LONDON: Darren Ferguson wants to win a third promotion with Peterborough after his surprise return to the club.
Ferguson, the son of Manchester United manager Sir Alex, guided the Midlands club from the fourth tier to the Second Division of English football in successive years.
But the 38-year-old Ferguson left to take charge of Division Two club Preston – from where he was sacked last month with the north-west side facing relegation – in November 2009.
Peterborough have got through several managers during during Ferguson’s time away from London Road but Mark Cooper, Jim Gannon and Gary Johnson have all failed to replicate his success.
Johnson exited on Monday but a 2-1 win over Brentford on Tuesday lifted Peterborough up into fifth place and Ferguson was confident the club could make an immediate return to the Second Division.
“You’d have to say automatic promotion is still possible this season,” he told reporters on Wednesday.
