Shocking stuff, lucky to only concede six judging by these highlights.

We played some bad stuff at Forest in the 80's, it wasn't long ago that the 4-0 defeat was on here too.

What the fuck was (the late) Paul Birch doing on 25 seconds?

Also, I reckon 0-5 at home to Forest in 1984/5 was even worse than that.

Didn't Trevor Christie score all five goals? It was horrendous.

Yes I am pretty certain it was.

First time I have seen this footage and it is a horror show - it looks like we were lucky to get away with 6-0.

And that 0-5 against Forest in 1984-5 was atrocious too. I took my younger cousin along hoping to save him from his Albion supporting Dad's clutches, and obviously it didn't work. He is now a Leeds fan, so God only knows what trauma that night caused him.

I had to turn off after two minutes we were that bad.  Puts Saturday's performance into perspective.

The 0-5 game we left with 20 minutes to go. Me and my cousin were meeting a couple of girls in town after and being so early rather than admit we'd left early for being so crap said we'd been chucked out for fighting.
