Peterborough chief rules out move for Tomlin
Peterborough United chairman Darragh MacAnthony has ruled out the possibility of making a swoop for Lee Tomlin.
The 32-year-old left Cardiff by mutual consent earlier this week, with his spell in south Wales dogged by various injury concerns.
After going under the knife in a bid to recover from a groin injury in September, he leaves the Bluebirds after failing to make a single competitive appearance this season.
Tomlin is still held in high regard by Posh, where he racked up more than 150 appearances for the club over two spells, but MacAnthony says a return to London Road is not currently on the table.
He told The Hard Truthpodcast: " Lee Tomlin is like a young son to me, I love him to bits, but we won’t be signing him.
"We’ve had great players from the past come back to the club and it hasn’t really worked out and anyway we have about six number 10s at the club already.
"Lee will get a good club in January. He’s too good for Leagues One and Two, but if someone offered him a three-year contract on good money he would be tempted."
