My prediction is Shrewsbury Town 0-4 Peterborough United.

Worryingly I think the above 0-4 prediction could be correct
Posh have scored the most goals in the league, best goal difference in the league, top of the form table last 10 games. It makes bleak reading for us.
Really hope we can put up some fight and show some spirit aka Derby home game, and not fold like a pack of cards like we have to most teams in the top half this season

2 2 draw. Town guns blazing after Pompey put it up them.

Would snap your hand off for a clean sheet.

Have to say I'd be surprised getting anything from this game just like the Pompey game.
But I am hoping to start picking up points in the 3 games after that.

Heart says: Town 7-0 Peterborough Head says: *insert anti-town prediction here*To be a true anti-town fan you have to wish for defeat in the heart as well as the head. They live amongst us. "They love amongst us"?? Really? Leaving aside the nonsensical nature of that oxymoron, who amongst us genuinely wishes for defeats? WHO??? I am a fan, and have been for over 60 years, admittedly with varying levels of engagement, and I have never met such an individual. I really am fed up with having to defend people's right to express their opinion on a messageboard without their being attacked with foolish epithets: it amounts to a form of bullying.

I think you meant "live" - and I also think you missed the sense of irony underlying the original remark.

Fully anticipate Peter and his Bruhs to destroy us come Saturday. I would rather laugh than cry. I see it as a free hit. We have an insane amount of points somehow so I don't see any pressure on this one.

With our record against the better teams and the form they are in, I can only see a defeat. Let's hope I'm wrong

Anyway, back on topic; I agree that anything other than defeat would be fan-bloody-tastic, and I continue to hope, notwithstanding the lack of recent evidence to justify it.

We never get much information at all from Taylor in his pre-match interviews about the injuries so no idea if anyone will be back, but assuming no changes:
Marosi
Winchester - Dunkley - Pierre - Anderson - Benning
Kenneh - Perry - Shipley
Udoh - Bowman.
It’s probably going to be a rinse and repeat of the Portsmouth game, but please please Salop give me a reason to get out of my seat at least once.
Prediction - 3-0 defeat. Merry Christmas.

Any point would be good on Saturday. Heart says 3 but Head says 1 if we are lucky!

You may as well, as far as this board is concerned, just continue to be a thoroughly negative and boring individual, repeating, with tedious abandon, the self-same arguments. What a pointless exercise!

Back on topic please
Another toughie to follow the Pompey game ....
I think we will hold them to a score draw, you would hope that there will be a strong reaction from the squad following Saturday's defeat.
