He also said at the start of the season "If Posh arent promoted, he'll step aside and sell the club"! Will that still stand as they wasnt given the opportunity to get promoted? Does anyone think they had it in them to go up if it did carry on? I dont! For me, I thought Pompey and Rotherham would of been the 2 clubs going up with us personally!
To have 3 of the best strikers in the league in your team and by far the best goals for, but also, 10 losses and the worst goals against in the top 10 teams. It's that reason, I didnt see them going up.

Magwitch, "they" are Peterborough.
Pasty, yes, I do think thet had it in them!... provided Toney stayed in their side.
Their recent little blip, which was in between a long streak of wins, coincided with Toney missing two/three games with injury/suspension. As soon as he was back, they won games, without looking, most of them! He does seem to be a cut above at this level and a difference between teams.
To be fair, Mr MacAnthony has every right to feel aggreived mainly due to the Wycombe issue - game in hand taking them above Posh and shifting them out of play offs.... with game in hand being against us!!
I have been wishing he would pipe down in the media, mainly for our own benefit as it is clear the EFL, to some extent have listened to him!.... but I would have certainly wanted Dave Boddy to have done the same for us were we in the same position!
I think the 2nd promotion spot would have been between them and Oxford. Oxford were also flying, winning game after game after a blip where a couple of their best midfielders were missing.
Rotherham had started to drop points left right and centre.... hence the gap opening up between us and them.
Would have been a cracking (and very nerve wracking!!!) end of season!!
