MacAnthory 'promises' to sell Posh if not in top 10

MacAnthony pledges to sell his 75% stake if Posh fail to reach League One's top 10 by February, taking responsibility after a poor start under new manager Robbie Savage.

Peterborough United chairman Darragh MacAnthory has promised to sell his 75% stake in the club if they are not in the League One top 10 by February. The statement came on social media following a 2-0 Carabao Cup defeat at Bradford City, with MacAnthory saying he takes full responsibility for the squads built during his 20 years in charge. He expressed confidence in the current squad under new manager Robbie Savage, appointed this month after Luke Williams was sacked in September, but committed to honesty with supporters. Savage has won two of his first four games in charge. Peterborough currently sit 21st in League One, one point from safety after 12 matches, and face Luton Town at home on Saturday.
