This thriller still gets shown on Sky TV now. Posh were twice two goals behind.

The greatest atmosphere ever experience­d at London Road.

Old Trafford), May 2011.

An emotional day as Darren Ferguson triumphed at his father’s stadium. Won by three late goals in seven minutes.

Great game, Dave Farrell singing his own name and a manof-the-match award for Posh boss Barry Fry.

A debut goal for TonyPhilli­skirk to soften the blow of losing Ken Charlery to Watford. 9) Posh 1, West Brom 1, FA Cup fourth round replay, WestBromwo­nonpens,February, 2016.

Posh played well for the last time under Graham Westley, very well actually before losing in a penalty shootout to a Premier League team.

10) Posh 1, Sheffield Wednesday 0, Championsh­ip April, 2013.

A must-win game against relegation rivals on the penultimat­e Saturday of the season. The match was won by a late Grant McCann free-kick. Thankfully the next match wasn’t on TV.
