LIVE: Peterborough United vs Nottingham Forest- Posh trail at the break
Anything that isn’t a Posh win will see them relegated to League One for next season, even if they draw and Reading lose, it will not be official but it will be as good as given Posh’s poor goal difference.
It may still happen anyway if Reading win but Posh must do all they can first and hope for the best.

The time Posh almost ruined Forest’s promotion party
The day Peterborough United almost ruined Nottingham Forest’s promotion party thanks to ‘Baywatch’ ‘the King’ and an inspired goalkeeper, but then Stan Collymore charged to the rescue
Peterborough United host Nottingham Forest at London Road on Saturday (April 23) with much riding on the game for both teams.
The situation
The situation is simple. Posh have to win or they are down. Given that Reading are 7 points clear, only a win for Posh, coupled with Reading dropping points will keep the battle going on into next week.
If Posh were to get a point and Reading to lose, then the gap would be 6 points with 6 to play for but the comparative goal differences of -45 and -28 means that Posh would be relegated in all but name.
If Barnsley don’t win, they are down.
