For those who want to know the ins and outs:
In 1904 we sold Andy McCombie to the craas for £700
In 1905 we sold Alf Common to Boro for £1000
In 1922 we bought Warney Cresswell from South Shields for £5,500
.....all world record fees at the time!

interesting to note that even Real Madrid isn't on the list :)
 
Lose 5-1 to their greatest rivals?

I've found the answer! I was inspired by this comment. I started thinking, when have we ever lost 5-1 to Hartlepool or Darlington? Then I saw the light and Wikipedia confirmed it.
In 1935, Barcelona beat Real Madrid away 9-1.
In 1912, AC Milan beat Inter away 9-1.
In 1951, Lazio beat Roma away 9-1.
In 1981, River Plate beat Boca Juniors away 9-1.
In 1902, Juventus beat Torino away 9-1.
