I have just checked the facts and you are correct, only 3 at Peterborough, 4 at Charlton a fortnight before. Could have been 6 at Peterborough though, their keeper had a blinder.
4-2 at Cardiff in 1984 , unlike last weeks DEBACLE we score the FOUR
Sheff Utd 5 - 4 Albion in '89. Still the craziest game I've ever seen. They were coasting 3-1 when we came back to lead 4-3 then towards the end they got the equaliser and the winner. Bob Booker got one of theirs. Entertaining to say the least.
Very memorable it was and we followed it up a few days later with a 4-2 win at Molineux. Marvellous scenes
There was another result that night that was of interest to Albion fans....
I was at that Shrewsbury game, were you amongst the group of about 30 Albion fans behind the goal ?Shrewsbury 1972, great times 0-0 HT won 5-3, long coach journey home after, we scored 5 at Halifax and 4 at Rotherham, scoring 43 away that season.
On the subject of Alex Dawson, think we won 5-1 or 5-2 and also remember John Vinnicombe saying that he should have scored five but after rounding the keeper, he rolled the ball towards the empty net, only for it to stick in the mud and be cleared.

I remember that. I think Gary Howlett ran the match.
I think we have played 24 seasons in the top two tiers and only once scored more than four goals away (4-5 at Bristol Rovers in 1959-60), and only scorec four only five times to my knowledge: Bristol City, Leicester City recently, Wolves in my time and twice before, once at Cardiff. Those four were wins. We also lost 5-4 to Sheff United in one season.
It meant that on the Saturday, if results had gone our way, we could have gone up.
After the match, there was what could perhaps be described as some 'nawtiness' between the Albion crew and the away fans from Sheffield United, on the pitch of course in true 80's stylee.
