Lost [ Tue 12th Apr ] v Peterborough Sports, KO 7:45pm HSC Final @SIXFIELDS

That was a weird one. We came out of the traps slowly but after the first 10/15 minutes I thought we were marginally the better side. However, we've lost 2-0 and they also missed a penalty, so I can't really suggest we should have won the game. As Burge said in his post match interview, it's about what happens in both boxes. We aren't defending balls in to the box very well at the moment possibly due to the lack of height in the team just now. If that's the case we've got to do more to stop crosses and stop giving away free-kicks out wide in dangerous areas.

I thought Jesse was superb again, Fernando, Warbs and Paddy too. I thought we won the midfield battle but their central midfielder won MoM despite missing a penalty. I must have been watching a different game!

As disappointing as it was to lose there are bigger fish to fry at the weekend.

I'm not really bothered to lose that at all. I don't think we were the worst side overall, and it wasn't our strongest side. Three times I've seen sports this season and they've not been impressive at all, despite beating us all three times.

Absolutely classless club from top down, and in my very best Kevin Keegan voice, I'd absolutely love it if we beat them in the play offs.

It was another case of missed opportunities against them, they must have a hex on us or something.
Their bubble will burst one day as they can't be sustainable on crowds of under 300.

With Coalville dropping points again last night PS are sure to finish second. I am hoping we can finish 4th so we can ruin their season in the final on their ground in front of their thousands of fanatical fans.

Was their big day out and they embarrassed themselves! Throwing a flare on the pitch, not once but twice!

Their management team were as bad, all I could hear from them was moaning. Their manager was slagging off their goalscorer all game, but once he scored he was climbing all over him!

On another day with a full strength side we would have won that in my opinion. We were badly missing a clinical striker, I believe Will Jones will come good, but we need to be patient.

Jon Dunham's report

It was a much better game than I expected, they really are a bogey team, but then so were Royston.
Things I noticed last night, Paddy Jessie and Fernando all excellent, interesting to see Lauric and Snelus have a start, it shows how good Graham is, our management team are very professional on the bench, theirs not so.
Our fans are brilliant, theirs not so!
