The chairman Darragh MacAnthony has issued the following statement:
'It would appear (subject to the internet rumour-mill) that my yuletide Christmas present to our football club is to be a 'For-Sale' sign swinging serenely from the London Road entrance.
'Now there are lots of things that I have already done this week such as increasing our banking facility by a million pounds, taking two Championship players on loan and making sure to everyone at our football club that my dreams and aspirations are still 'nailed-on' that would suggest to anyone with brain-cells that these insinuations couldn't be further from the truth.
'My beloved Posh IS NOT FOR SALE at any price. Even if Sheik Rattle & Roll came along with multi-millions I would not be interested. End Of.
Much more importantly, 3 points tomorrow and Merry Christmas.
