Peterborough United will not be appointing a new manager in time for the daunting trip to Championship leaders Fulham tomorrow
Matthew Etherington, who had been working as Darren Ferguson’s assistant until the manager quit at the weekend, will take charge of the team alongside current under 23 coach Simon Davies.
Simon Davies is a former Fulham player who joined Fulham in January 2007 from Everton. He went on to play 153 times scoring 17 goals before being released in 2013. Two of his goals were in Fulham's historic run in the 2010 Europa League including Fulham's only goal in the final.
The recruitment of a new Peterborough United manager has started and it’s understood Posh hope to confirm an appointment before Saturday’s Championship home fixture with Hull City (February 26).
Posh have won just one of their last 17 Championship matches.
