🎙️ Welcome to our latest episode of Up The Poshcast – the number one Peterborough United fan podcast, made by the fans, for the fans.

In this jam-packed Summer Series episode of Up The Poshcast, Harry, Ashley, and Max dive into all the latest Peterborough United news – from the newly launched 2024/25 home kit and its controversial “Legends List” to exciting transfer news and frustrating contract sagas.

🟦 Home Kit Reaction

We’ve got first impressions of the brand-new PUFC home shirt – arguably one of the best kits in years. But while the design impresses, the selection of player names printed on it has divided opinion. We break down the legends included, those who were snubbed, and whether fans should have been consulted.

🔁 Transfer News

We discuss the signing of Declan Frith from FC Thun, his Premier League 2 experience, and whether he can be a star at London Road. Plus: How do Odoh, Lisbie, Hayes, and Frith shape up as our winger options?

💰 Contract Chaos & Financial Insight

With key players like Malik Mothersille, Archie Collins, and Harley Mills still not signing extensions, we debate whether it's time to cash in or risk losing them for nothing. Harry even shares financial insights from the club’s official accounts – including some eye-opening details on club debt and sustainability.

💔 Ricky-Jade Jones Joins St. Pauli

The shock news broke live during recording: Ricky-Jade Jones has left for Bundesliga side FC St. Pauli, leaving Posh empty-handed. We give our instant reaction and debate whether Ricky let the club down or simply did what was best for his career.

🎓 Coach Changes

Goodbye Dale Tongue, hello Kevin "Rooster" Russell. We talk about the backroom shake-up and why Rooster’s return could be one of the most important signings of the summer.

🏟️ Pre-Season Schedule & Stadium Tours

From Leicester City to Grimsby Town, we walk through the pre-season plans and discuss how a tough July schedule could set the tone. Plus – shoutout to the club’s off-pitch wins: stadium tours, photo events, and fan engagement.
