Peterborough   1 - 1   Crystal Palace

Peterborough are still looking for their first win in the Championship this season after a draw with 10-man Crystal Palace at London Road.

Winger Shaun Batt gave the hosts the lead on 53 minutes, but Alan Lee bundled in an equaliser for Neil Warnock's side 11 minutes later.

Palace defender Paddy McCarthy was sent off with 16 minutes remaining for a second bookable offence.

Posh now have only two points from five league games this season.


Peterborough manager Darren Ferguson:
"It was a missed opportunity to get our first win and it's two points dropped.

"We've never gone three games without winning since I've been here so it's something new to handle now it's five.

"Everyone will be shouting and screaming about our start but I have enquired about two or three players this week who were all on over £10,000 a week and we can't compete with that."

Crystal Palace manager Neil Warnock:
"Taking the 90 minutes into consideration I was delighted with the point.

"Even with 10 men we tried to push men forward but it's a decent result.

"Alan [Lee] had to work hard up there and he always has a chance if he puts in a shift like that."
