What is the Point of Peterborough Sports?

I don't know what annoys me most about the forthcoming away fixture at Peterborough Sports.  

Is it the fact that, odds are, they'll give us a thumping?  

Is it the fact that this pipsqueak of a nothing club is the latest bankrolled hobby-team for us to come up against?

Perhaps it is the fact they are doing "work" at the ground during the Festive period which restricts the stadium capacity to 20?

Maybe it was the way they easily tempted away a couple of our best players during pre-season?

Or is the plastic nature of a club where they crowdfund buying flags, and then only make the total because the club stepped in and paid the large balance they couldn't raise?  Tinpot.

But, on balance, as of today, the most annoying feature of this shoddy excuse for a club is NOT that they've only allocated us 250 tickets for the game at their place, it's the fact they've PRINTED these off and we have to make an extra effort to get over to Latimer Park and PHYSICALLY purchase them....Jeez, hasn't the 21st Century reached their corner of Cambridgeshire yet?

We have become so used to downloading tickets purchased online, or live-streaming footage that the idea of making an effort to get out of our armchairs and queue for tickets seems practically Dickensian.  You queue for FA Trophy Semi-Final tickets at Telford.  You queue to purchase tickets for Fulham or Leeds in the FA Cup.  You shouldn't have to queue to get tickets to watch Peterborough - fu**ing Sports beat us up with their collection of hard-faced mercenaries.

That said, for the first time in decades I feel I'm getting something from having a Season Ticket!  Queue starts behind me, peasants!

    1. Boy, PS fans bite and bite hard. Poor lambs. You get a sense they've never encountered any hint of mockery. Ever. Also, can't remember us going bust (got close plenty of times mind) as we are in the midst of celebrating our 150th birthday.

    2. A proper traditional club with genuine fans, who play in the borough of Kettering.

    1. Kettering don’t play in Kettering & are trying to cuckoo another teams ground. This essay makes out that they are a big club, they were playing at step 4 not so long ago. What an entitled bunch of cunts their fanbase is.

    2. Wow, dropping an unnecessary "C" bomb. Methinks the Sports doth protest too much.

  3. KTFC will be around years after pretend teams like PS have crashed back into obscurity. Like the Dim ones. Now there's a healthy dose of Schadenfreude for you!

  4. Another made up team who want to be our ‘rivals’.
    Fair play on what they’ve achieved so far, and that they’ll finish above us this year.
    But we’ve seen the highs and lows and the hardcore still turn out when the bubble bursts.
    Peterborough Sports will be past their peak in a few years, and we’ll still be kicking around, talking of that robbie cooke winner or craig norman’s penalty taking record….
    Harborough Town will be the next multi promotion team, at least we can get the train easy to there.
