Jack Payne has signed a 4 year deal with Posh - that has to be very good news indeed "Darragh MacAnthony ‏@DMAC102 23m Some good news non striker related: Please to announce Jack Payne has signed a 4 yr deal with us. Quality acquisition Poshies!"
I haven't heard anything about him yet, other than the fact Posh had agreed deals with 2 other clubs and Sinclair rejected both deals - clearly an issue with wages.
Found a previous media report on Sinclair...http://www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk/...osh-are-part-of-a-pack-after-marlon-1-5207499
No swap involved: Darragh MacAnthony ‏@DMAC102 11m @Bucks_Gill Nope pal. We bought Jack outright. No swaps involved. Sorry
I don't know the precise figures, but with an average home attendance of around 9,000 in the Championship (7,500 in League 1) we have a very small wage budget in comparison to other Championship clubs. It is purely an educated guess but I think the average wage at Posh is around the 3-4k mark, we had players like Boyd and McCann on much more than that but most of the younger players (especially the ones coming up from the youth team) would be on 1-2k per week.
No offence meant here, but I am just wondering how a 'middle aged' player in League 1, can think he should be better paid. Surely if he was worth more, then he would have been taken on by a bigger club. If someone offered me 200 a week let alone 2k, I'd snap their bloody hands off
More good news from Posh - Grant McCann has signed a new 2 year deal, combining playing with coaching the under 15 team before moving into coaching/management full time.
Had just read that on the Posh website ..... Think that is a great move for us Really delighted .... hope he can teach his dead ball skills !
Who will be the next signing? When asked on twitter this morning if there would be any more signings Darragh replied "Yes"
