After an excellent October, everyone connected with Posh thought they`d turned the corner and were on the up. How wrong they were as Posh suffered a miserable November losing five matches and drawing one!
During October, Posh moved off the bottom of the Championship and finished the month out of the relegation places. Unfortunately, the opposite happened in November with Posh finishing the month rock bottom again and four points from safety again!
November also saw off-field problems which saw four players initially suspended pending investigations into a late night incident which ended with two players being arrested! Those two players have since left Posh on loans and have been told they will never play for Posh again while the other two players were innocent although one of them remains on the transfer list for “footballing reasons”!
