Peterborough United were gritty rather than fluent, but winning when not at your best is a great habit, plus six different man-of-the-match nominations
There was a bumper response to the PT’s post-match request for an eight-word reaction to a 2-1 home win over Shrewsbury Town.
And man-of-the match nominations went to six different players with midfielder Archie Collins winning the popular vote. The difference in how different fans rate the same player continues to amaze!
