The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

leaves Posh by mutual consent. Shocking decision but I can only presume it's due to Posh selling their best players. I wonder if Tomlins speculation has had anything to do with it ;)

However this could possibly put Justin in the spotlight again.

Confirmed on 5 Live tonight just now.

I really can't see JE ending up at the Posh as they gambled with Mark Cooper last season and look how that finished up.

Mark Cooper was non-League mindset though, I can see JE suiting more as he goes higher!

Would they want the manager of a struggling non-league side though?

Exactly. We are hardly setting the world alight, there are plenty of other managers that posh could take a chance on before JE, Dean Holdswoth at Newport for example. If JE ends up there I'll wear a K*ttering shirt at home games for the rest of the season!!

I think that it's getting to the stage when that Chairman of Posh will struggle to get a decent manager who's willing to work for him. :?

I think the fact that they went for a non-league manager last time means they'll probably seek someone more experienced in the FL this time, especially with how badly that turned out.

Gary Johnson has been managing league sides for many years now.

He means Cooper, so the one before the last one.
