    We've been linked with both for a week or two now. Both on transfer list so we'd have to pay a fee, they seem to able to fill in at a couple of positions. Baldwin was named captain last year, strange that end of the season he's been listed. Coincidentally Forrester was the captain before and was stripped of it.

    I get the sense its a bit of a firesale at Peterborough, a clear out of players with a rebuilding plan to try and target promotion from League 1, funded by Darragh MacAnthony and his co-owners Jason Neale and Stewart Thompson

    So change of stance from Fry.
    Previously having said we could not afford them, they're now willing to release for between £100k - £200k each

    Peterborough director of football Barry Fry insists they won't hold Aberdeen to ransom over Jack Baldwin and Chris Forrester. Both were once rated as multi-million pound players, but Steve Evans side will now let each go between £100,000 and £200,000.
    Sounds like its a possibility to get these guys onboard

    Not seen much of Jack Baldwin but Forrester looked full of potential when he played in the Irish league.

    Seemingly it is club policy that anyone in the final year of their contract gets put on the transfer list.

    Could be decent signings but one of them was supposedly going to be signing for Bournemouth for a decent fee before he had a bad injury.

    The Peterborough fans seem to dislike Baldwin. A lot.
    Common theme seems to be he can’t defend, makes too many mistakes.
    Not seen any feedback on Forrester.

    We have had a few unpopular captains as well,Foster,Kerr and Whyte spring to mind.
