Liverpool beat us 6-0 at the shrine on a Boxing Day and remember us doing Barnsley 7-0 and a non league team... Harlow ? 8-0 in FA cup. Can anyone beat those ?
We beat Marlow 6-0 in the first round of the cup in '91 and Aylesbury 8-0 in '92. I was at both, and until the floodgates opened, the tension at the prospect of another "Woking" was palpable!
Bomber, that 7-0 defeat at Ipswich was largely the influence of Trevor Whymark. He ran riot that night, and Ossie was left in no man's land. It's not pretty viewing, but the TV cameras were there.
As for Saturday? Glad for the point in the end. Really need to try and make up for it with a win against either Leicester or Newcastle, though.
