0-0 it is......

 

[Tinman]

The posh player is having constant digs off the ball on Murphy

 

[chuckbert]

Ruben getting frustrated

 

[Carlislehotdog]

Great corner by Bennett and Moore

 

[Sarge]

Cmon Oxford

 

[chuckbert]

Murphy's doing a lot in both attack and defence. Hope he had his weetabix this morning.

 

[chuckbert]

Beuatiful view of the dreaming spires of Cowley from the pitch on the sky cameras there.

 

[Swaby39]

Both teams playing well in their defensive and middle third. Very mature performance from Posh, you can tell Ferguson has been here before. He’ll be delighted to get out of here 0-0.

Katongo is shitting bricks and I wonder how much Greg Leigh might be able to add to that in this second half.

Otherwise I wouldn’t change much, just more of the same with a better final ball and whatever happens, don’t lose.

 

[Jolteon]

Tense. I'd say we're edging it but need to put one away asap.

 

[OUFCwaffle]

How have we played?

 

[tonyw]

CA-GEY!

Reminds me a lot of the Pompey tie four years ago. Same outcome, I hope.

 

[Swaby39]

How have we played?

Both teams playing a little bit with the handbrake on I think but it’s a good game of football. Expect us to blink first which will open it out.

 

[pommy80]

Good first half. More of the same please.

 

[Northstandboy]

A decent 45, only going to get more nervy!

 

[UTM]

Definitely need a early goal , in the second half.

 

[Wanderlust2]

Ferguson definitely playing for the draw - and you can't blame him. Whether or not he dispenses with two holding midfielders in the second half we'll see, but I'd be surprised if he did, so it's up to you guys to force his hand and score a couple.
Posh won't play like this in the second leg so you may well need a lead going into it. Hopefully the man from Mumbai has a cunning plan

 

[Steve Gilbert]

I’d like to see Browne come on for Ruben. He is getting frustrated and once that happens he offers very little.

We are edging it and Posh look nervous when we break. The game is there for the taking.

COYY

 

[Mad Dog]

Need an early 2nd half goal to settle us down, been a bit nervy at times!

Shooting towards our fans n the 2nd half, let’s make it count.

Come on lads

I don’t want to nit pick but Buckingham is very much a Cowley lad and that is certainly nothing like Mumbai

COYY

Yep, and he's already on a yellow, last thing we need is a sending off
