About this book

Kicking off with the earliest newspaper reports from 1956, the book covers their most memorable games and star players, leading right up to the latest season which saw Peterborough take the EFL Trophy.

With a nickname as smooth as ‘Posh’, it’s no wonder Peterborough FC (together since 1934), have a great roster of ‘Posh players for a Posh team’. This personalised Peterborough football book celebrates some of the most famous players to date, from the likes of the London Road legend David Farrell and the skilled Tommy Robson to more recent goal machines like Jack Marriott, Ivan Toney and Jonson Clarke-Harris. 

Numerous achievements from the 20th century to the latest season, such as the 2014 Football League Trophy triumph, are immortalised through newspaper headlines of the day, giving fans a mountain of memories to reminisce. All documented newspaper coverage was reported on by those who witnessed the games first-hand. Thus, this personalised Peterborough book provides an unmatched perspective for readers about their favourite team and players.

The Football History of Peterborough United Book FAQs

How long will this book take to arrive?

Who would this football book make a great gift for?

Our football history books would make a great gift for any lover of the history of football. However, the each book is designed to appeal to fans of the individual football teams. They make a great keepsake to look back on again and again.

Are the pages real, or reproductions of newspapers?

The pages are scans of original newspaper pages. Every effort has been made to clean up scans to make them as clear as possible. In some instances there will be blemishes and the reproduction quality may not be as clear or precise as copying directly from the actual papers itself. 

What name can I enter in the personalisation?

Enter the name as you wish it to be printed on the book. You have a maximum of 13 characters for the first name and surname – which is optional. Please only use standard characters that may be part of someone's name. This include accents. Make sure to double-check your spelling.

Does the book contain every newspaper article about the team?

If we included every article then the book would be too big to print. We have edited the book to include the most interesting articles about their victories, and defeats, to tell the the full story of the team's history.
