Peterborough announce Robertson as new manager

David Robertson has been appointed as permanent first-team manager at Peterborough United after taking interim charge back in February.

Robertson, who will be assisted by Grant McCann, succeeded Darren Ferguson three months ago, and led the club to a ninth-placed finish in League One at the end of the season.

“I am delighted to finally announce that David Robertson is our new first-team manager with Grant McCann joining him as assistant manager,” said chairman Darragh MacAnthony.

“They have both signed three-year deals which I have no doubt will lead to three of the most successful years since I have become chairman of the football club.”
