Peterborough United were last night refusing to comment on reports they have sacked manager Darren Ferguson.
The Posh have made a poor start to life in the Championship having achieved back-to-back promotions in their previous two campaigns.
Ferguson only signed a new four-year contract in the summer, but reports now claim he has left London Road.
Posh management including director of football Barry Fry and chief executive officer Bob Symms are understood to have met with Ferguson on Monday, but refused to comment on the speculation as they left London Road.
