The club’s fortunes have turned noticeably recently.

Darragh MacAnthony’s move from limited oversight to more monitoring at Peterborough United mirrored the club’s upturn under manager Ron Rowett.

Previously, the team had slipped with poor form during periods of reduced involvement from MacAnthony.

Separate plans are in progress to honour former player Tommy Robson, who initiated fundraising for the club’s community projects, by erecting a bronze statue in his name.

Earlier, Peterborough sought to sign an unnamed experienced international midfielder but were rejected, highlighting squad weaknesses in a competitive league.

Supporters anticipate the greater ownership focus will maintain progress.
