Peterborough United - always ready to help.

The news has reached us that the club has taken a couple of Posh lads on loan to cover the numerous other loan players we have at Rockingham Road.  Records show that, with these two loanees, Peterborough can now boast of having at least one player on loan at every club in English professional and semi-professional football. 

This envious record seems to have come about through Posh hoovering up almost any player within a hundred mile radius who shows even a glimmer of footballing ability (and Lee Tomlin), and immediately putting them on contracts for life.  Rene Howe, for example, is now in his fourth season at London Road, and has never even seen the place!  However, he has been loaned out to 27 clubs during his Peterborough career. 

In many ways, playing for Peterborough is akin to being a mobster.  Once you sign up, you are never really allowed to leave.  Lil Fuccillo and Robbie Cooke still have squad numbers just in case Posh have a run of injuries, or the 500 players ahead of them are all struck down with the plague.

Lil and Robbie are ready to heed the call
