We have played some really exceptional football this afternoon. What a joy to watch. Even our dearest friend from the Posh Telegraph could watch this every week.
Fantastic result. We’ve scored another three goals which means we are joint top scorers in the league as a club. Kone is joint top scorer as an individual but is surely the best goals per minute ratio. The squad is incredibly well rounded. Bloomfield deserves immense credit. I could write paragraphs and paragraphs but I’d bore everyone to deaf. I am so excited for this season. We are genuine automatic promotion contenders.
Reading their forum is giving me dejavu - the way they are talking is remarkably similar to what the Franchise customers were saying when they got relegated. You can keep bleating on about how there are four teams worse, and before you know it, they’ve gone and stuck the letter R next to your name on the table.
Really strong response to going behind. We look to have such a string all round squad. We weren't playing badly at all, but needed to change things after they scored. Even with the various injuries we just have do many options, which makes me very optimistic about our chances this season. Kone will rightly get the plaudits, but Leahy and Kodua were also excellent.
Some lovely threaded through balls today, strung some great passes together, a woolly mammoth performance from Kone and we all now have a lovely yarn to tell our grandkids.
I predicted a 3-1 but after the first 45 thought it might be a 1-0 game either way. Great show from a very exciting squad. We are playing positive attractive football which has it's dangers...but makes for an exciting day out. I know King Kone will get MOTM but there was a lot to like today across the team.
Still in third at half time of the 3pm KOs… wouldn’t rule out a Rotherham goal against Wrexham to drag them into the mix again. Early in the day. Early in the season. Still fun to see us up there. Two very winnable games coming up for us too. I’m watching Lincoln vs Birmingham and it seems a Birmingham win is inevitable.

Think of the person who saw stoppage for Leahy and Kone coming on as a break for the loo, got distracted, then came back as Kone scored his 3rd... Me
Was Jermaine Easter’s first hat trick from the bench?
Hopefully one of Lommy's billions will tempt Kone to sign a ten year contract (and become a citizen of Kazakhstan)
Why book Morley there for their player being a knob?
Just woke up - did I miss anything?
You missed.....KONE
I had a dream about an angry Swann being knocked over by three traffic cones. It all makes sense now...
Can't write 'x' points off the playoffs when we are THIRD
Kone really is just magic isn’t he
At least we won't have to sell him for peanuts to balance the books.
Number two, presumably. Or are you quite elderly?
Every single one of our players went over to Kone to hug him. Lovely stuff.
Alan Swann has spoken:
Low attendance for a team going so well
Always tremendous fun to beat Peterborough, but what a special moment we’ve witnessed today. Kone will be our first £10 million player.
Needs to work on his throw-ins, though

By the way, does anyone know if Sadlier is injured?
BBC live text said Sads and Lubala missed out due to knocks from training (perhaps that QPR game)
Cheers! Hopefully nothing too serious.
Both walked round the perimeter of the pitch at half time and looked fairly comfortable, so I hope that means they’re not far off.
A gentle reminder of the cumulative score of our last three league games:
Wycombe 10
Peterborough 5

Matt Bloomfield is a decent football manager.
Someone needs to remind the old fossil that Peterbough as a city has about twice the population of Wycombe town.

Honourably mentions for Garath too.
