...we last scored five consecutive goals in any league game? I can remember two high scoring games from the seventies (?) - 6-1 vs. Notts County when we were four up at half time but I think County scored first in the second half and 5-2 vs. Halifax (Killer's debut) when we were again 4-0 up at half time but Halifax scored straight away in the second half. We beat Tonbridge Angels 5-0 in an FA Cup game once and that's the only other one I can think of. Any Stattos out there? BTW, no need to think about when we shipped five in a row - I can think of several of those...
MK Dons under Parky at home. Went 1 - 0 down to Wilbraham wonder strike then got 5 in a row. We've got 2 Sodjes you've got 2 yellow cards was the chant that day.
Southampton. Put us top! Ye gods, my memory must be getting bad - it's my age, you know - thanks all.
Preston from last season (we let in 2 soft goals at the end) and mk dons from a few seasons back are the only ones I've seen...have witnessed a number of teams banging 5 past us though
Thats the one!! Think I got that and Man City destroying us by 5 at home muddled up. I don't have age as an excuse
There's good reason for the confusion - The first home game of the 1998-99 season we beat Southampton 5-0, then the first day of the 2000-01 season we beat Man City 4-0 at home.
I knew I wasn't going (too) crazy. Thanks for clearing that mess up! Ah the days of beating Man Citeh 4-0.
I seem to remember beating the posh 5-0. They had a kid in goal and nelson scored a hat trick, our first back at the valley
No, we were 4-0 up when Peterborough scored from a free kick, then we got our 5th. Thanks for reminding me of that game though, the best away day I've ever had by a mile
Thanks, that was what I thought too. I think in a way that game sums up the Parky era. 4-0 up at half time, happy fans on the terrace singing Chrissy Powell's name. Peterborough get one back in the second half and we all start worrying.
Probably my favourite away game too, never been to Peterborough apart from that game, only got fond memories of the place.
