Peterborough's young stars should stay to help end the Posh rot
By Stan Collymore

Peterborough are having a tough time of it in the Championship under boss Darren Ferguson.
Promoted Posh are in the relegation zone after just two wins from 15 games.
And I am sure their highly-rated quartet of Joe Lewis, Aaron McLean, Craig Mackail-Smith and George Boyd will be in demand in January.
But I hope they resist the temptation to leave as they are at a good club.
I know the club’s director of football Barry Fry well from my time at Southend under him.
And he will eventually know the right time to cash in on Posh’s young stars.
But whatever happens this season, if Peteborough continue to struggle, the lads should stay put for now.
