Just checked...won before by 5 goal margin in National over last 20 years - without scoring six.
In North beat Hinkley 8 nil and beat Boston 6-1 and 7-1. Also beat Droylsden 6 nil.
Plenty of five goal margins in North
-
This is the biggest winning margin since ?

In top flight....looks like March 22 beat Weymouth 5nil...April 2016 beat Welling five nil and Feb 2010....beat Salisbury 5 nil

Did we beat Merthyr Tydfil 9-2 ? or has my medication not kicked in yet !
I also remember a 6-1 win at the Drill Field one Tuesday night, what fun :D maybe the Cheshire Cup ?

I remember that we beat Cambridge U 5-0 at home in 2007, but can't remember any more at National League level.

I think it was the biggest win since Merthyr Tydfil's 9-2, but I seem to remember us beating Boston United 6-3 during that season 90-91. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong though, may be another game since then but can't think of one currently.

We did 7 at Alfreton in the North too in that purple kit... wasn't the 7th a James Jones rocket into the top bins from memory...?

See the above for memory jog....

Yesterday marked the first time that we have scored six goals in the top flight of Non League football since a 6-2 victory at Boston United on Wednesday, 27th February 1991.

The 9-2 home win over Merthyr was 11 days before the 6-2 win at Boston and came during our record 28 match unbeaten run , we were flying , though the season was destined to end in huge disappointment of course . Memories from the York Street thrashing include Asa Hartford playing for Boston and in the bar afterwards rival bosses Peter Morris ( Kettering ) and Martin O' Neill ( Wycombe ) deep in conversation !
-
Yes. Although the long unbeaten run was fantastic, I seem to recall there was a high proportion of draws in there which didn't really help us
-
Possibly Brian , though the late season collapse caused by the log jam of matches with a tired wafer thin team/squad is what did for us .
-
I agree Pete. That was the main factor undoubtedly.
Can't help thinking if we'd have been full time then, we'd have had a better shot but, as you say, the games just came too fast to handle at the end.
