Peterborough build up
This will be our fourth out of five matches which could be construed as some level of grudge match (Derby, Plymouth, Oxford). I have a feeling this is going to be a very watchable clash with both teams scoring at least twice - and I would point to my 0.003% success rate in predictions as to how much weight you should give that opinion.
Despite the injuries, we do have a very good available starting XI, and we are also a different proposition at AP, where we have not actually deserved to lose a game all season on balance of play, with Shrewsbury being a "voodoo doll game" and Plymouth also very fortunate our shooting radar was off.
More than one poster has mentioned that they expect us to go on a run sometime from now to mid-November, especially given the fixture list, and I tend to agree. It may or may not start now, but I think we are really going to show up on Saturday and give Posh everything they can handle.
Prediction: 2-2 (Mawson header, GMac shot to end a nice passing move).
To me, our two most significant issues are the missing defensive midfielders and the lack of a clinical edge at the end of moves. If Gape is okay and we fix the latter, the upturn may be close.

Everyone be sure to give Swanny a warm welcome
Alan or Bluey?
Wonder if they've managed to wash off the stink of their season above.
It's charming how they followed up the 20-21 Revenge Tour with the 21-22 Mercy Tour.
They can wash with soap, they can wash with soda but they can’t get rid of the Peterborough odour.
🎶 Championship and you stunk it up 🎶
This is a great chant.
Half time entertainment:
@glasshalffull & Alan Swan, no spell check, gloves off, in a cage, both in away kits, mics set to vol 11, 3 x 3 minute rounds of defend the indefensible . You can park ya fireworks this is the true fan experience.
