Sadly, McCann is making the same mistakes as Fergie. To get 3 points in this league you always have to be on the front foot and attack. The tactics tonight were shocking. Even when 2-1 up he switched back to the system Posh used when they went 1-0 down. MOM RJJ

Hide AdWhy did we sit back and give them all their territory back? Pressing high got us back in the game and then we just backed off again. Unbelievable! MOM Knight.
@Rutlandspinner
Only fighting now to avoid bottom place. RJJ MOM. Joe Taylor couldn’t get a game at Kings Lynn, think he made one sub appearance, baffling how he is getting game time.
@paul_gauntlett
Flat first half ...no attack ...2nd half determined ...goals. .frustrating. MOM RJJ.
@CarolRo26469848
Typical Posh this season, Bottling it late on. MOM Knight - he was superb throughout.

@clarkbatfan
Worst team in Championship history. MOTM someone from Swansea.
@PaulDayNew
Brief glimpses, but defensive laspes cost us again. MOM Knight.
@MNurrish
Final nail in the coffin, but at least we’re scoring goals now. RJJ MOM.
@PUFC7
MOM Knight. Brief glimpses of hope and fight.

Hide AdWatching Swansea every week would bore me to death, blew them away in the first 20 minutes of the 2nd half and should have scored a few more. MOM Ricky-Jade Jones, best game in a Posh shirt yesterday, had Downes on toast all game, couldn’t cope with his pace, shame about injury.
@juppy95
There were remnants of the Manchester City game the way Posh played on the back foot before half-time. Courageous in the second half, battled hard. But when Posh got in front, it never looked like they were going to hold out, like they did in League One. Joe Ward MoM.
@DanMasonSport
Didn’t turn up for long enough. MOM RJJ.
@SteveDilley1
First 6 minutes of first half and first 15 of the second half. Other than that I don’t think we were there at all: MOM Joe Ward, always puts in the most yards and effort.
@theurbanpenguin
Josh Knight superb! Clarke-Harris’s place in the team surely under threat. Another v/poor game from him.

Hide AdRJJ MOM closely followed by Knight. Totally lost attacking impetus when Joe Taylor came on. I know we are looking to the future, but frustrating when we were competing well and there is still (technically) a chance to stay up. Not sure we are doing him any favours.
@lukewcliff
Game of two halves. Bad then good. Same result MOM RJJ.
@CHAMM24
Scoring goals isn’t an issue now. It’s game management. MOM RJJ
@AdammortonJ
Aside from 15 minutes we were hopeless, deserved loss. RJJ was probably deservedly MOM
@CrispLevi
If only we could defend. MOM RJJ.
@DavePufc
Can we play the rest of our home games on the Netherton 3G pitch? It looked a right state out there and couldn’t have been easy to play on for either side.
