Blackpool v Peterborough Official Matchday Thread 18.12.21

Like reading this thread a few hours after the match.
Nobody watching online has mentioned the handball in the box by Posh in the 1st half.
It was right in front of me and I thought the defender clearly controlled the ball with his arm.
Anyone see it??
I also thought posh hand balled it so we should have also had a pen. Thought the ref and linesmen were abysmal in the first half to be honest. Got so many decisions wrong yet again. Championship plagued by bad referees

Yes
 
Did we over water the pitch at half time. It was very sluggish for the first 20 mins or so of the second half. You could see on a couple of occasions the ball almost stopping in puddles. Defo helped them at the time.

Yes I thought that as I saw it happening at HT….they over egged it

Can someone ask them to stop?
It’s not the middle of summer. Not really necessary.
 
16 will be enough.
I don’t think ‘pool will need that many points to be safe this season, between 10 and 15 points should do it. There are at least 3 teams if not more will end up below you.
However, I must say I did fear for ‘pool when you went behind so early but you came good in the end.
Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas, enjoy yourselves and keep safe 👍
 

Wordy interpretation of the days events.
I'm sure it's because we have virtually have identical views of the game that we see the same match. Even the picture of the Posh fans is the same as I sent to Insiderson who was at home self-isolating.
Good stuff.

Yep to sum it up played OK in a few spells but poor on the ball at times.

Peterborough had 1 good created chance and scored it, slack defending.

We could have done much better throughout but produced a few moments of quality.

Few annoyances spotted like Bowler playing inside rather than hugging the touchline, don't get that he's best running at players.

But we haven't scored for ages and got 3 today.

Good win to put us well clear again and bring a bit of confidence back.

👍
i dont think it was slack defending if we had scored that goal we would be waxing lyrical about it, outstanding pass, and superb finish. the rest i'd agree with
 
I thought it was for orig header as they have a player in a clearly offside position pretty much in direct line between the header and Grimshaw, so interfering with play ?
Looking at the video it could be either interfering or just plain offside when he missed the knock in.
Personally if the player in front of Grimmy isn't interfering with play I haven't a clue what you would need to do to interfere other than pulling the keepers shorts down.
