Peterborough United’s League One match at Leyton Orient has been postponed
Clubs can call a game off if three players are called up for international duty and the Londoners have now exercised that right. Posh are currently expecting Hector Kyprianou and Sam Curtis to be away with Cyprus and the Republic of Ireland Under 21s respectively, while Chris Conn-Clarke is on standby for a Northern Ireland squad. Cyprus are playing Lithuania (away, September 6) and Kosovo (home, September 9) in Nations League matches, while the Republic of Ireland Under 21 team are in Turkey (September 6) and at home to Latvia (September 10) in European CHampionship qualifiers.
Players have to have started a first-team fixture this season to count towards a postponement so Posh defender George Nevett would not count if he is called up by a Welsh age group squad. No rearranged date for the Orient game has been set.
But he still fired out a warning to his old club ahead of an eagerly-anticipated League One clash at the Weston Homes Stadium on Saturday (3pm kick off).
Ferguson spent a happy eight years in North Wales and he’s pleased to see them doing so well after a long spell in the wilderness.
He’s not surprised to see Wrexham start so well in League One after back-to-back promotions, but he believes they should prepare for tougher times to come.
“They’ve hit the ground running this season which doesn’t surprise me at all,” Ferguson said. “They have carried great momentum from last season and they have a real understanding of how they play under a manager who has been there for a long time now.
“They have been very good at home so far and they also picked up a very good point at Bolton, but they will find this season a lot tougher. They are certainly not going to run away with another promotion.
“We know we are in for a tough game though, but I am really looking forward to it. The atmosphere will be great.
