Only one man that counts, in the opposition today.
Let's hope we smash them and then give our George a heroes send off!
Madge is fired up and ready to rouse us all into action.
Come on you Clarets

It's nice to be confident of a win. It's been a while.

Given recent events, I think Dyche is going to want a result here. Be interesting to see the line-up.
I think he will go strong and we will give Peterborough a good old tonking.

The cover of the programme was posted on Twitter, I like the retro-type look. Very nice. Might even buy one! (only a quid)

I can't see us tonking anybody at the moment but a good performance and 2-0 win will do me.
I won't be surprised to see Vydra missing.

Cork remains undroppable and Vydra still can't get a game. Oh dear.

Sign of intent from Hendrick maybe becoming cup tied, not sure what Bardsley is doing in the squad though? Good to see BPF and Koiki on the bench, I would have liked to see Benson in Midfield.

I despair for Vydra.....treated very shabbily by Dyche....never been given a chance.

Looks to me like we're wanting to sell Vydra this window and so don't want him injured or cup-tied.
As for Cork, I think one of Westwood or Cork had to play. We only have 3 central midfielders after all.

Dyche will soon be charged with kidnapping if he doesn't play him or let him leave.

A decent line up of fringe players but would have liked to have seen another younger player or 2 on the bench
Hope Vydra gets at least 30 minutes

Would have liked to have seen Koiki get a start down the left; he seems to be doing great for the U23's. Cork must have something on Dyche....still getting starts.

I like this line-up. Not too many changes except in defence. Jay-rod loves bashing in goals vs lower league teams and hopefully we can get a good morale boosting win.
Come on You Clarets

Feel a bit sorry for Vydra but with Barnes injured/horribly out of form it's a good chance to try and let Wood and Jay build a bit of a partnership.

I don’t get that team.
Why Hart? What possible reason is there to start him over BPF?
Why Wood/Rodriguez over Vydra? That makes zero sense.
Why Gudmundsson? I get it, he needs to “build fitness”. But we know what he’s like. One strong challenge and that’s it for a few more months.

Darren Ferguson's post-match comments following their defeat at Rotherham reflected in our team selection - they were bullied by bigger/stronger players.
Hopefully a sign of intent that we are looking for a dominant performance and a much needed confidence boost.

Can’t see how there’s anything to moan about with that team. Pretty strong line up on paper let’s hope they can deliver.
