ON THIS DAY

First Division Peterborough United beat non-leaguers Kingstonian 9-1 in an FA Cup First Round replay with Tony Philliskirk scoring five of the goals. Both were club records (for a few days anyway) until the FA declared the match void and ordered a replay behind closed doors. The reason for the punishment? Kingstonian keeper Adrian Blake had been hit by a coin thrown from the crowd in the 55th minute and was replaced by an outfield player when the score was just 3-0.
