Quakers aim to spoil Posh party

Darlington boss Dave Penney has urged his team not to be the bridesmaids when they face already-promoted Peterborough at London Road on Saturday.

The Quakers are guaranteed a place in the play-offs and Penney is determined to go into those games on a high.

"Peterborough will certainly have some kind of celebration at the game," he told BBC Tees.

"It will be a tough game at London Road and we don't want to go down there and be the whipping boys."

Penney faces a selection headache ahead of Saturday's game with Darren Ferguson's Posh side following yet another setback for Polish striker Pawel Abbott.

"The most we wanted to play Pawel Abbott against Dagenham was for 45 minutes to an hour, we certainly didn't have 15 minutes in the equation," he said.

"Julian Joachim is back next week, so we'll have to make some big decisions about who we send out at Peterborough."
