This interview with Peterborough United FC fan and Free Kicks Foundation spokesman Steve Thorpe takes place on the road as fans walk from Peterborough to The Nottingham Forest ground in aid of the Free Kicks Foundation charity. Broadcast at 08:25 on Friday 19th March 2010 in Paul Stainton’s BBC Peterborough Breakfast Show.

PS: Now as we mentioned earlier, POSH travel to Nottingham Forest tomorrow hoping for another victory. Hopefully keep those slim safety dreams alive. Some fans though, set off yesterday morning, a group of them walking as we mentioned yesterday, to raise money for the Free Kicks charity. They set off from London Road around eleven, we had an update, I got a text about five o’clock saying they were in Empingham, and I believe they stayed overnight at Barnsdale Lodge. Steve Thorpe is from Free Kicks. Good morning Steve.
ST: Morning Paul.
PS: You’ve lost the POSH mascot though, haven’t you? The rabbit’s gone somewhere.
ST: Yes, he bowed out around Burghley House. He had feet full of blisters, so he had to retire. He got myxomatosis I think.
