06/08/2011 - nPower Championship - Peterborough United 0-1 Millwall (Keogh)
Disappointing result, especially as we dominated the game, couldn't convert any chances and we paid for that in the end.
09/08/2011 - League Cup - Burton Albion 1 (Tunnicliffe O.G) - 3 Peterborough (Tomlin3)
Good result and a hat-trick from Lee Tomlin gave sealed a place in the 2nd Round for a young Posh side which featured 3 players from the youth team.
13/08/2011 - nPower Championship - Barnsley 0-0 Peterborough
Hardly any chances created by either side, both lacked spark and that final pass but a good defensive performance from all.
16/08/2011 - nPower Championship - Peterborough 1 (Tomlin) - 0 Bristol City
Fantastic defensive performance allowed us to get our first victory in the league. 16 year old Matt Sparrow made his debut for The Posh and did well in a difficult game for the youngster. Hopefully we can carry on this form and get up the table.
20/08/2011 - nPower Championship - Ipswich 2 (Edwards, Webber) - 1 Peterborough (Boyd)
Missed chances cost us again, strikers couldn't convert and Ipswich made the most of their chances. Maybe a change is needed up top to liven things up a little.
23/08/2011 - League Cup - Wolves 3 (Ebanks-Blake2, Rhodes) - 1 Peterborough (Brisley)
Good performance from the boys but the quality of the Premier League side was on show and they fully deserved to win the match.
27/08/2011 - nPower Championship - Peterborough 2 (Brisley, Ajose) - 0 Watford
A great win from Posh saw us come out victorious against a tough Watford side. Man of the Match George Boyd put in a great performance with 2 assists for The Posh.
August Review
7 points from 5 games in August leaves us 9th in the league. A very good start to the season and despite being knocked out of the League Cup by Wolves, the Board are satisfied with my efforts so far.
