Title: Promoted first team players dropping back down....... Post by: Richard4acre on Thursday, May 31, 2007, 14:32:41 Having had a good look through the Beeb sport website, peterbrough seem to be making lot of players just promoted from league 2 stay down in league two with Peterborough.
Examples this eason alone include.... Darren Keates - Walsall top scorer last season, and bloody captain! Chris Westwood - Main stay of the central defence for the Saddlers. Chris Welpdale - turned down Southend for Peterborough theyre now after Steve Elliot of Rovers too! So can anyone help me figure out what makes Peterborough so attractive? These players would rather play Morecambe away than Leeds & Forrest?!? All for the sake of what i can only see is a few extra £££ cant people see that Peterborough despite lashing out the dosh all the time cant seem to go anywhere!

So he's Fergie's son. Would Man Utd play Callum Best up front? Title: Promoted first team players dropping back down....... Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Thursday, May 31, 2007, 15:16:39 yup they will do well i think. wasted money in Jan on conference players and had they got better players they would have made the play-offs
Title: Promoted first team players dropping back down....... Post by: Dazzza on Thursday, May 31, 2007, 15:25:45 They've invested really well in the past 10 months in a lot of talented players from the league and conference. The only scepticism is the manager and bringing in to many players at once.
Think they’ll be in the shaker come the end of the season without a doubt. Title: Promoted first team players dropping back down....... Post by: Bob's Orange on Thursday, May 31, 2007, 15:41:38 My mate supports Peterborough and he thinks they will be in the Championship after back to back promotiions.
Darrah Mcantony is their chairman and his 'company' has sponsered them 3 million quid, they have lined up pre-season games against Liverpool, Celtic and Man U also which will bring in revenue as well. The guy is loaded and they are a club going forward. Title: Promoted first team players dropping back down.......

well i hope so anyway Title: Promoted first team players dropping back down....... Post by: Give us an S on Thursday, May 31, 2007, 16:20:10 Peterborough are now added to my list of teams I hope fail next year!

Title: Promoted first team players dropping back down....... Post by: reeves4england on Thursday, May 31, 2007, 17:30:15 It's all about the money. However, anybody who thinks Peterborough will find it easy to get to the Championship any time soon has another thing coming.
3 years at the very least I'd say. And that's if he doesn't walk off and take his money with him Title: Promoted first team players dropping back down....... Post by: Rich Pullen on Thursday, May 31, 2007, 20:04:24 I don't think the Elliott deal will happen... Darren Ferguson has announced this too early (Westwood and Keates had signed despite confusion) and maybe other teams will come in for him or god forbid he may be committed to the gasheads!

Title: Promoted first team players dropping back down....... Post by: stfc_steve on Friday, June 1, 2007, 12:06:00 Just recently I have taken over at Peterborough United Football club and I have to say the people there have been brilliant and very welcoming to myself and my family. I have great plans for this club and increasing its fan base along the way. It has been a great outlet from my normal day to day schedule and much needed to be honest.
only wnts to make money out of peterborough the rewards for him will be great if they get promoted, is he the main shareholder of a fringeline shareholder??
