Peterborough Utd v Leicester City Friendly Matches.

[Viola19]

Two games played in the early 1960`s in Peterborough. Dates I have are 23/1/63 and 17/8/64. I`m sure one of them was played at the Brotherhoods sports ground as London road was unavailable to host the game.
Do any programmes exist ?
I am aware of the cricket match played in the early 1960`s between the clubs at the Brotherhoods venue, {a programme was produced to mark the occasion }, but the dates do not match.

Any information would be most helpful.

I have the one down has the 12/8/64 Leicester winning 3-2 I have been looking for prog a long time personally don't think there was one issued.

There was also a reserve game at Leicester 22/8/64 that finished 6-5 to Leicester and a single sheet prog was issued.

Leicester reserves also won the reverse game at LR 2-1 6/10/64 prog issued.

23/1/63 Leicester won 2-1.

Thank you.
Very interesting.

Was there a programme issued for the game played on 23/1/63 ?

Any Idea if the game took place at Brotherhoods ? Seem to remember being told a single sheet was issued, maybe just a team sheet.

23/1/63 game was played at Alma Road.

Are you a Peterborough collector if so the Up The Posh Database is a great site for info on past Posh fixtures.
