL regulations, but some clubs have a tendency to do as they please. This is one of those clubs.
25. Requirement to Play Full Strength Sides in League Matches
25.1 Each Club shall play its full strength in all Matches played under the auspices of The League unless some satisfactory reason is given. In the event of the explanation not being deemed satisfactory the Board shall refer the matter to a Disciplinary Commission which has the power to impose such penalties as it shall think fit.
I wonder when Peterborough's owners are going to get bored of trying to make a silk purse out of a rat's ass?

I'm sure the EFL will send them a strongly worded letter

No. It flies directly in the face of sporting integrity.

I mean they could play their first team and tell them not to try, run or tackle I suppose.

Is that a satisfactory reason for the other teams in danger of relegation?

I can envisage some of them lodging complaints...
21 shots, 7 on target Vs 2 and 0
Twice as many attacks and three times as many dangerous attacks...

Dock them 10 points and make an example of them.

Maybe hoping to play Barnsley with their terrible form and no manager. Not a smart move as Barnsley may not make 5th, or even 6th.

Is that maths correct?

Slight change now - but still very one sided.Is that maths correct?
Going from Flashscore's stats...
