The brutal response of Peterborough United fans to a heavy home defeat: ‘Fergie out, abysmal players, cheapskate chairman, woeful, clueless, outclassed and even the man of the match was bad!’

Peterborough United fans didn’t hold back after watching their side’s heaviest home defeat in a Football League match for almost three-and-a-half years yesterday (January 15).

The manager, the chairman and the players all received stick on social media after a 4-1 mauling at the hands of Coventry City at the Weston Homes Stadium.

The PT asked for six word summaries and a man-of-the-match nomination. All replies to @PTAlanSwann on Twitter.

Woeful display way off the pace. MOM Cornell second half.
