    Paul Conway must have distracted their keeper.

    If they stump up half a million pounds, they can appeal the result.

    Force majeure, I understand.

    The most goals I've ever witnessed in a game was 11.

    It was a similar scenario. AFC Barnsley went a goal down in the first 5 minutes and won the game 10-1.

    I don't recall the opposition (Dinnington Town rings a bell), and I can find very little reference to AFC Barnsley at all online, other than their league positions.

    Quick tangent..... when was the last time we scored 5 in a game? I can't recall at all.

    That would probably be it. I don't recall the game at all though, but I didn't see much football at all last season.

    It was an entertaining game, with some very questionable defending. I think it was in the midst of Chaplin’s purple patch and he got a hat trick.

    They play again tomorrow (Sheffield United), so they presumably picked an under age team.

    I am not sure what kind of team they put out & they were actually winning for a while so I am presuming nothing, but in this day & age it is rare at this level of the game to concede 11 goals in a match .

    I watched a pre-season friendly, god knows how long ago, where The Reds scored 10. We beat Hearts of Oak, Accra, 10-0. Think they might have been a Ghanaian team.
    Wish I could recall the year....

    Thank you for that, Brunner. I was beginning to doubt myself about it

    We beat them 10-1 in 1970. In 1975, we beat Maltese team Gudja United 16-0 (John Peachey scored 5 goals).

    Just because they are a Rugby town doesn't mean they need a Rugby score.
