The terraces11 Oct 2027

Anger at Peterborough United spills outside the ground

It has stopped being a mood in the stands and started being something organised. Boards can ignore a bad atmosphere for a long time; they cannot ignore this stage of it for very long at all.

Market11 Oct 2027

Deian Verón asks to leave Peterborough United

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Market11 Oct 2027

Only the photograph left for Rafael Milhorim

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Rafael Milhorim will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Peterborough United the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad11 Oct 2027

A row about effort at Peterborough United

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Jonathan Panzo was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Squad11 Oct 2027

Tempers go at Peterborough United

Harry Leonard was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad11 Oct 2027

Ben Woods signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Ben Woods and Peterborough United agree another 3 years.

The dugout11 Oct 2027

No hiding place for Chris Conn-Clarke

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Chris Conn-Clarke, and the manager let it.

Squad11 Oct 2027

The formation has left Dmitry Barkov behind

Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Peterborough United will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

The dugout11 Oct 2027

A promise honoured for Tom Lees

It is not much of a headline and it is the reason players believe the next promise. Peterborough United told Tom Lees something would happen and then it happened, which in this industry passes for remarkable.

Deian Verón puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Peterborough United, and it is not being withdrawn.

Transfer targets9 Aug 2027

Josh Cullen turns down Peterborough United

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Burnley keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Squad9 Aug 2027

Words exchanged at Peterborough United

Néstor Caicedo and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad9 Aug 2027

Words at Peterborough United training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jonathan Panzo is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Transfer targets9 Aug 2027

Wrexham tell Peterborough United: Marcus Edwards is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

The dugout9 Aug 2027

James Dornelly gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad9 Aug 2027

Tom Lees signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Tom Lees and Peterborough United agree another 2 years.

Market9 Aug 2027

The shop window has Néstor Caicedo in it

Peterborough United have let the market know Néstor Caicedo can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.

The dugout9 Aug 2027

Cian Hayes knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Cian Hayes trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

The knee: Alex Bass out for 97 days

97 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Peterborough United lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Real improvement from Pemi Aderoju at Peterborough United

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Pemi Aderoju is 22, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Words exchanged at Peterborough United

Néstor Caicedo and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Alex Bass stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Alex Bass and Peterborough United agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Market12 Oct 2026

Carl Johnston is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Peterborough United has been clear about where Carl Johnston stands, which is more than many ever get.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

No hiding place for Sam Hughes

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Sam Hughes, and the manager let it.

Market12 Oct 2026

The Harry Leonard question follows Peterborough United around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Harry Leonard’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

Denis-Will Poha knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Denis-Will Poha trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

Tom Lees has been promised minutes

A conversation in the manager’s office, and a commitment that came out of it. Promises like that are cheap to make and expensive to break, and Tom Lees has written the date down.
