Graham Westley has told Peterborough’s fans to judge him on how his team play following some negative reaction to his appointment.
The 47-year-old’s spell at Preston was overshadowed by reports of player unrest and criticism of both his management and playing style before he was sacked just over a year in charge and Posh fans have raised concerns on social media.
“Your actions are always the most important thing in football. It doesn’t matter what you say, what matters is what you do,” Westley said when unveiled by the club at a press conference.
“I was really touched [on Sunday] as news started breaking by some of the messages I got from Stevenage fans. They know what Graham Westley is all about. They’ve worked with me, alongside me, got round my team and around me over the course of time and it was fantastic to get so many genuinely deep messages.
“People wishing me well, you’re just up the road but in our hearts-type thing and those are people who are judging me, not on what they think I’m about, but on what I’ve done for the football club.
“It’s actions, not words that are going to inspire people. Whatever cynicism or scepticism there is, they’re going to watch the team and they’re going to see the confidence and energy and organisation, the verve and the drive that the team is going to play with. And it’s that they’ll ultimately judge me on. That’s all.”
