Title: Three times...
Post by: BillyStubbsTears on December 20, 2025, 07:10:22 pm
...in the past 2 years and a week, we've conceded 5 at home in a league match.

Prior to that, we'd only conceded 5 at home in a league match 3 times in the previous 32 years.
0-5 Vs Rotherham in 2021
0-6 Vs Ipswich in 2011
0-5 Vs Peterborough in 1997.

When McCann gets things working right we are a dream to watch. But when we are bad, we are truly as bad as we've ever been.

I chuck in a ray of hope.

Last time we lost 1-5 at home, we went on a run of 14 wins, 5 draws and 1 defeat from the next 20 games.

I'd take that!

In fact, the way I'm feeling at the moment, I'd take 1 win and 5 draws from the next 20 games...

I remember us losing 1-5 to Newport in the 70’s at belle vue. Stan Brookes was apoplectic at the end.

My third ever game we beat Newport 5-1 , Nov 1975, Ian Miller 8 minute hat-trick. Nothing to do with yesterday but it just came into my head
