Turns out he did, with Gary Lund lining-up for County. What a bizarre and oddly fascinating competition the Anglo-Italian Cup was…

And I think another ex Town player in Phil Turner, lining up for County as well.

Massive Wednesday getting a massive hiding at Peterborough. 3-0 down after an hour. This after recording 96 points; a football league record to not win automatic promotion.

Not a great omen for County ahead of their final tomorrow.

4-0. This is turning into the biggest kicking Darren Ferguson has given anyone since his ex-wife answered him back on his dad’s driveway.

Huge bottle job from Wednesday this last couple of months. Cruising towards auto, drop out with a month to go and now all but out in the POSF1L. Ha!

We had more shots, more shots on target and far more corners.  They did mess-up big time.  So close to automatic promotion as well.  Fine margins and then big margins.

It’s often the team who just miss out on automatic promotion that mess up the playoffs. Look at Northampton and Wrexham last year, and now Wednesday.

Better to sneak up into the playoffs on a roll than drop into them from above. As we know!!!

Such is the absolute mental nature of the play offs, I wouldn't be surprised if Wednesday somehow pull it off in midweek!

There's nothing in football that comes close to the play-offs for me.

Most of the season Wednesday have been in the auto promotion spot. A catastrophic loss of form when they thought they were home and hosed saw them just nudged out. Tonight being hammered by Peterborough who finished nigh on 20 points behind them don't sit right with me. I think that many of them(players) have had eyes on fancy holidays and never thought they would be playing football any more, only to find out at the last minute, that they can't go on them(the holidays) & they have to raise themselves again and play on for a few more weeks. Holiday plans in chaos, gone, lost & serious abuse from the wags. I think some of them have thought F this, i am going on that holiday. Maybe controversial thinking, but i wouldn't put anything past what human nature can do, if it needs to, to get the short term result at the expense of what would seem to the rest of us, a complete reverse of what we would expect. Also don't forget that promotion would have inevitably meant that many of the players would have been replaced next season as deemed not up to Championship standard. Just my pennies worth to try and explain a very very strange result.
