Joe made a hundred and ninety appearances for the Posh between 2008 and 2012 after signing with the Cambridgeshire-based club from Norwich City.

Excellent signing. Three decent keepers now; Marshall, Lewis, Parrish. In no particular order. Good luck to Tom Heaton Hopefully, no more Bywater fiascos. Ever !

Tugger, for once I 100% totally agree with you, I hope Joe does make the number 1 shirt his own coz that will say something about the standards of keepers we have here

I agree two good keepers we had last season but i feel this guy is better than marshall even though ive only seen him home/away and on football league show

Very good signing, however I think Marshall is better and will still be Number 1 ... Just my opinion though

Hi guys,

Posh fan here. Just thought I would give you a little heads up on Joe as we have witnessed his highs and lows over the past 4 years.

When I say highs and lows I mean a few highs but a lot more lows.

Fergie was Joe's biggest fan, and when the fans were calling for him to be dropped, Fergie stuck with him until enough was enough and since Christmas he has been our number 2 behind Paul Jones.

On his day, and that day very very rarely comes, Joe is a game winner. He has good reflexes for a guy who is 6ft 5 and is a fairly decent shotstopper, even a championship standard shot stopper. He has been involved in 3 promotions with us and has played his part.

2 years ago, there was talk of multi million pound transfers to Tottenham and Liverpool. That talk evaporated and he ended up being number 2 at a team who finished 18th in the league. He kept 1 clean sheet this entire season!

Now for the bad sides of Joes game. His kicking is very erratic, often ending up in the stands, his ability to catch the ball is unbelievably bad. His judgement on crosses is woeful. He is the quietest player on the pitch and your defence will have no confidence with him behind them. Also, for such a big guy, he literally must way about 10 stone. Ive never seen a skinnier man in my life. This often means he's scared to come for crosses or drop at a strikers feet.

He had a lot of potential, but unfortunately, after shipping almost 200 goals in 2 and a half seasons (including one promotion season), that potential seems to have disappeared.

I hope for your sake that he can get to the standard we thought he might have got to 3 years ago, but please don't think Joe is going to propel you to promotion as I fear you will be extremely disappointed.

I have a feeling he may start as your number one, and by the end of the season end up as your number 3. I certainly hope he proves me wrong though!

Good luck for next season!

Cheers,
Concerning what u say but I am 100% confident that Malky has his team of people who will work on his weaknesses cos that's exactly what they will do. Bring the best out of all players they do.

Good luck to u next season, always like going posh away, always lots of goals

Thanks for taking the time to give your assessment on joe lewis posh hammer,doesnt sound too promising to be honest
hopefully h ell improve at cardiff and give marshall competiton for the keepers jersey
good luck for the coming season
maybe we will finally do well at london road for a change

Hmmmm,

I have to take exception with the Posh fan on a couple of things.... He could have let in a million goals in two seasons but I'd say that that has far more to do with Posh's style of play and their endless attacking which left them light at the back. That style is fine if you have quality defenders but they didn't and therefor left their keeper stranded on many occasions.

Also, having reddy their thread on their message board, about 90% of them were big fans of his and are disappointed that he's left and actually blame their own fans for forcing him out. One fan doesn't give a reliable review of a player, especially when he's just left on a free.

The positives I would look at are, he's at a decent sized club now and our fans will look after him rather than slag him off. Our defence is far better with quality players that will also help him out and improve him as a keeper. He was in an England squad last season under Capello and you don't get there unless you have something about you. He's got more potential than Heaton and as some have pointed out, will probably push Marshall more than Heaton ever did

He has signed for a great club

Croeso Joe

Chose us over Ipswich!

shocking signing,
