More people would be happy with a 2-0 away win then a 2-2 draw being 2-0 up with 5 mins left? Surely thats a bit obvious
Had we won 2-1 and not coded in injury time we wouldn't be having inquest into problems though
Anyways as for catching teams above us we have another good chance next week if we best pboro as walls all play Gillingham and Burton away to Oldham who have like 6 draws and a win I think over last 7 or 8 games so very hard to beat

Peterborough is going to be a very tough games, on there day they are one of the top sides in the division. Score goals for fun but concede as well.
Yea at 2-0 I said if we can see this out then everything will be good again after the negativity of the last week, how quickly it can change
And that's the key, this is on the back of 4-5 average and below par performances.

5 games in which we remain unbeaten
Just imagine how good it will be when we are clicking again.We are 4th , with a game in hand
Top 2 playing each other next week
4 points from 2 games, and we push on even further
Look where we are to where we have come from
Maddison back in 3 weeks, and then we will press on

We're tough to beat this year, 5 games in which apparently we haven't played well yet we haven't even looked in danger of losing any of them.
Yeah that is pleasing.

Highlight of Peteboro tonight - they looked usefuul. However, if we win either of the next 2 games at home, we should still be 4th, which after a third of the season gone (and with Maddison creeping nearer to return) is very pleasing - we wouldn't have believed this possible after a pretty dire pre-season:thinking about:
I remember after Oxford it was that we were going to get hammered every game.
Pboro striker looks like big mofo. Scared to think what he might do with a reda less defence.
Same time excited to see how cole play at ricoh.
7 day countdown starts now!

They will play open I expect so going to be chances at both ends.
Think its going to be a case of both teams will have a hat full of chances but who can be more clinical on the day, hope Armstrong has found his shooting boots.

Christ alive, does everything have to be so black and white?
Surely it's possible to be pleased we're 4th (midtable would be succcess for me this season!) but also point out our form is not that of a 4th placed team, without that being negative?

Agree. The trend is downwards at the moment, but at the same time there is still a lot to be very happy about.
What sort of form is 9 points from the last 5 games then? Stay unbeaten in the next two home matches and suddenly people will be talking about what a fantastic run we are on.
If you offered me 76 points now I'd take it, which is the total we would get if we continued our 'concerning' form for the rest of the season.

I'd hope he's been aiming for 3 points from every game tbh.
I'm not happy with the draws against Blackpool and Swindon either. But these sort of results happen over the course of a season to all teams at the top, we're unbeaten in 5 whilst apparently not playing well and we're still in a great position.

Yeh good point from ccfc
This form can easily be transformed into solid good form
It's not worth panicking or over analysing about just yet

How is Maddison only 3 weeks away? Has that been mentioned by anyone from the club or just or poster/physios on here surmising because he might have been spotted in training?

Not sure where that has came from, don't think the club has said anything. Think I may have read they are hoping for round December so possibly another 5 weeks minimum being optimistic

Plus again, tbh, he's only played a few first team games in his life, so it would be unwise to raise expectations on him too much.
From what I read think he'll be playing u21s by lat enovember and first team contention december
Yea, he has a full preseason behind him though so once he's fully recovered from injury it shouldn't be long before he is back in the fold
Would be nice to get back to the triangles pass and move we had till he got injured. Match vs crewe still best I've seen us play
That's not what you have to worry about. What if we get to the end of the season and we are 2 points off the play-offs, then you can look back at this Swindon game as the point we threw it away.
And we could clinch promotion by a point?
Look noone is happy with yesterday in any event
You finish where you deserve to, we're in a great position and if that's the case then we weren't good enough in the remaining 32 games to finish in the play offs.
It's a bit of a concern, and shows how important those first 3 games were.
