Six decades of Cardiff City v Peterborough matches.

Six questions about our next opponents – answers to follow tomorrow.

60’s. Peterborough gained enough points to finish ninth in the Third Division in 1967/68, so why was there widespread anguish around London Road at the end of that season?

70’s. Name the Peterborough’s goalkeeper in their 5-2 defeat at Ninian Park in 1975/76 and how does he currently earn his living?

80’s. City’s only win at London Road was by 2-1 in 1986/87 – which locally born striker scored the winner that day?

90’s. The City team beaten 2-1 at Peterborough in 1994/95 included a young striker who had made his debut the previous season. He left City at the end of 1995/96 and dropped into Welsh non league football before signing for Barnsley three years later – can you name him?

00’s. Who was Peterborough’s manager in the notorious 4-4 game on 28 December 2009?
