    It's a shame he can't be bothered to dive a few yards. Could've thrown my cap on 3 of their goals from where I was sitting.

    I cannot believe I have just watched them throw it away. I am speechless.

    I thought same ill have to watch it back. People tell me prem teams looking at him but he was as bad as anyone that 2nd half. Shots seemed to roll past him.

    His antics as well didn't help. Don't mean the "injury" but winding fans up at 3-1. Cupping ears. Shushing gestures. Didn't help at all. Needs a strong word.....

    Backfired on him when he was getting chants of "what's the score keeper keeper" and your not laughing anymore.

    Conor won’t drop him. He’s got a free gig to EOS. Maybe one for the future but he’s looked way short of being first team material. Might do him more harm than good continuing to play him. Posh are a good side so he’ll not exactly be protected again on Monday by that back line.

    Apart from kick for assist, looked very ropey today. Hesitating with easy back headers, doesn't command 6 yard box or his full area. Needs to drop him to bench.

    Why? We have nothing to play for, and neither now has Conor since he has job full time. Now is the perfect time to play him.

    People have got to remember Flavell was 4-5 choice goalkeeper at beginning of season with little chance of first team football.

    The lad has done OK overall since coming in. It might be time to rest him though now. 2 errors today IMO. His positioning is suspect, but no surprise, as he's been dropped in the deep end. He shows a lot of promise, so not writing him off.

    I also thinks he's done OK was just reminding people he was not expected to be in first team at start of season.

    But I ask again mate, why? We have nothing to play for. Isn't this the best time for him to get men's football? When other teams having something to play for but we don't. Gives him plenty of experience to be our number 2/3 next season

    Gauci would have no doubt dropped a clanger or two today. Let’s be honest, every ‘keeper we’ve used has had their moments. Playing behind that backline, I reckon Lev Yashin would struggle.

    Keep going, Kieren. And Bland, plus Jalo. The last players that deserve criticism. A week ago, everyone was raving about Fabio and today I’ve read endless stick. I appreciate we all call it as we see it. But surely you don’t expect consistent quality from third division academy lads, with a handful of starts under them?

    The older lads who’ve been letting us down all season? Crack on.

    I have concerns about his inability to leave his line. When crosses come across the 6 yard box, he could step forward and catch or punch, but he just watches them.

    To me he seems to try to use his feet more than his hands.

    That's how the modern game wants keepers to train though. Bit mental if you ask me..!

    I mean when making saves, not the usual stuff which is expected.
