A Peterborough United manager who played for Leyton Orient, and two 'Os' bosses who played for Posh!

Current Peterborough United winger Kyrell Lisbie was at Leyton Orient as a youngster alongside his twin brother Kyreece.

Neither made the grade with ‘The Os’ but both have found their way into the Football League with Kyreece enjoying a fine season with League Two side Colchester United.

There are many connections between Posh and Leyton Orient, who clash at the Weston Homes Stadium in a League One fixture on Boxing Day.

Gaby Zakuani is a playing legend at both clubs, while midfielder Hector Kyprianou was a recent transfer between the clubs.

There are many others, including a couple who played for Posh who went on to manage Orient, and one who played for Orient before managing Posh.

See how many of these former players/managers you remember...
