It played in League One for the 2008-09 season having finished second in League Two in the 2007-08 season. The club was formed in 1934 and played in the old Midland League, which it won six times. The club was admitted to the Football League in 1960, replacing Gateshead F.C. It plays at London Road, Peterborough. The club nickname is The Posh. Among Peterborough United's local rivals are Northampton Town F.C. and Cambridge United F.C.. Peterborough's greatest player is Terry Bly. He scored 52 goals in the first season as a Football League club, as it sealed the Fourth Division championship. Many fans would say Blys' striker partner Denis Emery was the better all-round player. The club also produced successful young players, including Simon Davies (now at Fulham), Matthew Etherington (now at West Ham United) and Adam Drury (now at Norwich City). During the 2005-06 season the club had three managers: team owner Barry Fry returned to management following former England international Mark Wright's sacking in January. Wright's assistant Steve Bleasdale was then appointed acting manager, but resigned in April. Keith Alexander joined as manager from Lincoln City for 2006-07 . On September 18, 2006 Peterborough United announced the "biggest signing in the club's history", new chairman Darragh MacAnthony chairman of MRI Overseas Property. MacAnthony has bought 200 shares in PUFC and said his goal is to become the sole owner. In its AGM of 05/09/2006 Posh Supporters' Trust said it owned 1390 shares. The deal was delayed in November 2006 when the owner of the ground, Peterborough United Holdings (PUHL), refused the sale until it had planning permission for development of the Moyes End terrace and building of 135 flats. Despite A £1m bid for striker Izale McLeod was rejected by his club, MK Dons. They have since signed George Boyd from Stevenage for a reported £260,000 [1] , Aaron McLean from Grays Athletic for around £150,000 [2] and Josh Low from Leicester for a fee rising to £100,000 [3]. It has also signed 32-year-old central midfielder Micah Hyde for £75,000 (rising to £100,000 if Peterborough get promotion) from Burnley; and goalkeeper Shwan Jalal from Woking for an undisclosed fee. While Alexander had some success, leading the club to its best start to a season and keeping in the play-off positions for most of the 2006-07 season, he was sacked in January due to six defeats in a row, and his long-ball tactics met with disapproval among fans even when the club was near the top of the table. After a caretaker spell by Tommy Taylor, Darren Ferguson was installed as player-manager. Ferguson had a good start to his career, and was unlucky to only gain 1 point from his first 3 games after some good performances. The first win was against his former club, Wrexham. Ferguson appointed Kevin Russell as assistant and Ben MacKenzie as fitness coach. Darragh MacAnthony has proposed a 15,000 all-seater stadium to replace the London Road, which has a capacity of 15,314, [3] On 19 April 2008, Peterborough were promoted to the Coca-Cola Football League One after Dean Keates header secured a 1-0 victory against Hereford United.

Currently 2nd bottom in league 1 with 3 defeats in 3. In my defence I did play Leeds, Scunthorpe and MK Dons. Leeds and Scunthorpe I lost 2-1 with both getting a pen. I lost the MK game 1-0 after having 6 shots on goal 6 shots off target and then capitulating and letting them score in the 90th min. Oh my parent club is spurs.

MJinks Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 I've started a new game as manager of Posh (9.3.0). I bought Andy Liddell from Oldham for 30k to fill in at AMR. He throws in some beautiful crosses. Also, I bought Paul Boertien from Walsall for 90k to fit in at DL. More importantly I managed to hold on to Boyd. I have them set up in an aggressive 4-2-3-1 formation, playing down the flanks. They've only played 4 games in League One so far but they're 1st with 10 points. The most impressive results so far were beating Cardiff 3-2 away in the League Cup 2nd round and beating local rivals Northampton 4-1 away in the League (100% match confidence!). A good team but not a lot of cover if I pick up injuries. Aiming for promotion. ST-Mackail-Smith AML-Boyd, AMC-Torres, AMR-Liddell MC-Coutts, MC-Lee DL-Boertien, DC-Zakuani, DC-Morgan, DR-Martin GL-Lewis McLean is sitting on the bench for now. He can come on for Mackail-Smith or Liddell. Someone asked how Mackail-Smith is doing. It's early days but so far: 7 goals in 7 (competitive) games, 2 assists, average rating of 7.71.

gio Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Just about to start a game with the mighty Posh! Some of my family are originally from near Peterborough, so I count them as my English team. Hoping to follow Fergie's lead and take them to the Championship at the first attempt (let's hope I'm not tempting fate). The thing that annoys me most about lower league management is that good staff are hard to come by, not only because of the attraction of working for a small club, but also because of the money it costs. I'll probably just play 442, utilising the brilliance of Boyd, the magic of Mackail-Smith, and the acceleartion of Aaron McLean... Probably in need of a partner for Charlie Lee in the middle, though I've always been a bit of a fan of Dean Keates so he'll probably get the nod for the time being. I predicted a mid-table finish (conservative, but I didn't want to risk the sack so early on) which gives me a budget of 100k. I'll be looking to put it to great use in signing mainly Championship quality players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaaaws Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Is it just on my game or is Charlie Lee scoring some amazing screamers on a regular basis?

