Re 1st comment. Of course we will be there but it sickens us that we had a reasonable keeper in before except for his kicking but everyone agrees that he wasn't at fault for any of the goals he conceded. However we have a suspect goon in goal who inspires no confidence in the defence around him taking his place when we were playing reasonably well. Is it any coincidence that results have slipped since Lewis's return. If or when we lose tomorrow Fergie might at last see the light.

@25 Quail. Whilst I agree that a little more experience in the spine of the team would imho be useful, how disrespectful are you??? Without "the micks" money we would be in league 2 or worse. Its also time to accept that BF is not in charge any more and doesn't make decisions so change the record please! I assume you are one of these odd people that won't go and support their team while he is at the club.

@29 I cannot fault your logic, reminds me if only England didn't miss all those easy chances and concede such stupid goals they would have won the World Cup so often the rest would have given up trying. @30 I guess you will have to buy out Darragh if you really want to know, or we might find out at the match on Saturday... Oh I forgot you won't be there. @31 I have no idea who Billy Kee is but I am surprised Burton are not top cos I am thinking he must be a striker who does not miss easy chances. @33 don't worry, the comments are from an interview on Talksport in Aug 2011. Some poor journalism from Sky. I am surprised Joe is still in the team and am as frustrated as anyone that he seems to want every thing his way, but if he does play then I will cheer him and hope he plays a but part as that would mean all the action is at the other end.

Article on Sky Sports - transfer new about Lewis. Another year - surely not , please no Peterborough goalkeeper Joe Lewis says he is content to see out his contract at London Road despite speculation surrounding his future. Lewis had a trial at QPR last month and has more recently been linked with a move to Championship rivals West Ham after the Posh told him he was free to leave the club. However, the former England Under-21 international has said that he would happily remain with Peterborough for another year if no club makes a satisfactory offer for him. Asked about his future he told talkSPORT: "I honestly don't know to be honest. "The club are planning for me to go but I don't think until I'm fit and the offers come in and one of the offers meets their valuation then I'll go. "Until that happens I'm a Peterborough player. I've got a year left on my contract and I'm happy to honour that contract."

@27, lol, you obviously got your lad to write that as it was quite good english!! Lewis is average. He wants to go, but may sign a new contract if he can't find a new club and people still like him? Having said that 90 per cent of people dont want him in goal at the moment and perhaps he don't care if he is picked, perhaps we need to look at Fergie or someone at the club needs to tell us why he's being picked. Fergie slated him after the game but continues to pick him, odd? see ya tomorrow.
