Peterborough United boss Grant McCann angered by 'disrespectful' Bali Mumba after Plymouth Argyle loss

Mumba joined Plymouth on loan from Norwich in the summer after spending the previous the final part of last season on loan at Posh.

Mumba put in an impressive performance on Saturday, tormenting the Posh defence before winning his side a penalty to seal a 2-0 win.

He was brought off with seven minutes remaining by Steven Schumacher and Grant McCann took exception to the way he left the pitch, accusing him of trying to rile the Posh fans. Plymouth fans were singing his name as he was withdrawn.

McCann said: “He’s had a good performance today; the boy’s a good footballer but I thought he was a bit disrespectful coming off the pitch though; trying to rile the fans and I told him that at the end.

“He’s played well today and so have Plymouth, but we didn’t have anything about us to even have a go at them today.”

Mumba did not have a successful spell with Posh in the Championship and found his opportunities limited after scoring on his debut against Bristol Rovers in the FA Cup.

He started the first five Championship games after he arrived but ended his loan spell with seven league starts and came off the bench in a further three. He did not appear in any of the club’s final game eight games and McCann terminated Mumba’s loan early after Posh’s relegation was confirmed.
