The fact is Peterborough have got over the line after 45 games .The pen to do it is massively debatable but it doesn't alter the fact they've got the required points over the season .The owners McAnthoney is a complete bell end but I have no dog in the fight with Fergie junior .Peterborough aren't afraid to sell their best players and back themselves to reinvest and progress .It's a likeable model despite the respective incumbents at the helm in the boardroom and the technical area .However you have to respect the strategy because finally it's paid off for them .
It%u2019s not cheating for me, He didn%u2019t dive he lost control and barged into their player the free kick should%u2019ve gone to Lincoln. It%u2019s the worst decision I%u2019ve ever seen, the ref needs investigating

So if they are there on merit why have they not backed themselves to be there after 46 games without cheating in the 45th to avoid possibly having to get a point in the 46th to go up.That 46th game just happens to be against us who they have not beaten under DF in 10 games.So cheating is acceptable if you have had a great season?Is that what your saying Tyke? Surely not.Sorry it is never acceptable imo.That was blatant cheating to the highest degree.

As blatant an attempt at cheating as you will ever likely to see is how i saw it.Agree with the rest of your post though.
Just a reminder to everyone that the Peterbro game is on Sunday. Kick off 12 noon.
As much as I dislike Peterborough it seems poetic justice after the number of dodgy penalties that Lincoln have benefitted from this season.
Nothing to do with Fergie Tyke.Seriously I think Peterborough deserve to go up. Cannot argue over 45 games they have been one of the 2 best teams in the league. Yesterday they cheated in the 96th min to win a penalty that prevented any chance of Lincoln pipping them for a top 2 slot. We will never know now whether over 46 games they were the 2nd best team.If they lose to us next Sun and Lincoln win their final 2 games then they would not have been one of the 2 best teams in League 1 this season without that ridiculous dive yesterday which some how, inexplicably the ref fell for Sorry it leaves a bad taste and i would not be happy winning promotion in that way.As for Marquis there is pushing the boundaries and there is cheating. Blatant cheating.Marquis did the former which most good strikers do.
I’m sure that most of our fans were more annoyed at Lewis Guy diving all over the place were more annoyed at his cheating than hoping for a penalty.

Blatant cheating.Marquis did the former which most good strikers do. But every team in the division will probably get 3/4 pens a season where players have maybe gone down too easily. Lincoln got one against us, It evens itself out But the ref shouldn’t be giving a penalty there, that’s the big worry about this incident
It was a terrible decision by the referee and it sums up the level of refereeing in the lower divisions. On another day and with a different referee, the Peterborough lad probably gets a yellow, for %u2018simulation%u2019.On the MacAnthony interview, as much as I dislike the guy, I do like his passion for his Club and you certainly can%u2019t argue that he%u2019s backed his manager. I think a few of us have missed a bit of that passion from the Board (John Ryan%u2019esque). Good luck to them next season (they%u2019ll need it).
