An ode to Sammie from Toby

Posh fan and retired headmaster Toby Wood was so moved by the returnofSammieSzmodics he penned a little ditty...

We’ve been looking for an attacking player, Onewhoexciteswithflicks and tricks;

Like a milkman the president’s delivered,

The cream of the crop - Sam Szmodics.

Other Posh fans reacted tothenewsinmoretraditional fashion in a series of Tweets to @PTAlanSwann...

Very happy as I’ve said all alongifwegetSzmodicsin, on top of what we already had, wewillbechampions. Bet now placed.

Awesome! Promotion in the bag. @mothy2401

Posh have done well to reinvest the Toney money and get the quality in under the salary cap. As an Ipswich fan, I’m not looking forward to our games v Posh (again). @tnj93

You certainly can’t fault the ambition and desire from the owners. We now havea£3.5 million forward line, in league One!

@steverodz

Hats offtoDarraghandhis co-ownerswho, eveninuncertain economic times, have once again backed the manager. Losing Ivan Toney is a big blow, but I think Posh have a squad good enough for promotion. Now it’s over to Darren Ferguson to deliver.

@poshfanupnorth

Best squad on paper since wewererelegatedfromthe Championship.

@footydaz

Fantastic news I had my doubts when Portsmouth became interested. I’m even moredesperateto get backintothestadiumnow.

@poshcricketer

Never been so sure in 20 years of watching us that this is a top 2 squad.

@ poshforever2

Great signing, really shows the club’s ambitions.
