Peterborough chairman slams "certain Championship club" for failure to make "large payment"

Peterborough chairman Darragh MacAnthony tweets to say that an "unnamed Championship club" have failed to pay an add-on from a previous transfer.

Peterborough chairman Darragh MacAnthony has vented his frustration at an unnamed Championship club for their failure to make "an agreed large payment".

MacAnthony suggested that the club in question were due to make a payment to Posh last week, but the funds did not arrive with the League One outfit.

The Posh chairman tweeted to say that they will not be making any signings in the final few hours of the January transfer window, but reiterated that it was through no fault of his own.

He said: "The real reason is due to a certain Championship club failing to make an agreed large payment (not thousands by the way) last week on a player they bought from us.

"This same club did this to us in August and now again. Truthfully it's a disgrace & their chairman is the same.

"It has put us last minute in a terrible predicament which I shall now fix and once the loan window opens, we shall bring in a couple of players to help the squad.

"It's also a shambles that the Football League allow this nonsense to carry on and not for the first time. I'm also sure we are not only club who it has happened to, but the knock on effect is outrageous and doesn't help a club like Peterborough that's for sure!"

MacAnthony publicly condemned Nottingham Forest two years ago for their handling of a potential move for George Boyd.
