The PT decided to put bold statement to the test by checking out the other goalkeepers who have arrived at the Weston Homes Stadium since MacAnthony took control of Posh in September 2006.
MacAnthony inherited Mark Tyler. The goalkeepers who were signed permanently or on loan are listed here, in reverse order based on their impact/performance levels at Posh.
The list does not include goalkeepers who graduated through the Posh youth team like Will Blackmore. We also haven’t included current goalkeepers Bass, Vicente Reyes and Bastian Smith.

25. JED STEER - Signed January 2024
A calming presence in a young side. Started two EFL Trophy Final wins at Wembley with Posh and was the number one in the second-half of the season in that dashingly entertaining side of 2023-24. Made 50 Posh appearances. Now without a club, but busy with media work. Photo: David Lowndes
26. JOSEF BURSIK - Signed April 2021
Only played six times for Posh, but it was six of the last seven games of the last League One promotion-winning campaign. He was signed on an emergency loan from Stoke City and was good from the start. Now at Portsmouth. Photo: Joe Dent
27. JOE LEWIS - SIgned January 2008.
MacAnthony splashed out £400k to bring Lewis to Posh from Norwich City which was a club record for a goalkeeper. Lewis had his critics, but he was part of three Posh promotion winning sides while racking up 190 appearances. Photo: PT
