Oxford winning at Exeter. Means they go 5th, Blackpool 6th, Barnsley and Lincoln out

Derby have handled the ball twice in their box. No penalty.

Got to go to work.

Don't we normally win 4 nil when Demps scores first?

Bottle-job Barnsley dropping out of the play offs at the eleventh hour, last minute Lincoln losing their spot to Blackpool as it stands.

A win for Lincoln or Barnsley would change it.

Wouldn't like to see Blackpool creep in given their form, would much rather Barnsley feeling sorry for themselves.

Not sure who I want really - pluses and minuses to all of them. Oxford we demolished, so that's a plus, but they've also come good again. Blackpool aren't very good, but we'd have to overcome that Bloomfield blind spot. Lincoln blow hot and cold, though Joe Taylor's a menace and they don't concede many. Barnsley all over the shop but they could get Duff back short-term for playoffs.

Does Thomason make our best XI at present? He’s been rubbish the past few weeks.

And the key to a result is a good :kettle:

Feels like we've took the foot off the gas and are letting Peterborough back into it.

Barnsley winning means its Oxford as it stands.

Barnsley, by the way, have conceded two or more goals in each of their last seven games. One clean sheet in the last 18 games - a 0-0 at home to Cheltenham, who are in the relegation zone.

The Dempsey cross was "a poor one" because Dion overhit the pass IMO

I suspect that may be a case of resting on their laurels given how many points ahead they were ahead (and indeed behind).

Peterborough a very weird side. Were on great form but they don't look much - maybe making so many changes in midweek and then back again, maybe that they've lost impetus as Derby kept winning. Hard to put momentum back on, which is a reason a good win for us here would be doubly lovely

All season long Barnsley have been unusually likely to score and concede in each game. They shored up a bit when Pines came in but we broke his resolve. All over the shop.

Good linkup between AC & DC and Demps doing well to make up the numbers in the box. Nice.

Be nice to bang a few in so if Derby do concede one the nerves might kick in

I'm not sure on Peterborough's marketing. Posh! Bosh!

What's that all about?
It’s John Fisher, father of heavyweight boxer Johnny Fisher, whose catchphrase is ‘Bosh!’
So it'd be like us having a picture of Peter Kay's dad saying "Rola-Cola, give us a goal-a"

Quite incredible that they're not higher in the league given how many goals they've scored. Seems like the defence wins leagues and the strikers win matches.

That's the old truism (or a version of it)
