    Peterborough (Home) Match Thread

    I'm not underestimating Peterborough but the only team they have beaten this season currently in the top half was Millwall 5-3 (who are 8th). That result stands out, the other high scoring wins have been against lower teams. They can score goals and have scored 5 twice, which has obviously...

    You realise this is Peterborough United not Man United?

    Have expectations exceeded reality

    At last some logic being talked here. Those that see total doom and gloom in two or three mediocre results should take a look at the results over a full season of any league-winning team. No team plays perfectly and wins every game, all will go through these patches at some time or other. There...

    Swindon (Away) Match Thread

    1. We are not going to win every game, what was the saying? win home and draw away. 2. When did we last lose a league game? 3. Every team is going to hit a bad patch, we have managed to draw 3 in a row playing 2 away games and a massively improving Blackpool. 4. All the top 6 teams with the...

    Rochdale (Away) Match Thread

    A few games ago Gillingham lost to Colchester and Barnsley in successive games, and followed up with a home draw against Oldham in the next but one game, now they are top. Bury haven't won in 4 counting the JPT game against L2 Morecambe Burton have only won 1 of the last 5 games Nothing to panic...

    Did Fisher Sanction Cole's Signing?

    Lots of things have been clearly stated, it doesn't necessarily make it true

    Did Fisher Sanction Cole's Signing?

    Apologies it this has already been posted, have read most posts about it but may have missed it. TM says: “It wasn’t for me to go to Tim Fisher and start asking for financial favours but everything behind the scenes is sorted and Joe’s here where he can enjoy his football and help us out at the...

    Don't worry, think about poor Burton

    I can't believe how some people can read into a post something that isn't there. Pressley only took over last week, and inherited a poor team based on previous results alone. I said he could have done us last week, and only suggested a draw against Blackpool should be seen in perspective to...

    Don't worry, think about poor Burton

    Would have been worse if results had gone against us but I know what you mean

    Don't worry, think about poor Burton

    Hammered 4-0 by Pressley's Plodders. Could have been us last week, and puts today's draw against Blackpool into perspective

    Player Ratings

    I thought Blackpool played really well, especially in the second half. Their defence had the measure of Murphy and Kent down the wings, and their number 9 looked dangerous on the break. I think they will climb the table quickly if they continue to play like this. So I am not too disappointed...

    Blackpool (Home) Match Thread

    Can't see 13000, according to TM we only have one “We have found ways of winning at home so far this seasonand hopefully with the backing of our supporter we can find a performance that keeps us rolling on,” lol wonder who it is...

    Chris Eagles?

    It is strange though, he's been consistently linked to us since the season started, even to the extent that some sources were saying he had already signed for us weeks ago. TM must have looked at him seriously previously, its possible something has changed, perhaps his wage demand. If he's not...

    Chris Eagles?

    TM likes to bring skilful players on for the last 20 minutes to terrorise tired defences. I see Eagles excelling in this role.

    Next 3 games = 9 points

    We've lost 3 games, all by the odd goal, 2 of them against current top 3 teams. In each game, one looked offside, one was a dubious penalty, and one was because of a mistake. We need to fear no-one IMO

    Fleetwood Town (Away) Match Thread

    Every week Burton seem to win (except today) Every week Walsall seem to win Yet we are only 3 points behind them with a game in hand. Other supporters must be saying "damn, Coventry have won again"

    It shows how far we have progressed when people are depressed about a scrappy 1-0 away win

    Venus Spills the Beans

    Brilliant piece, and just as some of us on here said about having to be patient and wait for the right players to become available. There have been posters who even accused TM of not keeping his word, hopefully now we all understand what is going on behind the scenes.
