Old Sod's Army- Peterborough 1960

[bog]

Anyone recall the FA Cup tie with Peterborough back in 1960? Us in the old div one and they widely regarded as the best non-league side so for that reason were called The Posh....I think.  A 0-0 at the Cottage  and a 0-1 away replay win with Mike Johnstone scoring. 61 years ago....emm.

I remember in 1957 spending a week in RAF Ely hospital in a ward that was occupied by just myself and thee older civilians from Peterbrough.
These three guys were stong Posh fans and I spent the whole week listening to football stories about the Posh.
I really had to admire their enthusiasm for what was then a non league side and have had a soft spot for the Posh ever since.
Looking forward to another Fulham win tomorrow though.
