Player ratings

Nobody could get near Declan Frith

Successful dribbles: 32. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Player ratings

A brace, and Jimmy-Jay Morgan takes the afternoon — 8.42

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Jimmy-Jay Morgan provided it, and the 8.42 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Squad

A late step up for Alex Bass

At 28 the improving is meant to be over. It is not: 3 points better than the mark taken at the start of the year, which is the sort of thing that happens to players who take the boring parts of the job seriously.

Squad

James Bolton in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Peterborough United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The terraces

Peterborough United supporters have found a favourite in Cian Hayes

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Cian Hayes has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Match

Jimmy-Jay Morgan the difference as Peterborough United beat Port Vale

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Jimmy-Jay Morgan. 2‑0 against Port Vale, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Match

Chris Conn-Clarke sends Peterborough United through

Cup ties wait for somebody to seize them, and Chris Conn-Clarke obliged against Cambridge United. 2‑0 on the night, and the name in the next round’s hat is Peterborough United.

Match

Peterborough United run riot against AFC Wimbledon

3‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Player ratings

Both of them Matthew Garbett's — 8.03

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.03, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Player ratings

Jimmy-Jay Morgan, 20, plays like he has been here for years — 8.10

A mark of 8.10 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 20-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Squad

Alex Bass in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Peterborough United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The terraces

Peterborough United supporters have found a favourite in Cian Hayes

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Cian Hayes has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Chris Conn-Clarke

Marked 8.31 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Player ratings

Cian Hayes was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.31. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Squad

No hiding place for David Kamara

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to David Kamara, and the manager let it.
