Hopefully the racist ones get suitably punished.
If Weds blow it they will be back

It was a typical Pato performance from his time with us. 100% effort, won headers, some crap touches but then gets a goal when you need one.

To be fair Wednesday are a huge club

As for Peterborough, I can’t remember seeing such a limp performances from a side - and I’m a season ticket holder at CCS!

Signed by Stoke in June 2022. Loaned to a League One club in January 2023. Released by Stoke in May 2023.
The last of his nine games for Stoke came back in October. They were thrashed at home 4-0 by mid-table Watford.

Never seen him wear one playing for Wales, though.
Joking aside, I'll make a prediction that Vaulks, Paterson and Flint barely get any time in the Championship if Wednesday get promoted. If they do, Wednesday will be in a relegation battle.

You’d want him with you in the trenches.
Meet the person who fell asleep around the hour mark and then was woken up by all of the noise when Wednesday scored the winning penalty :hehe:
Believe it or believe it not, I always thought Wednesday could turn it around, because they were playing against a flakey club. In recent years, Peterborough have been a high scoring side that always have conceded lots of goals - they’ve always been capable of conceding five in any given game.

I’m with you on this, after the first leg, I thought that Wednesday could turn it round, for the reason that you mention & with the atmosphere that they can generate. Probably not another combination of sides in the playoffs like it.

We were right to release Flint.
But hes miles better than Simpson. So if Simpson was playing yes he would.

I did have a feeling it could’ve been on the cards, but still, what a comeback. Must’ve been a great experience to have been in Hillsborough last night (unless you were in the away end).
Don’t have a Sky sub so had to contend with the scores coming through, switched back and forth between Sevilla/Juve and Basel/Fiorentina on the telly last night instead - both entertaining encounters. First time since 1989-90 when there will be Italian sides in the finals of all European competitions (in the days when there were three of course), with one of them being an all Italian affair.

Vaulks and Flint dropped and they turn it around, what’s the chances.

They are direct players
They are effective
No point in passing the ball around like Glen Hoddle all day long

Didn't see the game, but the chances of Vaulks and Flint making an impact in the last 20 minutes or so of a 'Hail Mary' kind of game are probably quite high. Vaulks forces mistakes and 2nd balls by pinging it long and throwing the ball 30 yards, and Flint on the end of set pieces etc, ideal for them really. Ask them to play from a standing start though and the pair of them are ****ed, i mean really ****ed. If spoiling, direct hopeful arms and legs football is required then look no further than those two.
