Weak/inexperienced bench if we get injuries/tiredness?  :s

Big game for De Val. Chance to show what he can do. If Forrester carries on where he left off we should get one or two chances. Just need to keep a clean sheet.

Some have been calling for de val to get a chance including me

Hadn't noticed Peterboroughs decline of recent - 4 points in 9 games! I suspect they're due a win, but then we're on a roll especially being away. Sounding like a tasty match so far.

De Val - interesting. Brave but possibly logical to replace him from what's been said. Disappointing, but interesting to see what Harry Middleton can do. Huge game for him.

De Val off for Middleton, injury?

Seems like he's been riled and vulnerable to getting sent off. Without the booking, I think he'd have stayed on.

He's a tough player, I don't agree with what Filo said above.

I never said he was n't tough, you have to wonder why he never gets a look in, the last time he played it was the JPT game and he was awful

Aggression is a part of De Val's game. If you try to take that away he won't be the same player. They should leave well alone, better the De Val you know.

At minute would say no not any real chance either end took de val off because he had been booked and involved in a couple other challenges I would think and Maddison for them falling over with any slightest of touches

I think both Keegan and Wabara will miss the next game with their 5th bookings today. If they could have hung on just one more game they would have avoided the ban   :facepalm:

I think Forrester may be on 4 yellows as well

Yep, I never meant you did, but agree something isn't right. I think the only time I saw him play was at Yeovil and he was brilliant in all ways. He is a bit easy to rile in a physical game like this where the opposition are desperate and will do anything for a result.

He has great potential. I'd love to hear how Dickov sees his development.

Think cut off date for all but Prem League is now end of November for 5th booking

Well we got the clean sheet. Got to be happy with that. Onwards and upwards.

7 points for 9 and 3 clean sheets will take that for the rest of the season. Very good Xmas

Many thanks DG61. Just checked FA site and I am now feeling a lot better!  :thumbsup:

I was going on the media saying Wabara was suspended last week and I thought they had included a phantom booking at Weston. Now it seems they were wrong for more than one reason.  :facepalm:

OK game today, especially the second half.  We had a spell of pressure, then so did they.  I guess a draw was a reasonable result, and we defended well.  Another clean sheet - just a shame we couldn't create a winner.

I've seen a lot worse games finish 0-0.
