We believe that the new housing development only yards from the home of Peterborough United Football Club should have streets named after people connected with POSH whether they be ex players, managers, administrators or even fans.
We feel it is disrespectful to the club and its supporters that such an integral part of the city is ignored in favour of turtles and whales.
It is our opinion the decison should be reversed and all the streets named after POSH legends after consultation with the supporters.

The feedback I have received highlights just how deep the connection is between this club and the local community. I am currently preparing a formal proposal for the council that emphasizes how much more meaningful these street names would be if they honored our own local history. Your continued interest provides the necessary weight for these upcoming discussions.

Reaching this level of support confirms that our local history and the identity of our club are deeply important to this community. It is heartening to see so many people agree that these streets should reflect the heritage of our city rather than arbitrary themes.

UTP! Would love to see a street named after my favorite players from over the years.
This is a joke. Our history should be recognized right next to the ground. Get it sorted.
Turtles and whales? really? ridiculous. keep it local.
About time. Why are we naming local streets after sea creatures when we have club legends that actually mean something to this city?
Should have been done from the start. Proper respect for the local club.
