Could have been worse.

Oh how I hate this round. Leeds and upsets are very closely linked.

With Posh being top of Div 1 and playing our reserves, they would be favorites you would think, so an upset would be fine.

Ooh, I might be able to get a ticket to that.
I wonder what price the bookies would have given you at the start of the run. 13 away draws in a row is incredible.
I'm convinced our ball has something on it that identifies it as our ball so the person picking the away side always picks it :)
Its a conspiracy I tell ya.

Nothing posh about Peterborough, not the area i stumbled into anyway. Tough game but one that Joffy, Joseph & Jesus will be well up for.

London Road is a horrible ground with archaic facilities.

Certain to be one of the TV matches.

What's the betting we'll play a load of players who haven't played for months (Gelhardt, Gyabi, Cresswell) and they'll be out of match sharpness and then we lose? :duno:

Very high I'd say, and it will be "evidence" that a thrown together 11 with little or no game time "proves" that the youth and depth aren't good enough. Facile argument but it would get made

I didn't say it would be the team I would pick 😂
However, he will probably be back from his injury about then so is likely to start along with all the others who are currently not starting games.

Other championship clubs would call that strength in depth. According to reports Blackburn would kill for that line up this weekend.
