SAT 21 Dec 2019 - Peterborough United survived a late scare to claim a decent point from a goalless draw at League One promotion rivals Bristol Rovers today (December 21). The point was enough to take Posh into an automatic promotion place.
Tuesday 24 December 2019 - Peterborough United are now 5/1 third favourties to win the League One title with Sky Bet after moving into an automatic promotion place on Saturday (December 21).
Thursday 26 Dec 2019 - Doncaster ended a run of five matches without a win after a stunning 3-0 victory at high-flying Peterborough.
Sunday 29 Dec 2019 - Rotherham United moved above promotion rivals Peterborough United with a thumping 4-0 victory.
Sunday 29 December 2019 - Peterborough United chairman Darragh MacAnthony has appealed for Posh fans to stay patient after back-to-back Christmas defeats.
Posh lost 4-0 at League One promotion rivals Rotherham United today (December 29) after a 3-0 home defeat at the hands of Doncaster Rovers on Boxing Day.
Posh have slipped from second to sixth as a result and there was plenty of angry negativity on social media this evening, much of it to be found on the chairman’s Twitter timeline.
MacAnthony pointed to a crippling injury list (Marcus Maddison joined the absentees today) and insisted first-team reinforcements would arrive in January transfer window.
MacAnthony said on Twitter: “The state of comments on my timeline . We have 40% of squad on injury list, Beevers/Boyd half fit, but played, bench full of youth teamers & 2 x 17 year olds in team today. And yeah we might get battered at Lincoln (on New Years Day), but tough times don’t last.
“When we get players back and get a chance to get haf-fit players back to fitness, and sign a couple then we will be back in business & firing again. So save the outrage & over the top nonsense about a season ending in December.
“Thanks to Posh fans who see this & understand current challenges.”
Maddison, Josh Knight, Siriki Dembele, Idris Kanu, Serhat Tasdemir, Nathan Thompson and Frazer Blake-Tracy all missed today’s Rotherham defeat. (https://www.peterboroughtoday/football/posh)
