Posh use us to drum up some interest in Maddison, we/Southall use Posh to make us sound ambitious. Posh chairman also said in January that Southall had been enquiring about Ivan Toney and he'd told him where to go or, to put it another way, he told any potential suitors that they'd have to pay big and gave Southall some positive PR for implying that we might be interested in signing Toney, even though we weren't allowed to.

We didn't have his inflated wages plus we saved a substantial transfer payment. As MacAnthony explained regarding the deal with Hul “It was one way of us getting some money. It wasn’t the £1.5m, going up to £2m, we’d agreed with Charlton but I managed to save something."
But then we couldn't buy anyone because of the embargo. Which brings me back to the conspiracy theory thought up between Southall and his mate.0 - Sponsored links:

Got a lot of time for the Peterborough chairman, very impressed with his comments in the interview about Maddison.
I think he was genuinely impressed with Southhall who probably spun him a story of Charlton funded to the tune of hundreds of millions of pounds and about to become the Man. City of the South.
Has since realised it was all nonsense.

At least he didn't bill us for consultancy fees or maybe he did?1

how would we have signed this guy with a transfer ban and Matt Super Dooper phone Southall bleeding us dry ? was he trying to off load 6 Super Dooper Range Rovers in part exchange?
Maybe he was offering a"consultancy" in exchange.
Mind you paying invoices and bills disnt seem to be part of any plan hr had or has had.0 -

Southhall told L.B. although a transfer embargo had been put on Charlton by the E.F.L. it would be cleared the next day.
If you give Southhall the benefit of doubt, he may have believed it.
If you believe he was just a crook, then it was all bullshit.1 -

I really like Darragh, but he's coming across as a complete cock on twitter at the minute, and that's coming from someone who wants football back asap1

Had one of their fans wound me up on twitter after the game at the Valley last season who claimed we didnt deserve a result after having just one shot that game, despite their penalty being a joke
Really did please me how their season nose dived and we ended up as the promoted team4 -

He’s usually very good, honest and an open communicator.
However, at the moment he’s sounding like an entitled and self centred brat. The reason for his opinions, I believe, is because he had a lot riding on the hope of gaining promotion this season. Financially they need it. They also will lose Toney at some point soon, and it won’t be for anything like the amount they could’ve got without this pandemic. Clubs are going to need money, and players will still want to move on, it means the transfer market value will drop dramatically, that’s my prediction. He probably feels this is the best chance of promotion they’ve had for a while, and it is going to be taken away from them.6 -

He seems to have ambition though, having said that he's never been my cup of tea after appearing on the Sky transfer news programme.

Their model has always made me smile - i.e. they put such focus on signing decent attacking players with a decent sell on yet ignore their defence
This is the second season on the trot where they've got the worst goals conceded (along with Wycombe this year) in the top seven
Maybe if they focused on all areas a bit more they'd actually stand a proper chance of returning to the Championship
