Posh give 'big' striker free transfer

Peterborough have handed Trevor Benjamin a free transfer despite the 27 year old having two years to run on his contract.

The 6 foot 2 forward was loaned out to Swindon Town in January 2006 and made his debut against the Saddlers. The 2005/6 season was a disappointing one for the ex-Leicester front man, he scored only 4 goals in 15 starts and 20 substitute appearences for the Posh and the Robins combined.
