Pick players with webbed feet given the likely conditions (do we have any who were born in Leicester?)

Remember Luton 0-3 City.....
PBoro, since they have changed the way they play... (1st couple of games tried to play similarly to us.... then ditched for getting ball into final 3rd to maddison/eisa/toney and picking up all available pieces) have been pretty much unstoppable.
Stat on Twitter with most chances created... Maddison on something like 26, next closest player was 16 ish...
Massive massive task for us today. Even more so with our current form and misfiring front line.
Peterborough are expecting to lose Toney in Jan... he very nearly went on deadline day apparently.
Would take a draw today for certain.
Going to be difficult in the conditions, expect a few slip ups if we get silly at the back a la Rotherham...
Personally would go:
4/diamond/2
Diamond including Kelly (base) and Walsh, O'Hare at top, Shipley left for balance. Back 4 anybody's call...would honestly prefer Mason at LB but think Robins will go will McCallum to cope with ariel threat.
Up top...depends on who is fit... Godden if fit is a definite for me... and despite his horrific finishing at the moment, hiwula centrally too... as although he hasn't hit a barn door for a while...his movement is and continues to be good....
Interesting one this!!PUSB!!

Think the pitch will be very heavy rather than slick, affecting our passing game.

Expecting a defeat.

Travelling down wasn't confident, but now I'm a couple of beers in I'm feeling 3 points. Pissing down here mind, but locals don't seem worried, say the pitch holds up well and is in mint condition. Called off at 2.30 then.

Lincoln off, that's not that far away!
I haven't seen Peterborough this season but I'm sure they're not scoring the goals they are playing hit and hope.
If the conditions are bad it will affect them just as much.

It’s not a day to play tippy tappy football. I’m worried the ball will get stuck in a puddle when we pass it across the back

Switch it up today I think. Max and Baka up top, back three, someone other than Shipley taking set pieces.

Reckon it will be a cracker today. Both sides going for it.

If we don't go behind early, as what has happened recently, the pressure cooker will slowly come to boiling.

If it is it will be the first time I've heard of siblings with the same christian name and different surnames!

Their local paper says there's some flooding and road closures and heavy rain forecast for this afternoon.

Conditions could suit Kastaneer off the bench. Might break his own slide record.

Biamou starts but no other strikers on the bench. Not sure what our option is at 60 minutes when Biamou is knackered.

I assumed Kastaneer, though not exactly the epitome of match fitness either.
