Fergie given backing by Posh owner
Posh slid into the relegation zone on Tuesday night with a 2-1 defeat at home to Plymouth but MacAnthony has called for supporters to rally behind Ferguson, starting with Saturday's visit of Nottingham Forest.
He told the Peterborough Evening Telegraph: "Right now as a football club we have approached a crossroads. We have lost 50% of our league games and made a lot of mistakes in losing them.
"Our gates are poor and people locally do appear to have lost some faith as shown with a pathetic attendance of 6,500 Posh fans on Tuesday night.
"We didn't come to this league to be laughed at or be known as the whipping boys, we came to compete and to entertain and to excel ourselves and go even further.
"This is what my team is all about and they have not let me down yet and have not started now. They belong here and they will get us out of our current situation and there is no better manager in this country to do this with them than the one we already employ."
