Peterborough United re-signed George Boyd this week and he returns with some impressive stats to his name including a Posh record that is unlikely to be broken any time soon.

George scored one Posh hat-trick in an 8-2 win over Accrington Stanley at London Road in January, 2008.
George was sent off once in his Posh career in the first-half of a League One game at home to Brighton following an off-the-ball incident with Ashley Barnes in October, 2010.
George, from Kent, played twice for Scotland, making his debut in Serbia in 2013 and playing his final game against NIgeria the following year. He's pictured at training with Russell Martin, also an ex-Posh player.
George has won three promotions with Posh and one each with Hull and Burnley.
George played six times for Nottingham Forest while on loan from Posh between March-May 2010.
George scored nine goals in the top flight, the most famous for Burnley in a 1-0 win over Manchester City at Turf Moor in 2014 (right). He also scored at City in that season in a 2-2 draw.
George scored 15 League One goals for Posh in the 2010-11 season, the best scoring season of his Football League career. He's scoring against Exeter in this picture.
