Peterborough United fans believe promotion is in the bag now Sammie Szmodics is back, one even wrote a poem in his honour, but is Fergie now under serious pressure to deliver?
One even felt inspired enough to write a short poem!
All comments as told to @PTAlanSwann on Twitter.
We’ve been looking for an attacking player,
One who excites with flicks and tricks;
Like a milkman the president’s delivered
The cream of the crop - Sam Szmodics.
@TobyWoody
Very happy as I’ve said all along if we get Szmodics in, on top of what we already had, we will be champions. Bet now placed.
@lowestoftposh
Fantastic. Now we need to be top of the pile all season.
@Andyjimmyfisher
Awesome! Promotion in the bag.
@mothy2401
Posh have done well this summer to reinvest the Toney money and get the quality in under the salary cap. As an Ipswich fan, I’m not looking forward to our games v Posh (again).

Hide AdYou certainly can’t fault the ambition and desire from the owners. We now have a £3.5 million forward line, in league One! To justify that surely we need to be doing a Liverpool this season.
@steverodz
Hats off to Darragh and his co-owners who, even in uncertain economic times, have once again backed the manager in the transfer market. Losing Ivan Toney is a big blow, but I think Posh have a squad good enough for promotion. Now it’s over to Darren Ferguson to deliver.
@poshfanupnorth
Best squad on paper since we were relegated from the Championship, over to you Fergie.
@footydaz
Fantastic business and effort made by Darragh. This is a cherry on the cake signing to complete this squad. Pressure is now on Fergie to make sure they deliver on the expectation.

Hide AdAbsolutely buzzing, incredible signing on a 4 year deal shows real intent.
@Oliverharniess
Fantastic news that he’s back. I had my doubts when Portsmouth became interested. even more desperate to get back into the stadium now.
@poshcricketer
Never been so sure in 20 years of watching us that this is a top 2 squad. Down to Fergie now.
@poshforever2
Whether we go up or not, we’ll definitely be up there competing, that’s a very strong signing.
@DannyBoyMiller
Brilliant backing from the owners again! Now down to Ferguson to deliver our first league title since 1974.
@davidwh1971
Posh made my day. Great signing, really shows the club ambitions.
