Just to be pedantic on question 6. We didn't play against the crowd. We played against the team. It doesn't matter how many people are in the crowd, it is still 11v11.

:raspberry:

 

[CyrilSneer]

That was a shocker of a game that 6-1 defeat to palace. I left at 5-0 back to the cherry tree. Only knew we had scored by the teletext on in the pub.

But not as bad as the defeat in league cup 6 years earlier 9-0 with Wright and Bright both getting hatricks ! Thats my worst defeat since 1968 !

 

[eastling]

That nine nil defeat was a definite shocker...
