Peterborough 0 Brighton 1

As early asthe 3rd minute Albion pressure lead to a penalty as Danny Cullip was tripped just inside the box, up steps 31 goal Zamora to tamely place the ball straight down the middle, allowing the 'Boro keeper to save with his legs.

Oh Gary Hart
After just 7 minutes, Harty seemed to fall awkwardly after a nothing challenge for the ball and was stretchered off & taken to Hospital with a suspected broken leg.

Zamora missed another easy chance in the first half before making ammends by scoring the winner and his 32nd of the Season in the 64th minute.

A Mayo long throw was flicked on by Man of the Match Danny Cullip, and Zamora half volleyed home. Peterborough Manager Barry Fry said of Bobby "When he missed the penalty I thought our luck was in. But he struck like a bolt out of the blue to win the game and that is what he is all about. A lot of people said Bobby would never score goals at this level, but he has proved all the doubters wrong and is a real gem".

Peterborough had the better of the second half and a draw would probably have been a fairer result, but at the end of the day we needed the points more.

Promotion could be ours on Sunday if Reading fail to win at Tranmere.

The Championship? Next Saturday at home to Swindon would be nice, but lets just take it one game at a time, starting with Tranny v Reading tomorrow. C'mon you Lillywhites!
