Darragh confirms he's leaving Peterborough this summer

Having said all this, if we were suddenly up for sale I'd take someone like Darragh who understands football than another non entity that takes six years to get his house in order.

 

Come on, are we seriously comparing the potential of Posh to that of Bradford City?
He got them to the Championship and still the crowds didn’t come. The fanbase simply isn’t there.
It’s like comparing Mansfield to Notts Forest.
With the right backing we’d have a very good chance of being a stable Championship club with full houses every week

 

I suspect some or all of that are the real reasons for his sudden sale. Will be interesting to see what happens, perhaps a bid for Barry Fry's services would be a good move.

 

I don't see anywhere in the post that compares Peterborough's potential at all. WW is simply saying DMac has reached the glass ceiling and finally realised it.

 

Evans had an affectionate passion for the club when he was job chasing. End of.

 

That you are right….It’s a sparsely populated area, massive, but many more pigs than people

 

Yes but the Championship was the ceiling for Posh. They couldn’t have gone any higher with them

 

Bournemouth ? They did it. Huddersfield did it. Swindon did it. All similar size clubs to Peterborough

 

I would rate our terrier friends and Swindon with far more potential than Posh will ever have

 

You need to go back and have a look how much money Bournemouth actually spent to reach the PL.

Their wages were astronomical and even spent £600,000 on Matt Ritchie 10 years ago in league one!

 

I’ll agree I don’t know how Bournemouth have achieved it. Every dog can have its day in the sun but I didn’t expect them to go back up once they got relegated.
Swindon though? That was 25 years ago.
Huddersfield were lucky to see the PL and even luckier to stay up but now they’re down they’ll go the way we did, to the basement where dogs live

 

Bournemouth have a billionaire Russian owner. You can run a tight ship and have success relative to that but eventually money makes the difference. The more of it the more of a difference you'll eventually make.

 

The catchment areas are smaller than Peterborough, but the populations are far lower in the surrounding districts USG?

Go outside the small conurbation of Peterborough there is nothing but fields as far as the eye can see.

 

The Bournemouth post code has almost 500k population including Poole which is like a suburb of Bournemouth. Poole has a population of 150k. The Bournemouth Poole Christchurch area is really densely populated and mostly within a20 min drive. I spend a lot of time down there these days and was really surprised. The fact is, even with the success they've had they haven't grown much as a club although a small ground doesn't help. You don't see many Bournemouth shirts down there either.

 

Yes been several times , compared to Peterborough, it’s like London.

 

Mate I am more worried about platt and Timmy time being sold. They are both reeeet players. If they keep progressing. Cook would fetch 350 k

 

Why hasn't he been forced out like abramhovic

 

He's a UK citizen
