Cooper: Posh boosted by escape to sun

Cooper and his players flew out for some sunshine after the snowy conditions in Cambridgeshire disrupted training and the former Kettering manager is confident of success at the weekend. He said: "It's been a tremendous break for the lads. They have worked hard, but it's also been a good opportunity for the new players to bond with the existing squad. "Training had pretty much been a waste of time at home so the trip has been a massive boost for us all. We are certainly raring to go on Saturday."
