Robbie Savage has been named the new manager of Peterborough United, marking his most significant managerial appointment to date. The 51-year-old former Wales international joins the League One club, known as Posh, after leaving his position at National League side Forest Green Rovers.
Savage led Forest Green to a seventh-place finish in the National League last season, though they were defeated in the play-off eliminators. His previous managerial experience also includes a spell at Macclesfield FC.
He takes over from Luke Williams, who was dismissed on 19 September following a difficult start to the season for Peterborough United. The appointment has generated discussion among fans and local businesses, with some hoping Savage's high profile could boost interest in the club and the city.
