Whilst I’ve only done a very quick google I’m lead to believe it is the biggest away win in England’s top flight history
If this is indeed true, which it could possibly be then I stand corrected. |

I’ve seen us take a fair few hammerings, too. Quite a few 7s.
I have been lucky enough to have not seen any defeats larger than the 6-0 home defeat hammering by Ipswich in the 90s. I didnt go to Villa, Newcastle, Forest or Bolton for the 7 goals games. |

Apart from this one
Record away win: Port Vale 0–10 Sheffield United (Second Division, 10 December 1892)
(Was RCC around in them days)
Top flight? |

I’m pretty certain the second division isn’t the top flight. |

Can you buy tickets at the ground today?
More importantly, can you get the Adver at the ground today? |

Everton was only(!) a 6-2 defeat so thats just a 4 goal margin defeat. |

Pre match a day lost in my life in The Jubilee Oak.
At least it doesn't smell of piss in here. Not yet anyway.
I'm assuming that the clear up of fag ends and chewing gum from the High Street was an effort to impress HRH Ronnie O'Sullivan. Or a tidy up ahead of the veteran car run passing through next weekend.
It's not such a bad place.
A bog standard new town and the locals are ok.
Anyway, seems like one hundred years since we last won here.
They have scored in every league game so far. A good day for that run to end.
The game could be just like heaven if we win or the end of the world if we lose.
Give it to DJ should be the play for today.
Keep the faith.
Liking The Cure references WB. For a change of scenery from earlier visits I’m at The Jack Fairlawn next to Horley Station. Half hour bus trip to the ground from outside. Hoping to see my first victory here 2-1

Had the pleasure of the midweek 6-0 at Middlesbrough in the McMahon years. A very strange game that. Could have been 6-6. Went to the bookies for the odds on us getting relegated a few days later. They weren't taking bets. That remains the only time that I've tried to place a STFC related bet. The nice lady behind the counter did give me a sympathetic smile. |

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Crap!

Away games vs the Smoggies were never much fun even when we were playign well! The seats on the Stratton Bank were bought by the club as a job lot from Middlesborough after they demolished Ayresome Park. Useless fact. |

Crawley are without their leading scorer Bez Lubala who has 7 goals so far, Jamie Sendles-White on the bench.
