Here are 10 memorable victories from that spell in charge plus two previous short spells as Posh caretaker manager...
5. 19/11/2016 Northampton 0, Posh 1.
A terrible game, but a memorable finish for Posh as Chris Forrester (pictured) headed home the only goal in the 93rd minute.
6. 26/08/17 Northampton 1, Posh 4.
It's one of football's great truisms that Posh always beat Cobblers and they did so in style at the start of the the 2017-18 season at Sixfields thanks to goals from Junior Morias, Gwion Edwards, Jack Marriott (pictured) and Marcus Maddison (penalty).
7. 23/9/17 Posh 3, Wigan 2
An outstanding game against a top Wigan side which Posh came from behind to win with two goals from Junior Morias (pictured) and one from Jack Marriott in the 90th minute.
8. 15/11/2017 Tranmere 0, Posh 5.
Danny Lloyd (pictured) hammered a hat-trick as Posh thumped 10-man Tranmere in an FA Cup replay live on TV. Jack Baldwin and Marcus Maddison (penalty) also scored.
