That the 4-0 win at the Riverside is also Rovers biggest ever win in the League Cup - Home or Away

We have won 6 home League Cup matches by three goals, namely 5-2 and 4-1 on one occasion each and 3-0 on four occasions. The 5-2 was against Bradford City in 1966-67, and was actually after extra time (2-2 after 90 minutes)

King Alick scored with a brilliant overhead kick in that 5-2 over City. I’m sure that he was ten or twelve yards out as well.
