Why?

[DTCwordfan]

that goes to United vs Ipswich 9-0 in 1995. and 1-8 for an away win (Man Utd vs Forest)

I am not a Utd fan by the way - more Liverpool, and even more the oval ball.

Anyway re the stats,

Largest wins: Newcastle United 13–0 Newport County (Second Division;1946)
Stockport County 13–0 Halifax Town (Third Division North, 1934)

Here's a clue DT. WBA and Nottm Forest share the record

[DTCwordfan]

Dont see Wolves or WBA on that list, only one of your rivals for you, Birmingham City.

DT and TheTruthHere. Sorry, yu are both wrong. The question mentioned 'top flight'. Answer is:
West Bromwich Albion's record victory was their 12–0 league win against Darwen on 4 April 1892. This is still the widest margin of victory for a game in the top-flight of English football, although the record was equalled by Nottingham Forest when they beat Leicester Fosse by the same scoreline in 1909.

[mightyWBA]

In 1892 they reached the FA Cup final (after losing in semi finals in 1889 and 1891) where they met local rivals Villa. They won the game 3-0 gaining revenge for the earlier defeat. Three years later Villa were again their opponents in the FA Cup Final. Villa scored after 39 seconds of the game and won 1-0.

On 4th April 1892 Albion set a record which still stands for the top division of English football beating Darwen 12-0.

Just to rub it in..Lol...sorry Cazz..An extract from "Boing!" fanzine..We cling to stuff like this in BaggieLand :-)

[DTCwordfan]

I agree you cling to such results - over a 100 years ago.

No wonder the Baggies are where they are if all look backwards and not forwards to the future.