Jamesdude55 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 This should be the OP!!!! Peterborough United Football Club is an English professional football team based in Peterborough. They play in League One for the 2008-09 season having finished second in League Two in the 2007-08 season. The club was formed in 1934 and played in the old Midland League, which they won six times; eventually being admitted to the Football League in 1960, replacing Gateshead F.C. The ground is London Road, Peterborough. The club nickname is The Posh. Among Peterborough United's local rivals are Northampton Town and Cambridge United. Peterborough's most notable player is Terry Bly. Bly scored 52 goals in season 1960-61, their first as a Football League club, helping them secure the Fourth Division championship. Some fans of the club in that era dispute this fact holding the opinion that Bly's striker partner, Denis Emery, was the better all-round player. History Peterborough United was formed in 1934 at Peterborough's Angel Hotel to provide a replacement for Peterborough and Fletton United, folded two years previously.[1] The Posh played in the old Midland League. They won this league on six occasions, including five seasons in a row from 1956 to 1960. Following the 1960-61 Fourth Division Championship success, 'The Posh' spent seven seasons in the 3rd Division before being relegated for financial irregularities in the summer of 1968. The club took six seasons to return to division 3, winning the 4th Division championship for the second time under the management of Noel Cantwell and their star mid-field player John Cozens. In 1977-78 the club threatened to go one better until they narrowly missed out on promotion to Division 2 when they drew the last game of the season at champions Wrexham when a win was needed to go up. The Wrexham defeat cast a long shadow over the club and it fell into a long decline. Relegation followed in 1979 and Posh subsequently spent 12 years back in the 4th division. The 1980's was a long story of mismanagement and false dawns, punctuated by the odd cup run. In January 1991, Chris Turner, who had played in the 1974 Fourth division championship team took over as manager and the team embarked on a run of 13 unbeaten games that propelled them into the top four. Six players were signed on transfer deadline day, which at the time was a record for the number of players signed by one club on a single day. On the final day of the season, Posh travelled to Chesterfield needing a win to seal promotion. Despite going two goals down in the first ten minutes, the team rallied and drew level with goals from David Robinson and George Berry. Fortunately Posh's closest rivals, Blackpool lost at Walsall and promotion was achieved. The following season arguably remains the most successful in the clubs history. After an inconsistent start the team hit form during the Autumn when they knocked Wimbledon and Newcastle out of the League Cup. The reward was a home tie with a Liverpool team containing Bruce Grobbelaar, Jan Molby, Steve Mcmanaman, Dean Saunders and Mark Wright. Gary Kimble scored the only goal after 19 minutes prompting wild celebrations and a place in the quarter finals. In the league, the team went from strength to strength and surged up the table. Middlesbrough ended the League Cup run after a replay and there was further disappointment when the team missed out on a trip to Wembley in the Auto Windscreens Shield when they lost to Stoke over two legs in the area final. The hard working team continued to progress in the league and a play-off place was clinched on the last day of the season despite a 1-0 defeat to champions Brentford. The following week, Huddersfield Town came to London Road for the first leg of the Semi Final. Captain Mick Halsall's last minute equaliser levelled the score at 2-2. Three days later, the supporters travelled north more in hope than expectation but they were rewarded when the team came from a goal down to win 2-1 with Worrell Sterling and Steve Cooper scoring the goals. On 24th May 1992, Peterborough United played at Wembley for the first time, against Stockport County. Leading scorer Ken Charlery scored both goals in another 2-1 win, taking his tally to 26 for the season. Posh's second goal came in injury time, barely a minute after conceding an equaliser. The Posh was elected to The Football League for the beginning of the 1960–61 season, winning Division Four. It played in Football League Division One between 1992 and 1994 and finished 10th, their highest ever league finish, in 1992-93 season. The nickname Posh was given to them when a football pundit decided they look Posh. They were first nicknamed the brickies.

