“We’ll be winning big soon enough,” MacAnthony stated before last Saturday’s 4-1 thrashing of Rochdale.
Ipswich Town might now be nervous ahead of this Saturday’s League One game at Posh as they were stuffed 7-1 in a Championship fixture at London Road in 2011.
That win features prominently in the list of the biggest wins Posh have ever achieved in the Football League.
Posh have won by eight goals once, by seven goals on three occasions and by six goals 14 times, all remembered here...
1.
9-1 v Barnet (away), Division Three, 1998. What a day! Giuliano Grazioli scored five times against a side managed by former Posh men John Still and Mick Halsall. Matthew Etherington, with a screamer, and Dean Hooper scored their first Posh goals and Jimmy Quinn netted twice. Posh even scored the Barnet goal through Mick Bodley. Barnet had two players sent off. Photo: Midlands
2.
8-1 v Oldham, home, Division Four, 1969. Posh scored eight goals at home for the first time thanks to four goals from Jim Hall (pictured), a hat-trick from Peter Price and one from Bobby Moss.
3.
7-0 v Barrow, home, Division Four, 1971. Hat-tricks for Jim Hall and Peter Price (pictured) and a goal for Ollie Conmy. Photo: Midlands
4.
7-0 v Brentford, League Two, 2007. The Bees saw their goalie sent off in the first minute, but their manager Terry Butcher was still in awe of the Posh performance. Aaron Mclean (pictured) bagged a hat-trick and there were also goals for Craig Mackail-Smith, Chris Whelpdale, George Boyd and even Rene Howe.
