    Personally I think that is the best I have seen Doyle play for us. He was outstanding and worked their defenders until they dropped. There were many MOM today which is great. Also take a bow city fans we were also outstanding, we even put the ref on the rack as well;)

    Ref did us a favour actually. He gave a few unjust decisions against us in a short period of time with the game at 0-0. This fired up the fans, and the players responded by stepping up another gear, and we scored soon after.

    But yes, the ref was crap!

    Doyle's record shows he's a decent player and if he has the right support up front he can score goals.

    As we all know, he cant play the lone striker role. It's a shame Hopkin didn't.

    What is it with these 'refs' , didn't notice him til second half, then gives half a dozen or so 'nothing 'free kicks to peterboro then just couldn't wait to give 'em a penalty...so it's not just when we are losing...

    We got behind the team because the team gave us something to get behind

    And the first time he's had real support up alongside him. It's not rocket science and he's been crying out for some help all season.

    I agree - Doyle’s best game in a City shirt - was close to MOM but Butters was outstanding

    I’ve seen a replay of the penalty decision on Twitter. He clearly takes the ball clean, there is no way it could have been a foul. I think the ref had money on Peterborough to score.

    Can't argue with that they were a team that knew they needed to win

    aye, they got a bit on top of us in the first half but we pissed all over them after that. Played with real purpose which was nice to see
