    Talking truly awful Posh sack McCann AGAIN and appoint Ferguson AGAIN. Think the legend (with some on here) McAnthony only knows two people.

    The Managers section of their Wikipedia page is quite amusing, until someone spots it.

    Has Ferguson now returned to Posh more times than McCall has returned to VP? ;)

    Ferguson is till the end of the season only.

    Sparks loves McAnthony. His little bud.

    It’s a joke.

    FA should be looking in to this.

    Pay off after pay off to the same people.

    Yet, the "truly awful Posh" are still light years ahead of us and have been for a decade or so.

    Makes you wonder how bad the mis management must be at our club if we're still trailing them by so far?

    Is interesting if they bother completing the pay out.

    They've described before on a podcast how 'paying off' a sacked manager works, I think it was after we sacked Adams. So the contract basically just carries on running, the manager still gets paid monthly as they did before and will until the end of the contract, or until they get a new job. Once the manager signs on for a new job, the 'pay off' ends. Darragh confirmed in his manager contracts they have clauses to not pay as much if the manager is struggling. He said Fergusons last time in L1 was if they sack him with the club outside the play offs, they only cover like 75/80% of the remaining deal, if they were in the bottom half it dropped to like half the contracts worth. Apparently those clauses are very common in the EFL.

    But given his sacked managers always sign back on with him, do they even bother paying off the remainder of the initial contract before signing the new one? Odd one.

    It's really lazy thinking the way that he keeps appointing these two. Bordering on Einstein's definition of madness.

    Basically, sacking them. Paying them their monthly wage the rehiring them if they haven't found a job in a period of time. Playing the system then?

    I would imagine the contract until end of the season coincides with when McAnthony intends leaving Posh.

    Wherever McAnthony ends up next, he is sure to employ Fergie!

    Cannot see McAnthony rocking up here. Rupp is here for the long haul in my opinion.
