How can we hope to win without your vocals?

If the season ends poorly, it'll all be your fault!

Was there any word about Holden missing from the squad? Will he be back for mid week?

I'm hoping yesterday's performance will be the confidence boost we needed. We made the chances early, and more importantly, took them. Won't happen that way regularly but a couple of goals in the first half make all the difference. Hull proved a couple of times that our defence can and will be tested, but if the front lads perform we can win.

Could go 10th here with a win. Think we are all desperate to see some consistency and a bit of form - this run of 4 home games out of 5 is the time to do it if we're going to.

This really should be our first par of wins in a row. Peterborough are a poor side, we won our last game convincingly and we are out for revenge after the complete shambles when we last played them. Hopefully we start with 2 up front and attack them from the off.

I'll go for 3-1.

I believe he'll be in the squad tomorrow.

No mention of that Brazilian chap anywhere. However, who the hell Pete is, I've no idea.

After Saturdays win against Hull it would a shame to lose again against Peterborough

Apparently Pete and his mates had a particularly exhausting croquet match on Sunday. They suffered a narrow defeat to Daggenham Girl Pipers but came through without injury. "Bolton should be a piece of cake after that" , commented Pete.
