The epic 5-0 win over Man Utd was 40 years ago today. I can remember it as if it was yesterday. My Dad wanted to go home when it was 3-0 in order to beat the traffic but I persuaded him to stay and savour the event.
Many thanks go to Don Rogers, Jacko, Mel Blyth and the rest of the team for such a great day

Great game, I was on the old stand terrace and couldn't believe what I was seeing.

Don Rogers and a little later Peter Taylor were the two best players to wear the shirt.

I never tire of watching that. We were sublime that afternoon. What a shame we couldn't reproduce that form a few more times that season to see us stay up.
