Is my old memory pissing me about again but did I see the Villa shove six past Notts County sometime in the early eighties?  Could have been in one of the cup competitions.  I have recollections of being cold and standing on railway sleepers.

Your memory is good. 6-0 FAC3 1982, Geddes hat trick.

And the Notts County defenders backing off and some even running away from Tony Morley - just remembered full back's name Tristram Benjamin - when Morley got the ball he would try and hide behind another defender.
