‘Greatest game I’ve ever seen at London Road’
Posh fans were thrilled by the result and the performance as Sheffield Wednesday were blown away 4-0 in a play-off final first leg.
Some suggested they’d never seen a better display or experienced such a great atmosphere, although there was also the odd sensible word of caution from some Posh fans.
Here are a selection of comments made to @PTAlanSwann on Twitter…
One of the best ever performances.

I’ve been supporting Posh for 43 years now and I can’t remember such a dominant, complete performance particularly in such a big, high profile game. Even have the luxury of resting some legs for Wembley now on Thursday night. @derren_cooper
Greatest night at London Road, eclipsed the MK game in 2011 for me. Outstanding! @AshleyCaress
4-0 up at half time. It ain’t over yet
@craigDlyons
Fergie got the tactics spot on and his biggest move since returning is to push Taylor forward and leave Norburn as a defensive midfielder. Whole team superb. @nonecksomesense
Never dreamt we'd be chanting 'we want 5!'
@Nige1Chapman
What a team effort! From the save from Norris to the last goal. Immense defending to keep the clean sheet. Always looked dangerous on the attack. London Road was rocking.

Best night since MK game. Norburn has made such a difference since he has been in the side. @BrianSwann1
Greatest game I’ve ever seen at London Road. Love this team and manager. @emmaverde9
Greatest night ever under the lights, but only half time! Need to turn their fans against them early doors rather than letting them lift their side.

Fergieball at its best. Unbelievable performance. @martyntiney1
Greatest night we have had under the lights in many years. @theposhfan
One of the best nights at London Road for a generation. @mattmecham
We played like the play offs were just a bonus, but they played like it was a burden. @romysdad
Unbelievable evening, never in our wildest dreams did we see that coming. @PoshLawts
Can’t believe what I witnessed. What a night. @clarkbatfan
Can I ask, where are the ‘Fergie out’ people? Build that statue now! @AzThornhill
Best Posh performance in my lifetime.
