Similar corner routine from Posh, trying to isolate Nyambe at the far post, but Taylor can't get the right connection'

don't tell JAL

I'm with him on this. Most of the goals from corners come from Nyambe going missing.

[DE.]

Yeah Conway is pretty much done, but doubt we could have dumped him even on a free considering his wage. Similar situation with Graham.

Not too worried yet as I think we can come back into it, but we can't keep conceding two goals and expect to win, so that really needs to be their only goal of the afternoon.

Think it was Downing that lost his man (for the goal)

I think they mean a corner a few minutes after the goal

Why is Samuel playing? His touch is ridiculously bad. Graham far better player.

The fact he starts ahead of Graham and Nuttall suggests either Mowbray is a poor judge of talent or the other two aren't working hard enough to earn a first team spot.

Antonsson booked for diving

[perthblue02]

Antonsson booked for falling over

[Tom]

Samuel scored two goals last Sunday when he had a start, and a goal from the bench before that, well earned a chance

Why the hell does Travis not start ahead of Nyambe he is bloody useless

Or he bagged 2 goals in our last game....

[blueboy3333]

Bradford, & Wigan winning 1-0.

Scunthorpe losing 1-0

[AdamRochina]

evans on for injured whittingham

[Husky]

Ridiculous dive by Antonsson. The foundations of being sent off.

[Dunnfc]

We struggle getting shots on target in league games!

[DE.]

Just to note I wasn't criticising Samuel, just saying either Mowbray is to blame or Graham/Nuttall aren't doing enough to warrant a first team spot.

What's the verdict so far , we deserve to be behind or the ball just not falling for us? Do we look dodgy in defence?

it was against Crewe who hadn't won in about 10 games though, why did Graham deserve to be dropped, he didn't, surely mate

Are you watching mate? Have you seen how bad his build up play is, it's terrible, if he scores fair play to the lad, and he does have a goal or two in him at this level, but his hold up play and first touch are abysmal

Conway has been awful to watch.

Both teams at times trying to play decent football, we are falling to bits when when we get it in the box (apart from a couple of early chances)  , Dack is running the game for us.  Personally think we are unlucky to be behind, but Peterborough look half decent
