VitalWatford cast an eye over Fergie Jnr. and co. down at London Road…
Gaffer: Sir Alex Ferguson Jnr, sorry – Darren.
Now in his second spell at London Road after a dreadful stint in charge of Preston North End which eventually saw the Lilywhites relegated miserably.
Position 10/11: 4th in League One.
In:Scott Wooten, Ryan Tunnicliffe (Both Manchester United, season-long loan), Nicky Ajose (Manchester United, (300k), Craig Alcock (Yeovil Town, undisc.), Paul Jones (Exeter City, undsic.) and Joe Day (Rushden & Diamonds, undisc.).
Out: Seth Nana Ofori Twumasi, Aaron Davies, Dominic Green, Rene Howe (All Released), Craig Mackail-Smith (Brighton & H.A, £2.5m), Charlie Lee (Gillingham, undisc.) and Chris Whelpdale (Gillingham, undisc.).
Star Man: Winger-cum-striker George Boyd is the last of the Posh’s holy trinity left at London Road.
Despite a loan spell with Nottingham Forest the last time the Blues were in the Championship, they will lean on his ability heavily in order to stay up this season.
Best Business: The continued relationship between Manchester United and Manchester United reserves that has seen three kids join Peterborough this summer.
Prediction: Relegation candidates. It’s a young, thin squad on paper and with few Championship-experienced players I predict a third straight relegation shoot-out for Fergie Jnr.
