Will Posh fans welcome Robbie Savage as boss?
Peterborough Utd fans are undecided on whether the former Wales international is right for the job.
Peterborough United supporters are divided on whether proposed manager Robbie Savage would be a suitable fit for the League One side. The former Wales international has been linked with the job at Peterborough, who sacked previous manager Luke Williams at the end of September amid a poor start to the season.
Forest Green Rovers, Savage's current club, confirmed that the club had offered him the job as manager of Peterborough United. However, the League One side has yet to officially confirm the appointment.
Stuart Killingray, a fan, said Savage's status as a celebrity felt like an odd choice at first but that his experience as a player could be useful. He added that it would be a mixed bag, with hope springs eternal.
Henry Currie, another supporter, said that Savage would not be his first choice of manager for Peterborough. He suggested Savage's move from the National League to League One would be a big step up and that the club would need to bring in more experienced players to stabilize the squad.
Mark Clifton, a supporter, said he enjoyed watching Savage play as a midfielder and expected there to be clashes between the prospective manager and the club's chairman Darragh MacAnthony. If they can resolve those issues, Clifton added that Savage could potentially bring a change to the team.
