What was your favourite 5-2 game at BP? There have been a few recently

Alfreton     01/10/2011
Barrow     11/10/2011
Dartford     24/09/2013
Stevenage     27/08/2016
Tranmere     27/11/2018

I have fond memories of the Alfreton one I must say.

Tranmere because we beat a half decent side.

Same level as Stevenage

Has to be Tranmere out of that initial post. Always more satisfying beating a proper Club with history.

But loving Woz's shout of that Palace game in the run-in of 2001-2002 (Andy Todd, Michael Boulding etc). We followed that one up with a 6-2 win not long after so here's hoping that repeats itself too.

Alfreton. 5-2! We should be beating the likes of them 7-0. Oh we did.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

We do have a funny habit of clustering big wins together.

Beating Gateshead 6-1 away and then following up with a 7-0 home win against Alfreton two days later one August bank holiday wasn’t bad, nor was beating Mansfield 7-2 on New Year’s Day before hammering Histon 6-1 away again just a couple of days later. The latter was under Neil Woods no less - probably as good as it got for him.

6-1 v Rotherham in the League Cup in Nov 84, followed by 5-1 v Wolves in the League.

(Just checked and we also beat Middlesborough 5-1, Huddersfield  5-1, Cardiff 6-3, and Citeh 4-1 that season. God we were spoiled).
