Boss in no rush for new deal

Peterborough United, 18:11, February 24, 2010 ,

Boss Jim Gannon hasn't made any decisions on his long-term future at Peterborough and he isn't even giving the matter any thought.

Gannon wants to wait until the end of the season before any discussions taking place about his situation, with his focus for now solely on getting points for his relegated threatened side.
The former Motherwell boss replaced Mark Cooper at the helm last month on a three-month deal and was faced with the big task of helping Posh avoid relegation from the Championship.
He told the club's website: "It was an easy decision for me to come into the club because I was out of work and I was itching to manage and to manage in the Championship is a great opportunity for myself.
"It was an easy decision because I didn't have to think about a three-year commitment, it was just a three-month commitment until the end of the season and to try and make a difference.
"I found it very difficult being away from my family when I was in Motherwell and I think I'll find it difficult being away from my family (here). It's not a big professional decision to commit, it's going to be a massive personal decision.
"I'm still waiting for the dust to settle on that in terms of about how I feel living away from my family and how the family feel about living here away from their family.
"There's a lot to be considered but at the moment I'm not dwelling too much on that. I just want to come in and make a difference and hopefully if I make a difference people will want me to stay and we can discuss what happens after this season then."