jaaaws Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Just achieved promotion to the Championship in my first season. Finished in 2nd place behind leeds after having a thrilling final game at London Road against Southend. Before the last game we were 2nd with 91 pts., Southend were 3rd with 90 Pts. The game started with a shocking moment seeing Henri Lansbury getting sent off after 10 minutes for a terrible tackle on Southend's Christophe. But Lee gave us the lead in the 35th minute with a real belter from 30 yards out. Only four minutes later George Boyd was given a lot of space by the Shrimpers defense and placed a good shot in the upper right corner. Despite being one man down we were the better team for the whole 90 minutes and deserved the win. Now I'm really looking forward to our Championship campaign. I wonder what transfer budget I'll get and which players I will sign. The team played really well as a whole but if I had to point out some key players it would be: Zakuani (rock solid at the back, good enough for Championship i reckon), George Boyd (lots of good passes and crosses, always dangerous in front of the goal), Charlie Lee (the link between our defense and midfield, always dangerous with his long shots, he scored about 9 goals in the season) and Mackail-Smith (who struggled at the beginning but has been a real relevation in the 2nd half of the season, scored 6 in the last 6 games). McLean should be added as well, a consistent performer throughout the whole season and top scorer with 20 goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gio Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I'm struggling with Posh, currently sitting 7th. I've been so inconsistent - at one point I was comfortably sitting in 3rd, now I'm 2 pts off the playoffs. I've not made any signings of note, apart from Barray Bannan and an Andorran RB called Ayala. What formation and style would you recommend? Any signings that'll help me escape League 1? A 1-0 loss away to bloody MK Dons, and that's my promotion challenge all but over. Absolutely gutted, considering that after tonight's Millwall result, we're certainly up in reality! (I'm obviously not gutted about that)... My case has not been helped by the horrendous injuries suffered to McLean and Mackail-Smith in particular. They only seem to be able to play 2 games together before breaking down and getting injured for 3 or 4 weeks. Very inufriating. Oh well, got to make sure I win the league next season!

gio Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Just finished my second season, finishing top of League 1. Anyone know if MacAnthony ploughs the money in when you get to the Championship? My squad is ok, but it needs some strengthening for the step up. Some players that have been brilliant for me: Skolnik, a left sided midfielder from Croatia - retrained to play in central Midfield Angel - a pacey striker from Tenerife, cost me £10k, he's now worth over £1m! Scored three hat tricks this season, including ones against recently relegated Norwich and Southampton Miguel Rubosio - a 32yr old centre half, available for free. Him and Zakuani were brilliant for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gio Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 I'll continue this one man show for the time being... Started the Championship season with a squad enhanced by a few bosman signings. In come Polish defender Marcin Wasilewski from Norwich, Rudi Skacel from Southampton, Tininho (a Portugese full back) and Lucas Trecarichi for a bargain price of just £45k from Sevilla. George Boyd and Joe Lewis, both of whom were unhappy following constant press attention, won moves to Hibs and Man Utd respectively. Boyd never really performed, while Joe seemed to have difficulty motivating himself for me so he had to go. I'm not sure if the squad is good enough to stay up, but I'll certainly give it my best shot. Things have helped with a flukey 1-0 win at Molineux, thanks to a Zakuani header from a corner. Aim is to stay up this year, and go for promotion next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIW123 Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Just started a game 9.0.3. 75k to spend, loan signings are the way forward sticking in bids for Randall, Merida and Gibbs. Signing Rebosio on a free at the end of December which looks a real coup. I'll let you know how I get on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomtuck01 Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 RIW123 If you need a striker on loan then take a look at Jamie Ward of Sheffield United. I've got him on mine and he has bagged 9 goals in 8 games so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ianavfc Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 In my seventh season as posh, Mid table first season, play off heart ache second season losing to stupidly good Derby county side. League champions then a play off win first season in championship. A 16th placed finish and a 12th place finish in prem. I have stupid amounts of money now and no original players sold them all, getting some silly money for Charlie Lee(4m to ipswich) Joe Lewis (4.5m to Fulham) both when i was in championship, and replaced with bosmans and loads of players from Scotland!! Hamilton Ac. have a good crop of kids. Liam Dickinson is a beast in League 1 had him on loan for three seasons then brought him for 2k!! scored 127 goals for me in 5 season before he was out his depth in the prem!! Still no sign of a new stadium and no way of expanding. also no players better then what i have are interested in joining me now. Do you think mid table prem is all that can be achieved??
