[stevenqoz]

A 6-0 win against Birmingham stands out in my memory. Anyone know when it was?

Anyhoo, 3-1 today I guess. COYS!

FA Cup 6th round replay at the Lane in 1967 is the one that stands out, but we put six past them at least twice in the early 60s.

Just checked the others on Topspurs. November 1960, with Jones and Dyson getting two apiece and White and Smith with one apiece, and 6-1 in 1963: a Greavesie hat-trick, White, Smith and Dyson again.

Also 7-1 in 1957, with Alf Stokes netting 5 (!) and 6-1 again in 1926.

Indeed.

 

[TheChosenOne]

I would take any win today.

It'll help us creep up the table into the nether regions for the moment and starting to play catch-up for a euro-spot via the loeague.

I think he is still on holiday in the US.

Cheers nidge, don't think I ever knew he'd gone away...

a win and no injuries or red cards that'll do me big-time - as long as we don't achieve it by constant fouling or cheating I'm not too bothered by the score or the style

I remember listening to the 6-0 v Brum on the radio - and my Dad being an Arsenal fan belitting it - did it bother me, not at all - I loved it and loved it even more when we both sat in our living room and watched us win the the FA Cup
