Wed 16 March 19:45 Peterborough v Swansea
A midweek trip to Cambridgeshire is on the horizon for avid Swans fans assuming they recover in time from their weekend away, as we take on another recently promoted League 1 side, bottom club Peterborough.
Nicknamed “The Posh” they’ve played at the London Road (presently named Weston Homes) Stadium since their formation and their nearest rivals are Northampton Town, 37 miles away. They finished runners up in League 1 last season, and above Blackpool, but look favourites to go straight back down.
Grant McCann returned to Peterborough as manager for the second time on Feb 24, after being sacked by Hull’s new owners.
In his four games in charge
W0 D2 L2
28/2 Peterborough 0 - Hull 3
4/3 Huddersfield 3 - Peterborough 0
8/3 Bournemouth 1 - Peterborough 1
12/3 Peterborough 2 - Stoke 2
They’ve lost 23 times this season and their last win was on 11 Dec, a 2-1 home win over Millwall. Since then they’ve gone 14 matches without a win.
Nicely timed match for the Swans to end Peterborough’s dismal run and gift them the win, surely not? Well who knows what Swans team will turn up on the night, but Grant McCann has already plotted a win and a draw against us this season whilst managing Hull.
