Ferguson spurned a pay-off to make way for the new man and a quick appointment is expected as Posh have a tough Championship match at leaders Fulham on Wednesday (February 23). The PT has compiled its own 10-man shortlist of old favourites, experienced bosses and emerging managerial prospects.
We’re talking permanent appointments here, although Posh could go for an interim manager until the end of the season.

FOR: He's done well at Wycombe against some much bigger and better League One clubs. AGAINST: Why hasn't a bigger and better club taken him away from Buckinghamshire yet? Could it be his tactical approach? Wycombe games don't ever finish before 5pm.
