Peterborough have had a typically inconsistent start to their season, in which they have failed to draw a match, which in itself, tells its own story. The Posh were dire at home to Stockport last week but recorded an impressive 3-0 win at Brentford just a few weeks earlier. Instrumental again this season has been last year’s top scorer Andy Clarke, who netted 19 goals for the London Road team last term, he has got four goals already this season.

Last Time Out | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The last time Town met Peterborough was way back in the 1993/94 season when in March, Town beat the Posh 3-2 in an entertaining match in front of over four thousand spectators. It was the Mariners who went behind, however, when in the 9th minute, Tony Adcock scored for Peterborough. But three goals from Paul Groves, Gary Childs and Steve Livingstone secured the points for Town. Dominic Iorfa got a late goal for the Posh to ensure a jittery last few minutes for the Mariners.
Town Team: Crichton, McDermott, Agnew, Futcher, Rodger, Ford, Childs, Gilbert, Groves, Livingstone, Mendonca.
Peterborough Team: Barber, McDonald, Spearing, Greenman, Howarth, Welsh, Williams, McGorry, Adcock, Charlery, Brissett. Attendance: 4,504 Peterborough Head-to-Head (50th on The Opposition Ladder).
