Peterborough United’s local rivals Cambridge United have appointed Neil Harris as their new head coach.
Harris, who was recently sacked by League Two side Gillingham, replaces Mark Bonner who was dismissed by Cambridge just three weeks after a 5-0 thrashing at Posh.
Harris has previously managed Millwall and Cardiff City. He steered Millwall to promotion from League One via the play-offs in the 2016-17 season.
