    Had a good go at them, chances at both ends and we've come out on the wrong end. Had a good effort would rather lose that way than playing for a 0-0. Great effort lads onwards and upwards

    Don't know if you were there Manchester, but this was poor from us.

    One shot on target!! 17 corners against our 5!

    We never really threatened them after our goal, and we were poor down the flanks defensively and in the centre of midfield.

    Sorry, but it wasn't a great effort.

    First half we were the better team second half they had the upper hand. That will happen away from hone against the better teams. Decent performance. Not great. Not poor.

    I just find many opinions to be very black and white. Where are the grey areas of judgement?

    They weren't that good today. Scored one goal from a **** mistake by Williams and a brilliant free kick (that in my opinion wasn't even a foul).

    TBH, Peterborough could have had a hatful today.

    And if you don't believe me, watch the whole match on Player.

    Agree to some extent, WR, but Peterborough could have scored several goals today after the sending off. How many times did Bree get beaten, and how many times did Williams give the ball away in dangerous positions?

    He's 17. Sounds like this (in your opinion, which I'm not disallowing) is his first poor display. Defensively. Learning curve. For him and us in general. Foundations are being laid.

    Wish I could summarise as concisely as this! Spot on.

    Precisely after the sending off. Obviously they were going to get several chances to score against our 10 men. Peterborough are a quality team and I won't be getting too down hearted about that defeat

    It wasnt a poor performance by Bree whatever Cambstyke opinion is Whitey. Just one of those days when a (just) 17 year old comes up against a winger who is bigger and stronger and willing to intimidate/bully and be allowed to get away with fowling time after time. Part of the learning curve for Bree Im afraid but I thought he handled it pretty well.

    17 corners and they did not score from one of them! That is a measure of how much the defending has improved!
